Jason Isbell - Foxes in the Snow

So here's the thing. Jason Isbell tickets went on sale for the 2025 tour the other day. Love the band so I thought I'd pick up a couple of tickets. Same venue our symphony plays in.

STICKER SHOCK. $430.00 for a decent seat. No.

So I see the band is in #Kelowna on this tour. One third the ticket price. Floor seat Centre Eighth row. For the same amount as seeing the band in #Vancouver including accommodation and transport. And a weekend away.

Sometimes you just have to.
