Those poor bastards! I got my ticket for Fargo from Ticketmaster! September 29th can’t come quick enough!!!

Springsteen Fans Sold Fake Tickets
They thought they had the hottest ticket in town ó but dozens of Bruce Springsteen fans were disappointed Saturday night.
At least 100 people were turned away from the show at Washington’s MCI Center because the tickets they bought from scalpers were fake.
Many of the people with the worthless tickets had traveled hundreds of miles to see “The Boss” on his U.S. tour.
Police arrested a few suspected scalpers.
Springsteen opened a 46-city tour of North America and Europe on Wednesday night at the Continental Airlines Arena in his home state of New Jersey.
Half of the 22-song set Wednesday came from Springsteen’s new album, “The Rising,” chiefly inspired by last year’s terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon.
“The Rising” rose to No. 1 in its first week, selling about 526,000 copies. The figures, released Wednesday by Nielsen SoundScan, represent the best debut of Springsteen’s career.
The album is Springsteen’s first with longtime collaborators the E Street Band since 1984’s smash “Born in the USA.”
The 10-member band features crowd-favorite saxophonist Clarence Clemons, Springsteen’s wife Patti Scialfa and Steven Van Zandt ó who also appears on HBO’s “The Sopranos.”
