It is certainly going to teach all the fools here in Seattle that paid $300 for scalped tickets a lesson. I don't think they'll be able to return those for full purchase price. F scalpers and F concert tickets over $30.

Acute anxiety? Could it have anything to do with having such young children on the road and pondering their combined crappy parenting?

BOO to YOU, Meg & Jack!

I doubt they will be missed much. Acute anxiety, give me a break. I worked with a torn ligament in my knee once, and it's restaurant work, not an office.

Aaa-Cute Anx- IETY, that’s why your so bizarre. Aaa-Cute Anx- IETY!!!

(sung to “ High Anxiety” the Mel Brookes movie)

I interpret this as Meg has her head up her ass and can’t get her “act” together.

She better check herself into a decent “facility” to get cured.

Laime!

”THE SHOW MUST GO ON!!!” is what a real rocker would say.

You just knocked 2-stars off of your 3 star act!

“This one goes to 1” is what Nigel Tufnel would say!

and in reply to INITFORTHEMUSIC, first off gabriela canceled 6 shows, a total of 9 days, these dudes are taking a month off and cancelling 18 shows. And gabriela actually rages her instrument, that white stripes chick, well, doesn't, at all.

YAH BOBERTJOHNSON HAS A GOOD POINT. You dont have to work hard to play what meg plays. and gab is a slayer. Stop lying to yourself everyone, the only reason you like meg is because her very nice boobs bounce when she plays...

I just think that the sheet of acid I fed her at Bonnaroo is still messing with her head.

If you comment twice on this post, I believe that means you care. Otherwise, I imagine you would have ignored this story.
