The Flying Dutchman

While I often purchase tickets on Goldstar for events, I cannot stress how important it is to do some research before purchasing there. For certain events, it is often cheaper to find tickets through the venue or a group who operates out of the venue. I wrote about this before.

The following applies if you are under 35-

The Flying Dutchman is playing at the Kennedy Center. If you join Generation O you can purchase tickets for $25 for rear orchestra, $35 for side orchestra or $50 for prime orchestra for March 20th or 25th. Now, if you go to Goldstar Events, you can only purchase ticket for the same nights (plus the 15th) for Premium Orchestra- $85.00, Prime Orchestra- $70.00, Orchestra- $49.00, First Tier- $49.00, Second Tier- $34.00. PLUS a service fee of between $6.50-$10.00. Ouch.

This is a blog written by a couple of DCers, who like to drink a little, learn a little, live a lot and all without going broke. Gone Out DC contains information about events/news/happy hours that we believe are most worthy of your time in the Washington (and surrounding) area. Our friends have told us things like "wow, you know things" so we thought we would share the news with the world. We believe that having an active social life in DC doesn't necessarily mean tapping into a savings account, increasing your credit card debt, or sacrificing that potential student loan interest payment for an opera ticket, nature walk, or drink (at VERY least, you know you've thought about it).

Besides, why research when we are going to do it for you anyway?
