Fun Adventure

Last night I went on a fun adventure. First a little backstory is necessary.
I really like this song called "Somebody Told Me" by a band called The Killers. It is played on the radio here a lot, you can listen to it here: Killers Music .
Turns out The Killers are playing a small show in Seattle this Saturday at a club called Neumo's. Tickets are only $10, but there's a $3.50 "[in]convience" charge if you buy them online. So I had the brilliant idea that we should go buy tickets at the box office, and combine it with having dinner somewhere in Seattle.
It should now be obvious that "fun adventure" was meant ironically as this barely qualifies as adventureous (though we did go to two places we hadn't been before).
So Scott, Erin, Adele, Luke and I went to dinner as T.S. McHugh's, an Irish pub in Queen Anne. We picked it more or less at random off the list of restaurants that take the Prime Card. Then we dropped Luke off (he lives in Seattle and took the bus to work) and went to get tickets. Neumo's uses the Bad Juju Lounge as their ticket office, which seems really strange. Tragically, they didn't have any tickets left. I think they only allocate a certain # to be sold at the "ticket office" and the rest are available online. What a ripoff. So long story short, I ended up getting the tickets online anyways. But at least we had a fun adventure.
