Ah, yes. The one and only time I attended the parade -- I think maybe 2004 or 2005? -- the M&M balloon toppled a street light and hit some bystanders. Oops.
Hey Jesso, I totally agree with you. I like to think that messing with scalpers was White's intent, only because I think the guy has been responsible for some pretty perfect rock songs and that explanation at least helps rationalize his behavior in my mind. But in reality, of course he's also punishing the actual fans who bought tickets, which I assume was the majority of the audience. And that sucks. If I had paid anywhere near $60-$90 for a ticket, I would be pretty bummed about the show, too. Hopefully, you'll have better luck next time!
Henrrryyy!
@Gaby: Oh, no! Noel didn't really say that (see "for make believe" in the headline). I was just having fun, though I can't imagine he was a happy camper. By all means, please continue idolizing him.

Oh, wow. You are so right. That actually makes me like them more.
All that bit about the pronoun... you're killing me, man. You'll be missed, Mark.
