Guys, I just had this epiphany, but I am not sure whether I should risk it or not.....

My favorite group, Ace of Base, is going to be performing at "Night of the Proms" - a live, orchestrated concert for a series of dates this October and November in Antwerp, Belgium. There will also be other artists like Donna Summer, Roger (from The Who), Safri Duo, etc, etc.

The tickets are not as pricey. The cheapest are about 18 Euros (about $22 USD). The place still has tickets left to purchase.

Now, I originally didn't want to have the guts to purchase tickets and the plane tickets for fear I am not going to have enough money. But..... today I ran airline searches and they have gone down in price. So, I am getting an inkling to go.

I don't want to go for fear, but I want to go "just because" they are my favorite group AND a lot of my friends (fellow fans) are also going. So it's going to be like a fan hangout/party, too.

Decisions! Decisions!! :(

If you can afford it and can take off time from work/school then do it. Sounds like it would be fun.:)

DEFINITELY GO!!!!! Do you think you will be seeing them again? If the answer is "no," then what are you doing sitting here? Buy the tickets (I think €18 is a VERY good price!). Buy the airline tickets. Get 'em while they're still cheap. Plus, you get to visit another country in the process. It'll be loads of fun! :cool:

GO FOR IT!AS LONG AS IT DOESNT' BANKRUPT YOU...

I agree with everyone else :) I mean, you might never have this opportunity again, or at the very least not for a long time. You'll regret not going and you'll wonder what could have been-- I say go for it! It'll be an experience you'll remember forever ( and, hey, doesn't hurt if it doesn't break the bank ;) )

GO and enjoy yourself.

I'd go for it.:)

You only live once. Go for it and have a great time!

PLEASE GO, it sounds like a lot of fun and you do only live once...:)

i say if you can then by all means go . by the way i like ace of base too

do it. if it doesn't work out, you tried, it's better than stressing yourself over what could have been.

Definitely treat yourself!

GO!!! have fun you party animal! ;) :P

Awwwwwww....... thank you all for your sincere, supporting comments!! You are all TOO sweet! http://3.forumer.com/html/emoticons/aob/hug.gif

My problem with today's decision/feelings is that I think it won't be a good idea. I won't go bankrupt or anything, but I'll end up feeling guilty AND will have to REALLY have to scrimp and save.

What was helping was that my overtime at work REALLY has helped me get more money, but then that means working MORE hours. I don't know. I'm fluctuating now. *bites nails*

Ohhh.... :(

by the way i like ace of base too
Do you really? You rock!!! :rock:

Oh, my gosh! After the first concert last night (a series of multiples until November 14th on certain nights), just hearing from my fellow fans how fun it is and seeing the pictures, hearing the recorded audio clips, etc... just makes me want to go!!

Even worse - these fans ALSO had a chance to have an exclusive one-hour MEET with Ace of Base with backstage passes!!!!!!!!! Oh, my freakin' gosh!!!!!!!!! :eek: I sooooooooo wanna go!!! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Another plan - I am going to see if I can borrow some money from my mom. Please cross your fingers she'll say "yes." If she does, I am ON my way to Belgium at the end of the month!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's a pic of the three members (Jenny, Ulf and Jonas).... *swoons*

Yay!!! I have my tickets AND my flight reservations booked!! I'll be leaving on the 26th of October around noon and won't be back until the 1st of November (late at night).
