gaga tix

so a friend at work had a pair of gaga tickets and she asked me if i could help her sell them because she had to get rid of them. so my first instinct was like, i'll buy them. well i forgot that i was going to a sort of reunion on the same day of the concert. one of my friends is back home for a short period of time, and a bunch of my other friends who haven't seen each other in a really long time are getting together. me being a good friend decided not to buy the tickets, and i was sure they were gonna sell in seconds. to my surprise they didn't go that fast. the person was willing to get rid of them for a pretty great deal, seeing as how the cheapest tickets through ticketmaster were $195. they did end up selling, but i found it astonishing after trying to get tickets to the past 8 shows in nyc and having no luck, no one that i knew needed tickets.
