Today, it was the concert of my life. I had bought tickets the minute they went on sale, and I'd anxiously waited until the concert date. Thirty minutes before the show, my friend got so drunk that we weren't allowed in, and I was stuck babysitting her all night in the hotel, completely missing the show. FML

Today, I went to a concert. One of my favorite bands was performing, and I'd had the ticket for seven months, with a great seat for the show. It was all going perfectly, that is until a guy twice my height sat in front of me. FML

Today, I drove 150 miles to see one of my favorite singers in concert. Before I got out of the car I checked to make sure I had the tickets. Did I have the tickets? Yes. Were they for today's concert? Nope. FML

Today, I got on a two hour train ride to go to a concert. I had been so caught up in handling the train tickets that halfway to the concert, I realized I had left the concert tickets on my dresser. FML

Today, my friend and I drove three hours to attend a U2 concert. We had been psyched about the tickets for weeks because they were awesome seats (my early Christmas present). After a long drive, we get to the venue and I realize in horror that I left tickets at home, on my desk, three hours away. FML

Today, I arrived at work to find an email from the manager whom I had bought concert tickets from the night before. He said he had actually sold those tickets to someone else. He still expects to be paid. FML

Today, I was supposed to take a test, but the professor didn't have it ready because he went to a concert last night. I sold my own tickets to that very concert in order to study for the test. FML

Today, I was supposed to be going to Edinburgh to see my favourite band live. I was expecting to be picked up at 8 a.m. for the drive there, but I woke up to a text saying my friend bought tickets for the wrong city. The show he paid was for 2 days ago. FML

Today, I finally got to attend the concert I have been anticipating for weeks. The band was great. The drunk guy sitting behind me yelling profanity and out of tune lyrics in my ear throughout the entire show, however, was not. FML

Today, I bought tickets for my friends and me to go to a concert. While I was in the shower, they ditched me and took my girlfriend. FML

Were you not excited for it? When I buy tickets, I mark up the date of the concert/event all over my planner, calendar, phone, fridge... And I even call off work and ignore all my responsibilities for that one night.

Get a filofax. Or a phone. And use the calendar.

Well, bad luck, we all mess up sometimes, just be happy you didn't have to face the music.

How? I am a very forgetful person but I would never forget something like my favorite band/singer. Oh well, it sucks and it has already happened!

did you not check the date on the tickets, or not write it down anywhere as a reminder? something like that, would be written EVERYWHERE!

Ahh, I feel you. I would definitely forget these things if my boyfriend didn't remind me. I'd probably remember a month in advance but some things you have to book a whole year in advance...I definitely wouldn't remember.

Ya, I totally understand how op did this. It's one thing if she just bought the tickets recently, but when you buy things in advance like that (and if you don't write it down in a calendar right away) then it's easy to get distracted with all the other issues and plans life brings. I think the trick is to write it down in your calendar (on your phone or even sticky notes on your mirror or something) the exact moment you bought the tickets. If you don't write it down right away, than its easy to forget about it with the business of life. Sorry you missed the concert and paid all that money. Hopefully your tickets weren't too expensive because you bought them in advance.
