The Glenn Miller Orchestra in Shreveport

Oh for crying out loud! How much would I love to go see this!!!!

But $200 for tickets ($100 each) is out of my league. Not to mention the $2500 ones, or the $5000 ones! Wonder what you get with THOSE tickets?!

Steve and I love doing stuff like this, and we went often to the free military band concerts that would occasionally come through. I realize this is a fund-raising thing for the Shreveport Opera but they're pricing a lot of folks out of even trying to go.

But heck, if Stacy McCain can get to Pasadena, maybe if I rattle the tip jar, I can get to downtown Shreveport. Stranger things have happened.

Update: Fishersville Mike has a suggestion to help me out, but heck, I might actually come up with $1500 to see those chickens!!

Update 2: I like Stacy's advice in the comments; I think he's on to something! There's something to be said for strategic marketing.
