Wow, is it me or have the prices for HOB go up over the past couple of years? And even when advertised price is seemingly reasonable, you still end up paying a lot more after the venue hits you with all the hidden extra charges. Even for tickets purchased at the venue's own box office weeks in advance.
The girls selling beer to the people standing in line are the only HOB staffers who are not indifferent and downright rude. All patrons are treated like dirt because the venue is the only somewhat decent music venue of it's size in the area. So no matter how many people get alienated by the staff, more will always show up and pay through the nose for the pleasure of standing in line for hours, waiting an extra hour in the hot sun or freezing rain because doors never open on time. If the band puts you on the guest list, you get treated like dirt too. To the HOB staff ALL music fans are created equally unworthy of basic manners and basic human kindness.
