Lupe Fiasco
Ego check for one of the largest egos in the game. Dude was Lupe enough to think he could fill the Memorial Coliseum (9,000+ capacity), and ended up cancelling due to low ticket sales. Now he's playing the Schnitz (2.800 capacity), and those who purchased tickets to the cancelled event get their own private presale. This means less than 2,800 people purchased tickets to his arena show, and the tickets to the new show are much cheaper. What a Fiasco.

For Sale: Justice Ticket(s) for Face Value Plus Fees ($48)
Justice
Roseland, Portland
Tuesday, April 24th
I only have one extra ticket available at this time, but might have more closer to the show. You know the deal, I hate scalpers, and want people to understand they don't have to freak out and pay double face value for sold out tickets. There are people in this world who are not looking to fuck you over.
Drop me a couple lines letting me know you are a real person, and not a scalper. The show is sold out, and I'll get several replies, so I'll pick the reply I feel is most legit. I don't subscribe to the "first come first serve" theory. I probably won't reply to the winner right away, so if you are still reading this, it means the ticket is still available. I'll remove the craigslist add when the ticket is sold, and update this post stating the ticket has been sold. Email me at knowidyuh@gmail.com if interested.
