Something I Regret

I was incredibly, incredibly excited about seeing New Order and the Bad Lieutenants later on this month at Webster Hall in NY...especially with Bernard Sumner's promises of a live set heavy with his substantial back catalogue.

Then, last night, Ticketmaster kindly emails me to inform that the show's been cancelled-in essence, very very quickly shattering my evening and giving me a, erm, blue monday. I felt a lot of confusion, and was quite shellshocked. One glance at my silent face simply said "leave me alone", and...

ok, ok, I'm done. I'm done. I promise.

A quick trip to the Bad Lt. Facebook page reveals that, apparently, the entire U.S. tour is nixed and people are, fittingly, upset.

I'll be even more pissed if it turns out that they'll still be in New York, just solely opening for The Pixies, also known as the worst fucking band ever. Gouge away, indeed.

As such, I'm forced to cry into my coffee and watch this: Bernie Sumner and co doing an acoustic "Bizarre Love Triangle" in Paris.

Now all I'm left with is the temptation to fly to the UK to see them open for the Pet Shop Boys, and... and, ok, no, really, I'm done. But c'mon, what the fuck gives, Bad Lieutenant?

Pixies is "the worst fucking band ever"? You've clearly never listened to Creed.

p.s. I do agree Pet Shop Boys is a better matchup.
