Why Did You Book To See .....

I recently had a very bizarre conversation with my cousin regarding her choice of concert ticket.  Let me explain, my cousin will be 50 this year (to my 52).  She is one of the world's biggest Take That fans and buys music by the track.  When I asked her why she didn't buy the complete album (including Greatest Hits compilations) her response was "Because I don't like all of the tracks".  I really had no response to that one.

We had exchanged pleasantries and Happy New Years and got round to the subject of what we had coming up in 2016.  I mentioned that we had a number of concert tickets booked, including Elton John.  She told me that she had seen him - I confess to being impressed by this, as her normal choice of music wouldn't infer that she would like Elton John.  When I asked how the concert had been she replied "he was terrible - I didn't enjoy it at all".  At this point I asked her if the sound hadn't been good, the seats were poor, etc.  Her reply dumbfounded me "You know I like Disney?"  "Yeeees" I responded.  "Well I love the Lion King".  Bless her, the poor deluded soul thought that he would do the entire Lion King soundtrack.  I confess at this point I made an excuse to hang up the phone before I offended her by laughing my head off.

I just wondered if other people have booked tickets expecting to see one thing and something completely different had happened - in either a good or bad way.
