Usually I try not to buy tickets from that particular online vendor¹, but this time I had to. And when my Autechre tickets arrived in the post today, I was a bit suprised, because when I took them out of the envelope all I could see was a writing in block capitals:

Aha, I thought, what a progressive and cool ticket shop they are, now they are making surrealist references. Well, turns out they simply print the receipt on the same paper as the ticket, and want to make it clear that this particular card isn’t a ticket - the other two attached cards are. Still, I wonder if anyone else noticed.

1. See Tickets (no link since I don’t want to needlessly increase their page rank). They are shameless spammers, sending advertisements for shows I have absolutely no interest in several times a week and providing no obvious (or working) opt-out link. The spam gets handled by my filters, of course, but what’s worse is whenever I am forced to buy tickets from them, I end up having to fish for the receipt in my spam folder. beh.
