The shouts of, “LUDA, LUDA, LUDA!” resounded around the halls of Barton Hall on February 28, 2009. Too bad for the “I’m-too-cool-to-pay-for-a-ticket-this-early” fans, who attempted to pay over $50.00 for a ticket over Facebook, hours before the show (cue the Fbook status of: “If anyone has extra Luda tix, message me plz!!!”).
