Ah, but you got Howard in London. Surely that's worth the loss of fancy tickets. ;-)
This is my first concert mug, and it's a beauty. (I usually go the t-shirt route, but I find I'm not wearing them as much these days, and they're also not making them in sizes/styles that fit me right. I'm too wee, in the wrong ways.)
I imagine it's like any community, where you get to know the players. (I'm like that with Toronto film events, where I've got to know a number of people who turn up at the same events I do.) The Frankfurt venue forbade camping overnight, or I'm sure some of them would have done it.
I wouldn't normally have waited so long for a venue like that--it was a tiny place, and there were multiple places I would have been fine with seeing the concert from--but since it was quite possibly my one and only shot at seeing Mark solo, I figured I'd go for the whole fannish experience.
