Kilt Power!

[Chefdave]

So Flogging Molly was in town last night and the show was completely sold out...

I'd forgotten to buy tickets in time and had exhausted all of my "connections" to either get on the guest list or get some comp tickets. About 15 minutes before the band was set to go on, my girlfriend and I stopped by the ticket office to see if any tickets had become available. The doorman assured me that the show was totally sold out, there was nothing he could do, and that we were plain out of luck.

We turned and left.

As the door closed behind us, I heard him say "Hey! That guy's wearing a kilt!" Just then the doorman ran out and stopped us on the sidewalk. "Come back in 20 minutes and I should be able to get you in for free."

And he did.

Net result from being kilted:
-2 tickets to an awesome sold out show
-$50 saved
-Extra needed ventilation in a hot, crowded concert hall
-LOTS of props from folks
