Dearest Matt,
While I feel for you in this time of crisis, I feel a rash reaction would do no justice to the situation at hand. I would adivse a policy of total and utter inaction, and attend neither of the two concerts, instead coming to a fine residence such as 156 University Commons, and bemoaning your lack of entertainment over some fine Canadian ale.
Thank you for your prompt attention to my esteemed opinion on such a sensitive subject.

Dear Chief Justice Bonus:
I would like to thank you for your valuable contribution to our democratic discussion that so clearly in the minds of all of us. Your invitation of ale and whining is appreciated as a token of friendship among diverse and often conflicting musical allegiences.
However, I regret to inform you that, as Director of Homeland Music, I will with certainty attend one or the other of these fine concerts. Perhaps you and your constituents (like Scott, who also seems to like neither band) would be willing to meet at a different time or date, with the same purpose to which you want to help us strive: to bemoan our lack of entertainment and get good and sozzled on Labatt’s.
Again, your country thanks you for your contribution.
May God Bless Tesla,
Matt.

My Compatriot Matt,
In light of your well thought out and timely response, allow me to cordially invite you and yours to a reception at my humble abode (time and date to be later determined), for the express purpose of that mentioned above, the lack of entertaining entertainment, and in our display of complaint thereof, to “get good and sozzled”, as you say.
Let me make one final reccommendation, as to your insistence of attending one of the two productions. Since one of the two choices, that being “Rusted Root”, is a earthbound organism prone to oxidation, one would say one’s health may be in danger by attending such a display. In light of this, it is the reccommendation of this court that the respondent seek out accomodations and admittance to the sequence-loving avarian spectacle, otherwise known as “Counting Crows”. It is so ordered.

All of you should quit your whining and do something constructive with your lives. Join the military and help America’s war. Well, that would probably be destructive. But atleast it gets you away from the question of concerts. When you are sitting in a hot trench in the middle of Iraq you won’t care who is playing the USO show. You’ll just get your ass over there.

(sniffle) Matt left me out of his stew…

It wasn’t Matt’s stew, you gotta talk to the Iron Chef’s kid sister, the Political Chef… She’s the one that came up with this concoction… 🙂
And Jason, as far as the USO show, I’m dismissing ruling on that case due to non-original jurisdiction on the part of the Court. Take it up with fine folks in the Army’s Military Music Court…
