Heh. Do the Fark tech guys measure for the most thread views to the least clicks ratio?

You know who else sold out shows?

I'm wondering if they'll add Diesel, Total Coleo, Toni Basil, Frida, Gang of Four, Buckner & Garcia, Haircut 100 and Aldo Nova to the bill...

This is, quite honestly, the best news I've heard in several days.

Maybe I should be ashamed to say so, but I would actually pay to see a show of some of those acts. Some, mind you, not all, and Mr. Astley, I mean you when I say that......

I'm so glad that link didn't go to a Youtube site.

Is it bad that I purposely Rick Roll myself?

They were the first band I ever saw live back 93' (or was it 94'?)

On a slightly related note, the Borders store by me got RickRoll'd recently.

Someone set up the public search computer in the music section so that any search you did turned up one and only one result: Rick Astley's Greatest Hits.

reminds me of when as a snot-nosed punk I would go into K-Mart's electronics dept. and enter this into all of the Commodore 64s:

10 PRINT "fark YOU"
20 GOTO 10
RUN

I was gonna put the link to a particularly annoying rickroll site in the startup folder in the main computer at work on my last day. Alas, they were watching me too closely.
