“Professionalism is the death of rock and roll.”
That’s funny. I remember being stuck in a ticket like for 2 hours with their manager, their booking agent, 3 people from their publicity company and their road manager. On the other hand, we were all stuck in the ticket line while Metric was playing - the whole lot of them were late to the gig - so maybe they’re not too professional...

Though, I’m sure the site has been under attack. There are lots of reports of hackers. It might have something to do with that. Or they may just be idiots.
