Excerpts from emails strewn across a bedroom floor


I am seeing Clap Your Hands Say Yeah next month in Phoenix. This is from my confirmation email from ticketweb:
JARED *******, you have purchased the following:
-----------------------------------------------
Ticket face value: 10.00
Service fee: 3.27
Total charges: 13.27

I am seeing Clap Your Hands Say Yeah on New Year's Eve in NY at Irving Plaza. This is from my confirmation email from the devil:
Seat location: section GA
Total Charge: $36.10

It's too easy to rant about ticketmaster. Instead, I am going to list ideas of how I can deal with how absurd this is:

-light my head on fire
-write "clear channel" on a napkin and pee on it
-light your head on fire
-clap my hands, say no

I am open to suggestions.
