Around the time that I started dating my last girlfriend, Radiohead was playing a benefit show for Haiti in Los Angeles, across the country from us. Tickets went to the highest bidders and there weren't many. There was no way to tell how high the bids were, so you just had to guess. I'm sure a part of me wanted to show out for the girl, but I genuinely wanted to do what I could to help the situation in Haiti. Plus Radiohead. I bought two tickets for $550 a piece, plus airfare, hotel, and incidentals, but we had incredible seats at an intimate show. I'd pay for that again if I could.
