Your Ticket to Not Missing the Show
There’s no worse sin than an unused concert ticket!

I’ve seen it happen far too many times, especially to women. You get there early to get close to the stage and wait. Finally, after what feels like forever, the line starts to move but you know it’s worth the wait. You work your way through security, only to be turned away at the front door.
“You can go in but your purse can’t. It’s too big,” your told, often by a man. Because obviously no woman or murse lovers would say there is such a thing as a purse that’s “too big.”
I’ve had this happen to me more than I care to admit: at graduation, a show and a minor league hockey game I didn’t even want to attend. Venue rules keep changing as to what’s allowed in. To make sure I never miss a show, I’ve developed the following concert survival kit. Adopt my strategies and so you, too, can enjoy the show. Afterall, there’s no worse sin than an unused concert ticket!
