Okay, I've been planning to go to an OK GO concert since, literally, October. They're playing in New Haven (for those who don't know, 10 minutes from my house) on Tuesday night. I don't need to order tickets in advance because it's at Toad's Place, the greatest place in the world. Tickets are like $15 and they never sell out and seating/standing is on first-come first-serve usually. They don't get a lot of bands that I like (and often when it's someone I'd like to see it's 21+ since Toad's is a bar as well), but I happen to love ok go and when I saw them on the schedule way back in 2008 I was sooo excited.
I just found out I have play practice until 10:00 on Tuesday. I DON'T EVEN WANT TO GO, AND NOW I'M MISSING MY CONCERT TO DO THIS. I'm super duper angry. ;-;
ITT: situations where events conflicted badly and you didn't get what you wanted.
Lie and say that you can't make it because you have to go somewhere that day. If they inquire further, just make some BS up.
It's that easy. akudood;
fake sick, easy
I've never even heard of a good band playing near me :'(

I can't. I'm the stage manager. Taht would be so ridiculously irresponsible even if I were to pretend I were sick or something. This close to the show (first dress rehearsal is on Thursday), we come in even if we're on our deathbeds.
Contrary what some people like Det seem to believe, I am honestly mroe important than any member of the cast. So, not happening. It would have been fine if the practice was 3-7 like it originally was, but they changed it last week and it didn't click until today that that was my concert night. saddood;
What kind of practice is it

I'd still lie and skip it no matter how much respect I'd lose.
Just giving you my advice. baddood;

It's not respect, it's responsibility.
My sense of duty is very strong. saddood; (Pirates of Penzance reference that nobody will get)

This is debatable, and I like them so shut the fuck up and get the hell out unless you want to discuss the real topic at hand.

Parents just don't understand.

hi saddood;
It's not an issue of parents. baddood; I really think nobody listens to me. ;-;
I'm the stage managare. The stage manager is very very very very very important to the show. I come in third next to the two directors. If it weren't for my sense of duty (once again a pirates reference that nobody will get), I'd be free to go. But I made a commitment to the play and skipping out for a concert now would be so ridiculously irresponsible.
