Do I go or do I not go? Free concert ticket available
We have 8 inches of snow here in Delaware.

My friend has tickets to see Robert Plant tonight. I didn't get tickets this time, not sure why but not really into his new sound. However I read where he's doing some of my favorite LZ songs as part of his set so now I'm thinking perhaps I wouldn't mind going to see him in concert.

My friend is not using the ticket, she isn't going to drive in this snow. Me, I have an AWD Subaru and I could probably survive going by myself (the other 2 tickets her relatives have and they live a few hours away - those tickets are toast).

Do I risk it?

1. Why not? If it's not going to cost you anything, and you aren't afraid
of the snow, what do you have to lose? I wouldn't be too crazy about going alone, but if you're okay with that you might as well go.

2. I've gone alone to concerst twice now
First time was Jimmy Page in concert and only because my friends coming in from out of town got lost so I really had no choice.

Second time was Roger Water's Dark Side tour. I had just seen the concert the night before and was amazed. As a fluke I looked to see what tickets they had available and there was a single ticket in the 10th row - so I said 'why not'.

But I will say the only thing that really keeps me from doing this is a bit about the snow and alot about the location. It's not in the best neighborhood for the concert.

3. Well, I'd say skip it then.
You don't need to be alone, in bad weather, in a shitty location. :scared: You can always catch him the next time he's around.

6. I wouldn't, but knowing
how much you enjoy LZ, you might think differently about it. I'm really surprised it hasn't been cancelled due to the weather.

:hi:

10. Did you go?
Was it good? Are you stuck in a snowbank? Should we send out the St Bernard with the brandy?

12. I don't know,
is the concert in Philly? 95 looks like it's pretty clean and if it's at Wells Fargo Center, then it's pretty easy on and off.

But if you're only going to enjoy part of the show, I don't know if it's worth it.

13. if the streets are OK for you to drive i vote GO
i'm kinda anti social and i always think i will have a miserable time at concerts but i have made a firm rule that any time i get a free concert ticket i check it out

i'm always surprised to find out how much i enjoy myself

risk it as long as safety ain't an issue, i don't know how good they are at clearing roads in delaware but probably they're pretty good at it?
