Black Market

Hey, speaking of Lewis Black: If you've never seen him perform live, you're missing a very wonderful experience. Tomorrow morning, tickets are going on sale for concert dates between October 6 of this year and November 19. He'll be in New Jersey, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee. The schedule is on this page.

Now, here's what you do if he's playing close to you and you wanna see him. Join his fan club, which you can do on that page. It only costs $20 and you'll save way more than that if all you ever do is buy two tickets to one of his shows — and you'll also get better seats. Sign up today and then tomorrow at 10 AM Pacific Time, go to that same page and order tickets.

It's a great deal but you've got to act fast. When he played Los Angeles last year, I paid $75 apiece (plus some handling fees) for four spots in the center of the third row. Scalpers were later offering worse seats for $300 each.
