Title: What Did You Just Buy Tickets To?
Post by: Relaxer on March 11, 2013, 10:54:47 am
I like the 'This Week Roll Call' thread but sometimes by then, it's too late to be influenced or motivated because a show is sold out or I've got conflicting plans.

So what have you just bought tickets to?

Last night I bought tix to see Peter Murphy do Bauhaus at the U St Music Hall. Never saw Bauhaus and the idea of seeing the dude at USMH sounds pretty good, though obviously I wish it were the full band.

i'm on the edge of busting out of a major show-going hiatus.  in the past 3-4 months i think i've been to 2 shows, which is low for me.  in the past few weeks i've acquired tickets to Booka Shade, Escort, HTDA, !!!, Postal Service and B&S.  i have a few other shows high on my radar, such as Pig Destroyer, The Feelies, Bonobo, Chili Cookoff (Soundgarden, SSPU), Hot Chip, Cloud Cult, BMRC, Sweetlife Festival (Phoenix, YYY)... i'm sure i'm forgetting some.  lots to choose from.

They allow you to switch tickets to other games.  And any additional tickets you buy are at season ticket price.  Good deal if you want to see yankees or red sox.  And for 8 bucks a game you can park in lot between the stadiums.  It also allowed me to get opening day tickets.  So I think it is a pretty good deal.  Of course my usual strategy of buying the cheapest tickets in the stadium and moving down to the lower boxes is probably a better deal.

I saw the Rye Coalition play an opening set for someone or other at the BC about 6 or 7 years ago and they absolutely tore the place apart. It was amazing. I was bummed to see they'd broken up or were on hiatus or whatever. Hope this means they might get the show back on the road.

I've seen Rye Coalition 5 times-- with Trans Am (Black Cat 12/2001), with the Early Humans (Black Cat Backstage 02/2002), with Macitajs on Acid and Golden (Black Cat 08/2002), and with the Kinison (Black Cat 09/2004), plus part of a big festival with Shellac et al. in NJ in 2000.  That Backstage show was by far the best-- awesome night, and I've got a couple of great photos from that show (like this one (http://autumnshades.com/photos/samples/rye_32.jpg)).  Can't believe it's been 9 years since I last saw them-- they've been on a weird hiatus for a while; many of their members (except Ralph Cuseglio and Dave Leto the drummer) are now in the Black Hollies (whom I've never seen).  I think they do sort of one-off shows here and there-- this one is a benefit for Norton Records (disclaimer: my brother put this show together).

I didn't hear the Neutral Milk Hotel albums until 2 years ago so for me they are pretty new to me.  I am not dissing anyone.  Just the prices.  I would rather pay 600 dollars to see a band in a small church than paying 30 bucks to see a band in MCI center.  Actually have never seen a band at MCI center.  I did see a couple of bands at Capital Center back in the 90's and it was not enjoyable.

Yeah... pretty excited. The strange thing with Pearl Jam is that I don't think I've listened to a full album of theirs since Vitology, however any song of theirs I hear I usually enjoy... and they put on an amazing live show. I don't think I've seen them since 05' or 06'.

I might have an extra pair of tickets if you want them walky.

I can't wrap my head around all this Pizza Underground excitement. 

The concept in and of itself is barely even amusing.

And the execution is far, far worse.

This is like paying to watch me and my roomates bang on tables and guitars in the living room when we were 19 years old.

The vocals are definitely an improvement over the original songs.   "Standing in the corner, Pizza in my hand"  :Waiting for delivery man".  I am thinking you are lacking a sense of humour.

I fail to understand what's embarrassing about a collective of five musician-poets who transcend genres even as they re-invent them. Haters going to hate. I think the miniscule Pizza Underground backlash is people showing how immature they are because they can't get past what one person in the group happened to do when he was 9 years old.

Obv nobody going to this to see good music or creativity.  I'm guessing it's about humor?  It's just not funny at all.  Now people playing VU covers about pizza with skill and precision?   That might be just a little funny, akin to bands like Lez Zeppelin, Miss-fits, etc. 

I suppose it's mostly about McCauley Caulkin.  Which I suppose i can understand at least a little bit.  Like going to see Kevin Bacon's band or something.

I listened to their demos and they were better than the original songs and they were funny. I mean who can't sing better than Lou Reed.   I won't be attending but I don't see why you are so negative about them.    It sounds like it is fun.  I don't care that Culkin is in the band.

Let me get this straight you would rather see a show at MPP than Sixth and I?  Are  you anti-semetic?
Title: Re: What Did You Just Buy Tickets To?
Post by: Hexenjagd on February 08, 2014, 02:05:34 pm
I would rather see a show at: Rock and Roll Hotel, Black Cat (main or backstage), 930, La Casa, Club K, the Ottobar, Metro Gallery, the Crown, Sonar if it still was around, MPP, Charm City Art Space, or Velvet (not a comprehensive list, just some examples).

I am pretty sure I have posted my thoughts on seeing rock shows there.  I don't like it.  I saw the Polyphonic Spree there (one of my favorite bands) and almost hated it.  Its fine for spoken word, book tour stuff, but I would much rather see bands in a different setting. 

And no, I am not anti-Semitic, or anti anything.

Rachel at Sixth and I was AMAZING.  I don't hate the place itself, I just hate it for a concert, and would rather be elsewhere.

Uh oh, having an opinion on what is too much for someone to want to pay for a show gets you jumped on around here.

Per Rollcall thread in reference to $25 Mudhoney tickets.  I am surprised nobody jumped on your ass on how "$38 is perfectly reasonable; they NEED to eat after all; and thats like 20 dudes between all of those bands; you cant have an opinion"

::)


all I'm saying is the show is obviously not "expensive"; more like you are "cheap"

don't take it as an insult just think about it...

there's what? 4 or 5 guys in the band? they tour every few years? they certainly don't make much money selling records given how everyone is into streaming, right? they're coming from clear across the country.. how much do you expect grown men to tour for? $25 is really reasonable... now if you can't swing it or don't want to that is your prerogative of course.... but "expensive"??? come on now!
So, according to hutch and others logic (i didnt copy the SEVERAL pages), you are being cheap, SO COME ON NOW.

(I think $38 is too much as well, its just funny what fights people pick and with who around here.  I guess some of us are second class citizens in the eyes of other board members and should not have opinions)

Post by: grateful on March 10, 2014, 05:23:47 pm
I think as a band, you have to have a good idea your market value, then design a tour whose total expenses are slightly below that.  If somebody balks at your price, that's an indication that you overestimated your worth. That or you weren't after that one bastard's money anyways.

what about hutch's (or however's) right to their opinion, that the price isn't unreasonable?  looks like you want to take away their right to disagree with you.  pot, kettle?

you see some sort of conspiracy about "what fights people pick and with who" - i see one-off arguments that folks don't want, or are too lazy, to retread every time it comes up.  it's not all about you, hex.

Magrudergrind is pretty cool grindcore. I saw them at Macrock once and some crowdsurfer punched the singer in the face causing his nose to bleed....Did not stop the show haha. Strong Intention is ok but probably the worst band on the bill. Ilsa is a powerhouse of Satanic metal for sure! The ticket was 45 bucks with fees but it is just a one-off gig for all the bands and not a tour. It should be a rad show, and probably worth the price tag once all is said and done.

I moved from Raleigh to Takoma Park in 1997. Pulling my 1989 Lebaron with a UHaul truck, by myself. Pretty sure that took 5 hours and ?$ gas bucks. Really depends on what kind of traffic you hit.

actualy there is an artist presale going on since 10  but you got to be a member of his fanclub (Club Luck) and i don't imagine anyone wants to join cause you have to pay $29.99 for the annual membership which lets you buy tickets early

but i'm not futzing around with willie....i bet tickets will be easy to come by on the onsale and also 930 i expect will have its own presale...i just didn't want to take any chance

willie club shows are very rare..this is the only one on this tour..

I did not pay anything extra.  What is the fast lane?  I have been to a few shows at the Fillmore, and have not had any issues getting in the venue in a timely fashion.

They're spectacular live. The 930 show in... 2003?... with stellastarr* opening is a top 10 all-timer for me.

I have a feeling this will be up there for me as well.  The set lists as of late have been excellent.  They do a great job curating content from the last few albums, along with some older tunes.  I was supposed to see them in 2009, but part of their tour was cancelled.  I do not plan on waiting another five years...

They (Placebo) came in summer 03 with Ambulance Ltd, and again in December with stellastarr*. I know the December show was 2 bands only, I'd wager a significant amount of money on that. I have never seen Idlewild but would've loved to so I'm certain that was a different tour.

I know Stellastarr* headed out spring 04 with Ambulance Ltd and Killers. I'm pissed if I missed an Idlewild/Stellastarr* tour at some point.

I saw that Stellastarr/Ambulance/Killers show at the Black Cat. It was incredible, I couldn't believe how good Stellastarr was.

And it appears you are correct:

Placebo 12.12.03   9:30 Club, Washington DC   USA   w/ Stellastarr

Now I wish I could remember what show it was where Idlewild opened at the club. I remember getting there halfway through their set and being so bummed that I'd missed it.

I was actually pretty impressed with the Killers, though I was inclined to like them because I was a huge NME fanboy and had a feeling they would be good. But regardless of my mental hype, I thought they were very polished and "fully formed" in that the songs were catchy, they sounded great, and they looked good up there. I never really listened to them apart from when their songs came on the radio, and I can still hum some of the tunes they played that night.

Courtney Barnett
So obviously didn't just buy these, but now looking at the night wonder if I should try to trade these for the Sunday night show

Doors 7 PM
2 opening acts

then at 11 there is a Mixtape Pride Party 
Doors: 11:00 PM

here we go with the Gays ruining everything! (couldn't find the sarcasm font)


So does that mean the club has to be empty by 10:30...so the show will be over by 10?

I'm hoping the opening acts only play 30 min sets that start at 7:30

I know she doesn't have a huge catalog of songs and probably only does a 90 min set max
but I'm going to be annoyed if she goes on at 9pm and HAS to be off at 10
Title: Re: What Did You Just Buy Tickets To?
Post by: killsaly on May 28, 2015, 12:43:01 pm
Courtney Barnett will probably play for an hour (one album, three EPs deep into her career) though maybe she does 75 minutes. 

Chastity Belt will probably play for 30 minutes (I hope they do 45 at their headlining show at Metro Gallery that week, but I doubt they would play that long for an opening set).   

Darren Hanlon will probably play for 30 minutes (just a guess, I have never heard of this artist).

Courtney Barnett is in the midst of her sold-out, three-night run at Bowery Ballroom with tour mates Chastity Belt and fellow Aussie Darren Hanlon. At the first (5/19), she mixed songs from her terrific new album with older favorites like "Avant Gardener" and "History Eraser" while making time for two early '90s covers -- The Breeders' "Cannonball" and The Lemonheads' "Being Around." Pictures and setlist from Tuesday's show, plus videos, are in this post (http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2015/05/courtney_barnet_20.html).

Bombay, as a true dead-head, how do you feel about this Dead and Co. shenanigan? You're obviously on board, but how the heck is that going to hold up after what most would say pretty incredible Fare The Well shows.

I'm somewhat intrigued but Bobby is a mess and can hardly carry a tune and John Mayer, while a great blues guitarist, how is he going to fill the shoes of Jerry? I kind of predict a train wreck.
Title: Re: What Did You Just Buy Tickets To?
Post by: Bombay Chutney on August 26, 2015, 05:09:30 pm
I don't think it's going to come anywhere close to the FTW shows.  However, it seems like Bob has gotten his sh*t together over the last year.  Hopefully, that will hold up.  I don't know much about Mayer other than (as you said) he's supposedly a really good blues guitarist.   I predict he holds his own, but I'm not really expecting anything magical to come out of this.  I think anyone expecting Chicago Part 2 is going to be disappointed.   I just expect it to be a fun time with some good music.  The excitement is back in Deadheadland.  That goes a long way in making a good time out of this.

Chicago was over-the-top fantastic.  From here on out, everything else is just a bonus.

Confession: I've seen John Mayer.

But but but... He just doesn't fit this mold. The guy isn't an improvisational player, hell, he just started listening to the dead in the past couple of years. I just don't know how he's going to fill any sort of lead guitar role.

Anyway, I hope to snag a ticket for about $10 bucks come show time.

You don't even have to worry about the museum for parking; on street parking is free all over Richmond after 6pm, and it's pretty easy to find, especially around the Broadberry. That's cool that the museum offers it too, didn't know that.

Tickets for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Which is probably a bummer for any Washington fans. In the past 9 years, I have attended 16 professional sports games across football, basketball, baseball, soccer and hockey. Every single one of them has been a loss for the Washington team.

Could this be the weekend that the streak breaks? Probably not!!!!!

Have to make a shout out to Challenged for his recommendation of Upriise.com

feel free to click my referal link to get $10 off your first purchase at upriise

http://r.sloyalty.com/r/uJi5NhP97zIl (http://r.sloyalty.com/r/uJi5NhP97zIl)

No bull shit there
Had I not already been offered by beato a Pit ticket to the Cure, I was also able to get the pit tickets a few days after they sold out too

So this site is the real deal on not paying extra if a show get's sold out

Only thing I'd add is in the lottery they give preference to paying members, so if you just do it free membership, you might not be soo lucky

the curse of the speller strikes again..
ya know, in my mind it was always Beato, not Betao
like to do with music, not Tao of Be

but honestly, I've come to my own peace on this topic as whole.

Where I could care less that some people seem to think that it's SO important to point these gross infractions out.
  When it's very obvious they know EXACTLY what I was talking about.
 

But, they feel some sort of superiority and pride, so much so, that they feel compelled to inform me of my offensive crimes against humanity and decency...and that act of identification and shaming...  somehow makes them feel better as a person and that they are making the world a better place.  And somehow this contribution to society is getting them one step closer to their own personal nirvana.

So, you are welcome.
And you can also rest assured that I will continue to give you the opportunity to reach that enlightenment that you all are so clearly searching long and hard for.

and this...is my small and insignificant contribution to society as a whole

The most I've ever paid for a concert ticket over the face value... It was a little over double the original cost of face + fees, but after the Lockn + Bonnaroo announcements, I don't think they'll be playing locally anytime soon. I also have some changes coming up in the near future that will not allow me to attend many shows post July.

Bob, I literally stopped being friends with a couple because they called me up and wanted to go to dinner, we agreed to meet up at one of the nicest, trendiest places in town, and they showed up with their two children, both under age 4. The oldest proceeded to run around and scream he wanted fucking mac and cheese and a hot dog the entire time (at a James Beard semifinalist's neo-american foodie restaurant). They had absolutely no shame in this. I pretended I had to go to the bathroom right as they left so I could find the waitress after they were out of sight, hand her an extra $60, and say "I am so sorry, I didn't know. I just didn't know." She nodded.

Since when does having kids prevent someone from dining out?
It doesn't, but typically people don't traffic swanky restaurants with their kids in tow
and Yada tends to talk about places that I would imagine wouldn't be kid friendly

Obviously he has a good babysitter or mother-in-law who lives close by

oh....Mazel Tov!
We have to raise the next generation of Ween fans

We luckily scored with an amazing nanny (not the hot kind Relaxer) and we don't take our daughter to "swanky" places... only recently have we dipped our toes back into taking her out to non swanky meals which tend to be a crap shoot.

re: ween, she's a big fan already!

also... this coming from the guy who owned property in SF!!! LOL!

"Its fine as long as they're well behaved" dominates with 77%. Virtually no kids under 8 are going to remain well behaved. If they do, OK, your kid is the exception to the rule. Good on you, parent.

But rest assured parents idea of whether their kid is acting in an appropriate manner is vastly different than people around them's opinion.

I have no problem with a teenager being at a fancy restaurant.

I think it really depends on the kid(s). We started taking our daughter to restaurants from the very beginning, and trained her well. She has always been very well behaved. It helps that she has no siblings.

I've seen other kids who were well behaved as wel, and others who were total assholes.

That said, it's a rare, special, occasion when we go to a "fancy" restaurant. Part of the special is getting a sitter and having an actual date night.

I have very strong opinions about children.

TGI Fridays - OK, children expected
Acadiana - well maybe not "fancy" but I would not expect children there and would be thoroughly annoyed if someone brought an unruly child to dinner here.

Just about every parent thinks their kid(s) are the exception.

"No no, he's really good, it will not be a problem."

30 minutes later, the sounds of crying and sobbing echo throughout the restaurant, and not all of them are coming from me.

I'm glad you know what I'm talking about! I must confess, I was never old enough to go to the original Fever. I loathe most of the modern rave culture that those younger than me go for (seriously, fuck dubstep and calling any genre EDM is pretty lame), so I figured this would be an awesome party to go dance my ass off. Not to mention, see some very fantastic djs. I just hope that all of my years of being obsessed with electronic stuff (not to mention my obsession with all things Manchester) has payed off and I'll recognize what is played. I'm also hoping for some acid house classics. I think Feelgood and Onionz will totally do that. Believe me, I wish I could time travel to the warehouse parties of the late 80's/early 90's. Same with wishing I could go to the Paradise Garage and the Hacienda.

Of course!  Scott Henry and Charles Feelgood have been two of my favorites since the late 90s/early 2000s.  I went to a lot of big raves in New Orleans in 1999 and 2000, and saw both of them at different events.  I ended up moving to the DC area in 2002 and started attending Buzz and Fever parties soon after.  I only went to Paradox once though.  Anyway, sounds fun!

they say something about a 20 pound voucher gift for ticketmaster but i am not counting on getting it or it working in the US


the issue at stands right now is all about iggy pop and the new album and I guess josh homme curated the free cd...i may go back and pick it up...

this will be my first subscription in a while. .i had a free subscription to rolling stone for a couple of years..

of course electronic media has its uses and advantages too.. glad my kids will not have to haul a backpack full of heavy textbooks around, etc..

I think the service charge would have been 9 bucks each online vs a dollar each at the window.

gotta be a business model in there...especialy if you live close to the club

say you could charge $5 per ticket and you would make money and the buyer would save money
not sure, but would that be a reversescalp?

how was Tobacco?

He played several new tracks from some future release and they sounded good. There were lots of Ultima II Massage songs mixed in but not a whole lot from Maniac Meat and perhaps nothing from Fucked Up Friends. The set flowed very well and the crowd ate it up. The dancing turned into moshing a few times. They had a gong which had projections showing on it and occasionally it would get banged to which the crowd would roar. They encored with BMSR's classic "Sun Lips" for some reason. U Hall only let him have an hour to make way for whatever DJ set would come after. Same as last time I saw him there. It was a fun, albeit short, time. I recommend seeing Tobacco or BMSR live to anyone.

Oops, I totally forgot to flash my FWB card at the 9:30 box office. Does that thing work at U Hall too?

I have lived in the DC area since 2002, and while I DO go to Philly (at least 5 times a year), I have never been to NYC, nor do I ever plan on it (I drove through part of it to get to Connecticut once, but I do not think that counts)...

I agree... Ritual has it's moments (three days obviously) but as an entire album Nothing's Shocking is far superior. I'm still annoyed though that in all these years they've never done a studio recording of Whores

NOthings Shocking is the bomb... so good...

they are both real good though... Ritual has grown on me and I now consider it a classic too but for the longest time I didn't.. interestingly enough Ritual gets better ratings than Nothings Shocking on Rate Your Music.. I found that... shocking.

I just love a good ol Nothings Shocking circle jerk. It's in my all-time top 3 albums, most likely coming in at #2 I'd have to say. It combines my artsy-fartsy side, my kinky loverman side, and my 80s squiggly guitar metal side, all in one neat RAWKin package.

another reason why this thread is useful is that it reminds me to buy tickets to a show, lets me know they're on sale, how tough it was to get a ticket, etc.  consider it a "Just Went On Sale" thread.

Just saw that Everything Everything is playing USMH on Aug 8 and I couldn't stampede fast enough to get tickets for this. Very excited about this.

Also doing my best to score two tix to the Cure because I just decided that I need to see this thing.

sorry, this is an almost buying a ticket for, post.  I cannot believe that just yesterday I was pulling pit and various 100 / 200 / 300 seats for the dead and company.  Not sure if I want to go . . . just to see how the lot works on one of these shows now, is worth it, though.

I would think a last minute, pre warm up of, "surprise, Julian at the . . ." would be in order to send him to the parking lot of the show at Nissan, not even needing to be going to the show.  A sound check of sorts, to the actual real next, Julian event . . . where he interviews people, gets great tape and see what foolishness he can get into.  Nice.

Dude physically drove out there and camped out for 3 hours to avoid fees. Wasted 4 hours of his life to save -- what? -- $20. Perfectly highlights the supreme rightness of my argument that anyone who complains about ticketing fees is a spectacular idiot.

so how much are pit tickets??


Springsteen seems to have gone like everybody else.. he used to keep prices low but no longer...

I liked seeing Bruce last time.. but its just not my thing

Probably the most memorable part of show was that I ended up sitting next to David Corn on the metro ride home and talking a bit about the election.. this was like 2-3 days before Corn broke the video of Romney talking about the 47% freeloaders/victims at a fundraiser...  I am guessing he did not know about the video at the time...I can't recall anything specific we talked about.. I think that video kind of finished Romney off....

That was the most memorable part of the evening for me...although Springsteen's performance was an exercise in giving 110% like none I have ever seen...

I heard him playing in the distance at a Bonnaroo... I had no desire to go check him out.  I do not know who I picked instead, but I am sure it was the right decision. 

One of the absolute worst musical moments that I ever experienced was earlier in that fest - Bruce joining Phish on one of the two nights and they played together for a half hour; a half hour of Bruce stumbling all over Trey, and clashing guitar solos.  It was bad.  Phish were great the rest of that set and their other set, I should add. 

I would not go see him for free and some people shell out 100s of bucks...

I cant think of a single Bruce song that I have ever heard and liked.

this is a classic Bruce song I think you would like:


In a church by her face
he talks about the people going under

Only child know

A man decides after seventy years
That what he goes there for, is to unlock the door
While those around him criticize and sleep
And through a fractal on a breaking wall
I see you my friend, and touch your face again
Miracles will happen as we trip

But we're never gonna survive, unless
We get a little crazy
No we're never gonna survive, unless
We are a little crazy

Crazy are the people walking through my head
One of them's got a gun, to shoot the other one
And yet together they were friends at school
Ohh, get it, get it, get it, get it no no

meaning    byLianboy
The right is: Amanda decides to along after seventeen years... See All
If all were there when we first took the pill
Then maybe, then maybe, then maybe, then maybe
Miracles will happen as we speak

But we're never gonna survive unless
We get a little crazy
No we're never gonna survive unless
We are a little crazy
No no, never survive, unless we get a little bit

Oh, a little bit
Oh, a little bit

A man decides to go along after seventy years
Oh darlin'
In a sky full of people, only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy
In a world full of people, only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy, crazy
In a heaven of people there's only some want to fly
Ain't that crazy
Oh babe, oh darlin'
In a world full of people there's only some want to fly
Isn't that crazy, isn't that crazy, isn't that crazy, isn't that crazy

But were never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy
No were never gonna to survive unless we are a little
But were never gonna survive unless, we get a little crazy
No were never gonna to survive unless, we are a little, crazy
No no, never survive unless, we get a little bit

And then you see things
The size of which you've never known before

They'll break it

Someday, only child know

Them things
The size of which you've never known before

Someday, someway, someway, someway, someday, someday

Title: Re: What Did You Just Buy Tickets To?
Post by: hutch on August 29, 2016, 04:02:55 pm
Definitely not trying to bother you dude...

Here is another great Bruce song... seriously..


Tweeter and the Monkey Man were hardup for cash
They stayed up all night selling cocaine and hash
To an undercover cop who had a sister named Jan
For reasons unexplained she loved the Monkey Man

Tweeter was a boy scout course he went to Vietnam
And found out the hard way, nobody gives a damn
They knew that they found freedom just across the Jersey line
So they hopped into a stolen car, took Highway 99

And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell

The undercover cop never liked the Monkey Man
Even back in childhood he wanted to see him in the can
Jan got married at fourteen to a racketeer named Bill
She made secret calls to the Monkey Man from a mansion on the hill

It was out on Thunder Road, Tweeter at the wheel
They crashed into paradise, they could hear them tires squeal
The undercover cop pulled up and said "Everyone of you is a liar
If you don't surrender now, it's gonna go down to the wire"

And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell

An ambulance rolled up, a State-Trooper close behind
Tweeter took his gun away and messed up his mind
The undercover cop was left tied up to a tree
Near the souvenir stand, by the old abandoned factory

Next day the undercover cop was hot in pursuit
He was taking the whole thing personal, he didn't care about the loot
Jan had told him many times, "It was you to me who taught
In Jersey anything's legal, as long as you don't get caught"

And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell

Some place by Rahwey Prison they ran out of gas
The undercover cop had cornered them, said
"Boy, you didn't think this could last?"
Jan jumped out of bed, said, "There's someplace I gotta go"
She took the gun out of the drawer, said, "It's best that you don't know"

The undercover cop was found face down in a field
The Monkey Man was on the river bridge using Tweeter as a shield
Jan said to the Monkey Man, "I'm not fooled by Tweeter's curl
I knew him long before he ever became a Jersey Girl"

And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell

Now the town of Jersey City is quieting down again
I'm sitting in a gambling club called the Lion's Den
The TV set was blown up, every bit of it was gone
Ever since the nightly news showed that the Monkey Man was on

I guess I'll go to Florida to get myself some sun
There ain't no more opportunity here, everything's been done
Sometimes I think of Tweeter, sometimes I think of Jan
Sometimes I don't think about nothing but the Monkey Man

And the walls came down
All the way to hell
Never saw them when they're standing
Never saw them when they fell

It took me a good long while to get into Bruce.  My best friend in College is from Jersey and was absolutely obsessed.  Nebraska is what did it for me, and from there got into some of the other stuff.  I don't like it all. I'll always like the stripped down stuff the best. 
 
The once I saw him I was bored at times, but it was arena rock show and I was pretty far back.  Think it might be different from the Pitt. I clearly don't love him enough to find out.

Bruce is trash. 

I first saw the Brooce on the tunnel of love tour in the 80s (when I was in my mid 20s) and was not really impressed. I next saw him again in the mid 2000s (early 40s). I really enjoyed the shows, great songs that I grew up with, very cathartic shows, talented musicians, goodtimes. Now at 50, I will have seen him 3 times this year. Excessive, yes. Probably should have skipped the Verizon Center show, as I had shitty seats and went solo-ish.

I think that he is not "trash," just as Cemetery Piss aren't trash, and that Wilco is/are not "boring," just as Seal isn't boring; They are all artists performing their Art - and one word dismissive pejorative reviews are not to be taken seriously, and are not taken seriously. These types of categorical artist dismissals seem to be stated on this forum to pick fights; and I doubt that the artists that you prefer would join you in your opinions or that they would want to pick those fights.

That being said, Billy Joel is motherfucking garbage. Can we all at least agree on that?

I know that you did, Bonarroo, Phish, not liking his songs, but it was all superficial; and undermined by equating him/his music with refuse; and yes: until you have stood for 3 hours in the unrelenting rain in western Massachusetts with Bagley to see the WilcoFest, you just have no idea what you are talking about there.

No takers on Billy Joel. Fucking "All for Leyna," the absolute worst.

Post by: hutch on August 29, 2016, 10:17:02 pm
man.. if songs like Born to Run or Thunder Road or Rosalita do nothing for you you need your pulse checked...For me I like Springsteen a lot up to about 1982 but I think he fell of a cliff after that.....I love his first album but it is admittedly a very good Dylan forgery....

Springsteen in DC used to play at the old Childe Harold when he first started coming down.. its hard for me to imagine that having been at the place (RIP).. .one of my dream shows if I had a time travel machine would have been the College Park show in the mid 70s.. probably 73 or 74.. the date is on the net but I can't be bothered.. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band opened up for I think Jerry Lee Lewis and Chuck Berry closed with Bruce and the E Street Band backing him.. there is a very funny video of Bruce talking about the experience included in the movie Hail Hail Rock and Roll (and I'm sure on youtube).... unfortunately no audio exists


Curiously enough his first band- Steel Mill- had a HUGE following in Richmond, VA but didn't make it anywhere else....Springsteen decided to break it up .. I have a Steel Mill bootleg cd somewhere around here but am scared to listen to it..

John Hammond- pardon me a little bit more credibility than Killsally  (with all due respect of course)- the greatest A&R man in the history of music then signed him to Columbia and the rest is history.. John Hammond for those unaware is the same guy who first signed Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Ray Vaughan and countless others...

With this option, you take the email of your donation with you when you want to go and bypass the line. You don't need a timed ticket. (at least it doesn't say that on the email).

Yes...

Damn, Tool sold out immediately. Kinda surprised.

2009 was the last time they were in the DMV area, so a lot of pent up demand for sure. I was set up to get tickets at 10am and they were gone. Kept refreshing as I heard people lucked out and snagged a pair around 10:45am.

Anyone know why they would prefer a place like the Patriot Center? (Played there in 2009, too). Old venue and only seats like 10K. I feel like Verizon Center would be a much better choice. There's nothing scheduled that day. With the price and fees they're charging, Verizon Center would be about the same.

I went last Thursday. It was a little rainy that morning. Got in line at 7:30am and got a ticket for 10:30am at 10:00am. Line gets long FAST. You don't know what time you'll get, and they don't know what they will have tickets for until the line opens at 10. It's all very well organized. There are chairs if you get there early enough, a coffee truck, and restrooms outside.

I've been twice. Paid for the Kusama Circle and last Thursday. It's worth it.

When you get into the exhibit, go to both of the light ones first. Those lines get long very quickly. I would recommend going through each room twice, once for experience and once if you want a picture. Easier to do in the morning than the afternoon.

Her paintings are also incredible. I liked them as much as the rooms.

Yes. To be fair, for some reason I thought they handed out tickets at 8:30am. BUT, glad I got there at 7;30 as by 9:00 the line was really long. I had a friend the week before who had gotten into the line at 8 and got tickets for 1:30 at 11am. And I knew that the later time you went in, the longer you wait for the rooms. So, just wanted to wait on the front end of things.

You can get tickets for whatever time you want, as long as that entry time is available. Be aware that you'll wait to get into the exhibit and then each of the rooms. Honestly I would recommend trying to get in as close to opening as possible.

I took a look at the Livenation summer kick off discount thing.

I picked up Primus w/ Clutch in Philly at the Festival Pier.

Also got Deep Purple w/ Alice Cooper & Edgar Winter at JLL.

20 bucks flat for each. The Primus gig is GA I think too. All these old rockers are going the way of the dodo and I was raised on Deep Purple so I better seem them before another one bites the dust. I really liked Jon Lord....I would love if Richie Blackmore was still in the band but whatcha gonna do.

my partner is so funny.  the other day, he comes fuming up to me, pointing at his ipad.  "did you see the prices of these tickets?  Over $150 each for good seats for Cyndi Lauper with Rod Stewart!  It would be $1000 for us to go see Adam Lambert and Queen!"

oh . . . gay guys, and their musical tastes.

I went last Thursday. It was a little rainy that morning. Got in line at 7:30am and got a ticket for 10:30am at 10:00am.
yikes...you waited from 7:30 AM until 10AM before you even knew if you were getting a ticket!
would they give you a later time (like 3:30) if you asked

Yes. To be fair, for some reason I thought they handed out tickets at 8:30am. BUT, glad I got there at 7;30 as by 9:00 the line was really long. I had a friend the week before who had gotten into the line at 8 and got tickets for 1:30 at 11am. And I knew that the later time you went in, the longer you wait for the rooms. So, just wanted to wait on the front end of things.

You can get tickets for whatever time you want, as long as that entry time is available. Be aware that you'll wait to get into the exhibit and then each of the rooms. Honestly I would recommend trying to get in as close to opening as possible.

Unless you get in at 10:00 I don't think there is really a great way to experience the Kusama thing.  I've been twice (different sets if visitors in town), and definitely waited longer inside when I entered at 10:45 than I did at 4:45.  I actually think end of the day might be the best way to go.

I saw Tommy Keene years ago as opener at Rams Head.  He had just opened for Replacements as a solo acoustic act.  I was expecting solo acoustic at Rams Head show as well.  He showed up there full band and it was by far loudest show ever at Rams Head Annapolis...(I had stage front tix) and it surely contributed to my present day tinnitus.

Sorry I haven't been able to see him on his recent stint due to my schedule conflicts .

Isley Brothers.. really its Ronald Isley but he is the voice..at the Kennedy Center July 15th.. I do have a slight worry nagging me that its the same night I have something else going on though..uh oh..

anyways I hadn't thought of buying a ticket but I happened to get a second row center ticket and thought I'd hate myself if I passed it up..the guy is 76... over the past decade I've been listening more and more to the Isley Brothers.. i think white people in particular - my age- don't seem to have a clue about them but from Shout in 1959 then Twist and Shout all the way through the late 70s their music is pretty awesome..

I finally got two to My Bloody Valentine in Philly.  Because I had to be out of the office for work I used the  ticketmaster phone app for the first time and it was rough going.  First time I logged in I somehow ended up with 4 (two brookly vegan and two ticketmaster presale) even though I only wanted two.  I threw all four back because I couldn't figure out a way to only dtich two.  Then for 15 minutes I couldn't get another ticket.  Finally after like 15 minutes I finally got two more to appear.

Brendan Canty has been very busy this last year
I saw him on Portlandia and as a guest drummer on colbert
mesthetics has been touring a bunch
I think he was involved with something else
Just realized what that something else was...he's doing the skins for the MC50 tour

If you were to  buttchug


I typically stick to these.

so you buttchug little coco covered blueberries?

Boof is the proper term. Ask walk,y.

I, prefer . . . poof.  "Yo, homie, you care to poof some weed blueberries this evening?"

and Elvis...the last show at the wolf trap left a bad taste in my mouth when he did 45 mins of unknown songs from that undone play and we left early
Set list are looking much better this year

$122 is kinda steep tho

When did this go onsale as only 1/2 the venue is sold?

edit..
5 freaking presales starting 6/19
always find that odd when there are so many presales
sad when it doesn't sell out

bobby weir, at warner from the presale

the ole trick with buying tickets, is to keep trying even after the only thing you're pulling is shit seats.  suddenly there was, from what I assume was a credit card denied throwback, a pretty decent orch seat so I grabbed it.  they did have vip seats for like 400 or something.

I'll pay you instantly via you're preferred method and reward you with a fancy beer, medicinal items, or a pat on the back... whatever you prefer.

Thank you in advance.

If they let us get 4 tickets, I can try for 2 for you for Sunday. PM me.

I checked and checked but didn't see anything listed afterwards. I'm not 30 yet and I still was too tired to stay after after 3. I assume it was a DJ. Ty and White Fence were really good but had a short set. Tim Hecker is always my go-to since he doesn't play DC.

Was supposed to see them back at the Patriot Center a decade or so ago. Dropped off after A Weekend in the City.

Not sure I agree with your rationale, nkotb. Interpol is a top 10 favorite band for me and I was very bored both of the times I caught them. And one of the shows was during their Turn Off The Bright Lights anniversary tour! I avoided their Anthem show because of those experiences.

Well sure, I dont' mean to suffer through it if you know its bad. But it sounds like you've never seen them before, so if you like them, why not try it?  If you do want recommendations, though, Vas likes to say everything is bad.

Not everything I say is bad...but it's just my opinion that I think their live show sucks....and those were $12 - $15 shows. 

There are just certain bands that are great/better on record than the live shows.  Modest Mouse is the only other band that I can think of right now.

I'm actually a fan of Bloc Party...I've seen the Silent Alarm tour twice shortly after it came out.  I love Silent Alarm.

Not everything I say is bad...but it's just my opinion that I think their live show sucks....and those were $12 - $15 shows. 

There are just certain bands that are great/better on record than the live shows.  Modest Mouse is the only other band that I can think of right now.


Well sure, I dont' mean to suffer through it if you know its bad. But it sounds like you've never seen them before, so if you like them, why not try it?  If you do want recommendations, though, Vas likes to say everything is bad.

I may. Silent Alarm is very important to me. Wish the old lineup was touring it.

I love Janelle Monae and Of Montreal on record. But the one time i saw them, when they toured together, both were meh. Maybe i just don't like all the theatricality.

Come on dude...I mean that is on you regarding Monae

It’s like saying I went to see Bowie but didn’t like the outfits or I went to see the Ramones but didn’t appreciate all the short 2 minute songs or I went to see the Stones but didn’t like all the Jagger calisthenics

BTW Monae has the coolest fan base

Too much of the music was prerecorded. Total turn off for me.

I've seen of Montreal half a dozen times and had a blast at every single show. That was years ago though. The shtick may wear thin on me these days.

Our kid will be turning 12 on the trip, and most of the sea kayaking stuff I've seen is 13+. Like this one:

https://www.napalikayak.com/  (this is on the island of Kauai)

 So we're just kayaking on a river (with little to no current) to a hiking trail that leads to a waterfall:

https://kayakwailua.com/ (also on Kauai)

It's almost as if Nick Cave responded to you directly:
"Although I am a man – and have spent a fair amount of energy writing about that – I have actually never felt any real allegiance to my masculinity; there was nothing particularly invested in it, and even though I was more or less heterosexual, I have always felt pliant in my navigations between maleness and femaleness, even – and perhaps especially – growing up within the overtly masculine Australian culture."

Craig Finn and the UTC (full band show), at some dude's house in Roland Park in September.
Roland Park is an affluent garden suburb known for its village atmosphere. It’s dotted with fashionable restaurants serving seafood, California fusion and French cuisine, as well as gourmet food stores, upscale boutiques for children and adults, and toy shops. Grand late-Victorian homes line the leafy streets

I love Baltimore.
Baltimore has serious systemic problems that have made it, and will likely keep it, dangerous.
The violence is all around now, but is concentrated in zones into which I don't go.
It's definitely keep your head on a swivel (to a much greater degree than DC or NYC - the other cities I frequent) when one is out at night.
Fuck Trump tho. Because for him it's about dividing, diverting attention from his own evil-doing, throwing red-meat to his base, and most importantly never about helping anyone but himself.

I like Baltimore ok...certainly ten times more than Richmond


But the suffering you see people there experiencing is gut wrenching...driving through there and seeing block after block with most houses boarded and abandoned is sad..

We need a National Reconstruction Program for Baltimore and cities like it

And of course Baltimore has very nice areas


But when you drive certain areas you realize they need help


Local leaders seem kind of lame...Didn’t the Mayor resign?

The Inner Harbor didn’t change the city all that much except for tourists

That is a cry for help

i understand now - trump got his info from ben carson, who was a neurosurgeon there for decades.  checks out.

Ben Carson stands by Trump's depiction of Baltimore (https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/31/politics/ben-carson-baltimore-trump/index.html)

"This is the level of which we have sunken as a society. It's so important that we stop this, this madness. We have some threats. But it's not China. It's not Russia. It's not North Korea. It's us, and whether we can learn how to work together and realize that we're not each other's enemy and that we have a job to do here," Carson said.

So if an artist you want to see if playing from 1-2, so you pick up the 10:30am passes or the 1:30pm passes? It says passes are good starting 30 mins before the time, so the 1:30 pass would start at 1, but you'd want to have your seat before 1. Hmmm.

If it starts at 1 PM, you'd still get the morning (10:30 am) tickets.

Or just click on a specific show and it will take you to the ticket link for that show.

Thanks, I got both, just in case. Though it's first come first served and don't know that I want to show up at 10:30am when the one thing I really want to see isn't until 1! Maybe it won't be that crowded early in the day.

my kids birthday is that week and has been pestering me for a year that if PM ever comes to town I need to get tix for her
things you do for love...

I may just resell these and buy her a bike...jez
Don't give in to the whole "bike" thing; the Post Malone show will give her great face tattoo inspiration/goals.
I just couldn't rationalize paying $700 for two tickets for someone I don't really like (luckily I didn't tell my kid)
wasn't even in the front row, was row c section121 (great seats tho...but at that price!)
and made a little extra scratch selling them on stub hub
I think I'll use that to get our matching face tattoos

I drove to Siesta Key last year for my sister's wedding and then my parents and my other sister and I went on a roadtrip from there to Key West, Cape Canaveral (for a rocket launch), Savannah, Charleston, then home. The drive home from Charleston was easy and completely doable. But, maybe it just felt that way after driving that much in a two week time period.

(Sort of, compared to my usual planning standards) last minute decision to go to Miami for Spring Break 2018, and airfare prices  for three sucked royally. Also had a desire/need at the time to go to Charleston and needed to do it driving, so rolled the two trips into one.

I really hate how Spring Break for Fairfax County Schools is always attached to Easter week. Any other week in Spring, and airfare would be completely reasonable. Fucking Christians.

But if a significant portion of school systems moved their spring break week, don’t you think that new week would see flight costs rise? I think you have the tail wagging the dog.

(Sort of, compared to my usual planning standards) last minute decision to go to Miami for Spring Break 2018, and airfare prices  for three sucked royally. Also had a desire/need at the time to go to Charleston and needed to do it driving, so rolled the two trips into one.

I really hate how Spring Break for Fairfax County Schools is always attached to Easter week. Any other week in Spring, and airfare would be completely reasonable. Fucking Christians.
But if a significant portion of school systems moved their spring break week, don’t you think that new week would see flight costs rise? I think you have the tail wagging the dog.

Only if they all moved it to the same week...

It looks like Easter has varied between 3/22 and 4/25. So pick the five or six possible weeks in that time frame, and each school randomly choose a week in the time frame rather than everyone taking Easter week.

Not sure I would make that decision again but I hadn’t seen Dean in a while

This was my first show after nearly getting killed by a car and being in intensive care for three weeks...

I am generally fine with shorter sets from everyone, for I am Old.

Also, no you would not see a Wilco headlining gig (at least if you had to pay): Vas quote: "I'd be bored if I'm in Wilco."

Its my understanding from the first round of these shows two weeks ago that you have little signs to indicate if you need to go to the bathroom or get out the bubble and it’s fairly easy to get in and out. But we could be amenable to going somewhere for drinks before assuming it’s not a beer only establishment.

Ok, maybe you are right on that tax and tip thing, I'm not well versed in this kind of transaction

was just thinking with $12 beers, you only need to order 2, but you are saying they better be $12.50 or they are billing for the dif?

It does say if you cancel less than 2 days before they will charge you $25 per person, that's where I got the number

I do recall last year there was something like a $200 table minimum regardless of how many attended
But I didn't see anything like that on the site or my reservation

The misses will likely be. ALTHOUGH: it appears you don't have all the info -- this same show is also happening at the National on 9/10 as well but with Julien headlining one night and Lucy the other (9/11). And my wife isn't going to attend back to back nights, so MAYBE.

For most bands I would not but if they're swapping off who headlines, to see a "full" set by both I'd need to attend both. Plus it doesn't cost me any more to go two nights.

I think I was at that show. The one with Band of Horses. My wife bought me a single indoor ticket for $50, plus the $1 fee at the 9:30 box office for my birthday. Still the most expensive show I've ever been to.

Little known fact, BoH is one of the only shows I've ever left early because it was so bad. 930 Club, circa 2006?? Maybe 2007?

I am at 19 as of last night.

I think it will end up at around 25.
First one is July 24, and I am assuming the last one will be NYE or NYEE.
So 21 weeks, and 25 shows seems about possible.

I made my decision my the Flaming Lips vs. Dinosaur Jr. debate. (Nada Surf in Baltimore on a weeknight just isn't doable.)

I bought tickets for the second night of Wolf Alice, forgetting it was the same night at the above shows.

If that show is early enough, I suppose I could do double duty, but that's probably too much for me in one night and who knows what set times will be this far in advance.

You serious bro?

I thought it’s been like this for years! Obviously mailing a ticket requires someone printing it, taking to post office or putting it in a mail bin for pick up or whatever


Having it emailed to you basically requires no effort…I think it’s a completely automated process

seems to me this is a case where they're charging not to cover costs, but to modify consumer behavior.  virtual tickets are easier (and cheaper) so the venue operators are trying to steer people towards that option.

Vas lives in Baltimore. Google maps tells me it's 60 mins to DC and 125 mins to Philly from Baltimore. The Philly show is also on a Friday night, whereas the DC show is Thursday.

Also, Philly is maybe 1:50 for me from Towson. 930 club is 1:10. Similar for Vas.

I've said it before and I'll say it again,  it's never worth buying tickets in advance unless there's a risk of a true sellout*.

*that's not including the fake sell outs that have 100s of premium seats, etc.

We figure there would be, but didn't want to risk getting shut out. Also, we didn't get the cheapest that were available, because concert partner wanted  Section 200, to have a straight on view.

he pretty much now refers to him self as Clem Snide now

like even on the promoting of the album
it never said Eef Barzley and Scott avett
it always said Clem Snide & Scott Avett perform "Forever Just Beyond".  (https://youtu.be/GoI-6Y6DOoo)
and it's just the two of them on acoustic guitars

I'll admit that this is 90% me hating Phish but there is 10% of this coming from a point of I thinking this is a valid conversation to have: does Trey deserve some shit for the handling of this? He schedules a tour, his musicians get sick, he continues the tour but tosses them all off with (unless I missed it) no word about continuing to pay them for the shows they are now off of which could impact their ability to get quality COVID-care if needed -- isn't this kind of shitty?

I admittedly think the tour should've been cancelled as well (and I think I posted somewhere that I don't understand the protocols for basically anything at this point).

I also don't think the public has any insight into how bands are paid (not just Trey's band, but any band), but I can gaurantee he still paid those band members. I'm pretty sure he basically did the tour to give those people a paycheck anyway. He's also an obsessive compulsive musician that if given the opportunity, would probably tour 10 months a year.

Edit* However, it seems that a classroom can have a postive case and not send everyone home, so I guess this is same sort of scenario. If you're negative, you're negative...

Well, I'm not sure I would guarantee that. It seems weird in this day and age to announce all these folks are leaving the tour but the tour will go on but not say the obvious great public relations line of "and all of their medical expenses will be covered/all of these folks will be paid for the entire tour" unless (1) you are not doing that or (2) you are some naïve sweet summer child that doesn't get that such a statement is de rigeur nowadays and engenders yourself much good will.

I don't have an issue with the tour going on specifically. If you don't have it, you don't have it. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Why on earth would anyone make a statement saying, "all impacted by Covid will continue to be paid." As I've said, last I checked Trey is worth approximately 100 million dollars, was doing this tour as basically good will for his other band members, and it was about six maybe seven shows that were impacted. I'm sure he coughed up a few grand per show for each player that couldn't participate.

do you think that will sell out?  want to go, but was going to make a day of decision on that

Might go to this one. Do you guys want me to say hi?

Only if you keep your mask on and speak with a very soft voice while the band is playing.

If I try to make small talk, just say "You're boring" or " I don't care." It'll be like I never left home!

Like how excontradiction has somehow managed to avoid Dinosaur/Dinosaur Jr. for 35 years, I have to admit I don't know any Neutral Milk Hotel songs. I mean, the guy's voice is probably distinctive enough that I'd be able to pick it out of a lineup but that's as far as i get with them.

...and the streak continues. I can't make it to Dinosaur Jr. Anyone interested in a single face+fees ticket?

I enjoyed them when they opened for the Walkmen at the Club in 2012. Whether they can hold my attention for 2+ hours remains to be seen....

Like Spoon, they're one of those bands that to me doesn't have a bad song. A few of them are boring, some are great, others are in between. But none are outright bad.

TBH, based on the history I thought I'd be fine
The Anthem show was not sold out (possibly in the last few days?)
The Lincloln show (which was amazing) I don't think ever sold out either and I fairly decent seats were available for a while

Space would never be crunching numbers to see a Nick Cave show.

Though of course I do have a Nick Cave story to tell....I was living in London the Summer of 1989. Or rather, I had lived/worked in London for a couple of months, then Eurrailed for a month, then came back to London and was spending a week or two at a friend's place until my flight home.

My friend and I went to a Butthole Surfers show, and I lost my glasses in the mosh pit. My spare pair of glasses were in my luggage at a different friend's house, but i wasn't able to get to them for a couple of days. So I had to spend a couple of days blindly living in London.

I was blindly out for a walk for food or something and saw a long line of punk types queuing outside a store. I figured maybe they were in line to catch a bus to the Reading Festival, or maybe buying tickets or something. I really couldn't see well enough to tell for sure. So I made my way to the front of the line and squinted to see what the fuss was about, and there in a pink polo was Nick Cave, signing his novel And the Ass Saw the Angel. I snapped a couple of pics and was off. I probably still have the pictures in a dusty photo book somewhere.

A day or two later, I retrieved my spare glasses and was back in business. I've never been to a Butthole Surfers show again, nor have i ever seen Nick Cave again. I apologize that not much happened in this story, but perhaps it is enough the satisfy the Nick Cave fetishists.

I was blindly out for a walk for food or something and saw a long line of punk types queuing outside a store. I figured maybe they were in line to catch a bus to the Reading Festival, or maybe buying tickets or something. I really couldn't see well enough to tell for sure. So I made my way to the front of the line and squinted to see what the fuss was about, and there in a pink polo was Nick Cave, signing his novel And the Ass Saw the Angel. I snapped a couple of pics and was off. I probably still have the pictures in a dusty photo book somewhere.

A day or two later, I retrieved my spare glasses and was back in business. I've never been to a Butthole Surfers show again, nor have i ever seen Nick Cave again. I apologize that not much happened in this story, but perhaps it is enough the satisfy the Nick Cave fetishists.

That would be Yada…

Space is the one driving to Asheville…

Yada would have gotten tickets with his mojo on day of sale for a known tough ticket.

Space would still be crunching numbers in his excel spreadsheet to see if the purchase would impact his retirement in 19 years.

Space would never be crunching numbers to see a Nick Cave show.

No typos either.  Solid story.  Finding your glasses tied this in a nice little bow. Emotional roller coaster.

Couple of clarifications:

1. It is possible that I may not have been carrying my camera and instead ran back home a couple of blocks to fetch it.
2. I didn't find the glasses that were lost and stomped on at the show. I was able to retrieve my spare pair from my luggage that was stored at a different friend's place. Thank goodness I brought a spare pair.
3. Years later, I read the novel, but didn't really like it. I'm just not a Nick Cave guy.
4. At best, I may have kissed someone that summer. No head or bush. A wasted opportunity.
5. Maybe tonight I'll look for the picture and post it here if I can find it.
6. A week later, I flew back to the States. I flew to JFK, took a shuttle to Port Authority at some weird hour, and made my way into the bus station to take a bus to get me closer to home. I got turned around and while trying to find my bearings, this sketchy dude grabbed my suitcase and decided he was going to be my porter. I tried to get my bag from him, first by asking, then forcefully. But he insisted on not giving it back and instead carrying it for me. When we got to my gate he started singing "Tip, tip. tip." And cheap Space that I am, I told him "I'm not giving you a tip, you grabbed my bag and wouldn't give it back when i asked for it back." For the next five minutes or so, he started chanting "College boy! College boy. I could have been anyone. I could have killed you. And I didn't, and you won't give me a tip for carryng your bag. Fucking college boy." Finally, I reached into my bag, gave him my signed copy of And the Ass Saw the Angel, and told him, Here's your fucking tip, the title sums this situation up perfectly. Guess which one you are."

RATM for next month... of next year.  and i somehow missed that last part.  when i saw that they had rescheduled the canceled show for "March", somehow it didn't occur to me that they wouldn't re-book a show this big WITH less than a month's notice.  during the ticket purchase process i completely missed the "2023" on every TM page.  finally figured it out when i tried creating a calendar reminder for myself, and the date and the day of the week didn't match up.

space has always been generous with his beer, with me.  i wouldn't count on needing to bring your wallet, should you score an invite.

he might be watching those pennies before purchase, but once the beer is acquired it's sunk cost.

they don't 'let' you as it would be mayhem, but if a show is less than 70% capacity, making your way to better seat is highly recommended and likely won't be stopped

I have seen artist say something mid-set for all the people up in the cheap seats to come down and fill the front up

This happened to me when I saw Emerson, Lake and Powell at the Cap Center. They had maybe sold the first 15 rows on the floor, with some smattering of fans in cheaper seats. Basically everyone was upgraded to the primo section.

Also, I think U2 was banned from returning to the Cap Center when Bono kept singing "Come on down", and everyone rushed the floor. True story.

I was surprised they weren't playing as well but I was told they usually don't play at these things;  although they do jump onstage with the other bands.  As Hutch said it is a chance to hang with the band in Bob's hometown and people-watch all the GBV nerds that attend. 

I decided to go anyway with my friend who has been before.  It was either this or go to a wedding in PA that weekend.  Choice was pretty obvious.  I'm assuming it will be an interesting weekend.  I'll report back.

Is there a good bar / place to go right there in that area, to before show get a couple of beers, so I can get to my spot in the club with one drink to try to make it last as long as possible, so I don't have to make a trip back to what I will think should be a packed bar and club by the time December gets here.

I was already buying Ween, so if I just go to that, I paid only $25 over cost
but I want to see Rina, MSP/Suede, Whitney, The Reverend Horton heat and the mysterines (and really didn't want to pay $70 to not see AWOL)

There’s always the possibility they announce something in December that I will like

How many of those shows would you have gone to if you didn't buy the pass? That's the real comparison. They're inducing you to spend money you wouldn't have spent.

They're offering you $5,000 worth of concert tickets that might only have personal value of $500 at a cost of $75.

Had I bought a pass, I might pop into a show for 20 minutes, and not feel bad about leaving.

I was planning on going to 2, which would have cost about $125
there were 3-4 more I was on the fence about...especially open act slots

but now I think I'll check out a few others...just wish it wasn't a 45 min drive...takes me only 8 more mins to get to MPP

also I plan to spend ZERO on drinks there and will just stop by Takoma Wellness
(maybe merch which I guess they get a cut of)

Muse, via presale.

i really wanted lower seats, but the presale had nothing good on offer.  took me a few minutes to get through the virtual waiting room so maybe they all disappeared then?  nosebleeds started at $100.  platinums were $220-510 (all prices exclusive of fees, obvs).  settled for a pair of floors at face, which was still way more than i thought i'd be spending.

I think I already documented that in another post. Wasn't planning on going back to Europe anytime soon, but found round trip tickets to Lisbon in the Summer (IAD>MAD>LIS) for $450 each and couldn't resist. Plus, with the Euro sucking and Portugal being already cheap, yada, yada, not that yada....probably no more expensive than a vacation to the West Coast. The ironic part of the story is that nonstop roundtrip to Madrid is over 1K per ticket, but doing the connection to Lisbon brings the price down to less than half that.

Yeah...this is over two decades ago
But we were flying to Venice, and it was cheaper to do a connection in Zurich, which we then actually ended up taking the same flight the next day.  So we were able to spend a whole day in Zurich, with hotel and food covered and it was still significantly cheaper than flying direct to venice

Of course. You take a picture of your ID and give it to the person you are transferring tickets to (have them print the picture and you can add a written line “I am transferring tickets to …” although this is probably not necessary) and they show up at VIP entrance and give them your name, show the picture of your ID(you can cross out personal info I think just not name), and they will give the person your tickets. That’s how I recall it. Call box office to confirm. Not sure how it works if tickets are digital (last night was first time I heard there were some digital super excellent seat tickets)

cool!  please report back in the homebrewing/hydrometer thread.  i'm especially curious to learn about which shrooms can be used.

a well-known person in the homebrewing community (denny conn) makes a chanterelle beer.  this blows many a person's mind because chanterelles are among the most sought-after shrooms and are worth a lot.  he readily admits that the only reason he can make this beer is because his property in Oregon produces more chanterelles than he can eat/dry/etc., so he uses his surplus to give an amber beer a shot of umami.

Chantrell's are very choice, but only found in the wild.  Mushroom farmers have cultivated many types, but these, morels, porcini  and a few more have yet to be reliably cultivated, so the wild ones go for a lot

going for $35-65 per lb dry

I'd go as high as high double digits per ticket. Day of not really possible because you need a hotel room too. And of u have a hotel room, u want the tickets. So I'd possibly wait until day before so that hotel was still cancellable. And what Julian said.

First off, though it's not my cup of tea, Taylor Swift's music is far from shitty.

Secondly, many of her fans are past pre-pubescent. My boss is a big fan, and he's in his 40's (with no kids.)

Thirdly, I'm buying for a family outting. If I'm buying tickets for myself, it's one thing, I'm going to be frugal. If I'm buying a once in a lifetime family experience, I can open the purse strings a bit (though my daughter is not SOOO spoiled that she expects it.)

Fourthly, with a six ticket max, I was definitely planning on buying all six and making a profit off those we didn't need. Though honestly I've never done that before, so not entirely sure how to and if you can do it with verified fan tickets, but I'm a quick learner (once sold tickets on Craigslist 15 years ago, but never on Stubhub, Seatgeek, etc)

requesting 6 tickets at once will greatly increase your chances of not being offered any tickets.  much better off requesting 3 tickets, i.e. what you actually need.

mind you, with the demand being what it is, you're lucky to get a single... expect to be shut out, thank the ticket gods if you're somehow not.

To be honest, I'm glad I've been unsuccessful at this.

For the past 14 months, my daughter told me to "fuck off," or other words to that effect, every time I asked her to wear her retainers at night, and now I'm paying $600 for new retainers tomorrow.

Plus, she does absolutely no chores around the house (and her mother defends this by saying she's "just a child.")

I mean why am I going out of my way to spend hundreds of dollars for this?

definitely don't do parenting for the 'likes'

dang... sidehatch with the killer parenting advice.  nice one.

I'm glad someone understood what he was saying. I mean, I understood what he was saying, but not how it related to what I said.

you asked "why am I going out of my way to spend hundreds of dollars for this?" - the implication being that you're doing it to be nice, AKA "get a like" (term stolen from social media).

Ticketmaster suspends Taylor Swift ticket sales set for Friday after chaotic early rollout (https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/11/17/taylor-swift-ticketmaster-presale/)

from the article:
Quote
"Ticketmaster announced Thursday afternoon that it was halting public ticket sales of Taylor Swift’s “Eras” tour on Friday due to “extraordinarily high demands on ticketing systems and insufficient remaining ticket inventory” to meet demand."

first off, calling off an onsale due to high demand isn't a thing.  their business is literally to meet that demand, and TM constantly touts its supposedly unique ability to handle large onsales. buck up, TM, and deal with the surge.  bring in temporary computing muscle if that's the issue.

second, "insufficient remaining ticket inventory"??  so they sold all the tickets during the presale?  who effed up that one??  or, scenario #2: TM saw that demand from a limited portion of the market (those who got in on the presale) for a limited portion of the inventory (the fraction that was allotted to presales) was more than they could handle, so they bailed on facing off against the whole of the market for the larger portion of the inventory.

if scenario #2 is correct, there are still lots of tickets left.  gee, i wonder what TM will do with a pile of the most in-demand tickets ever that need to be sold but they won't "can't" sell them out the front door... hmmm.... i wonder...

I don’t know what artists can do when people are trying to buy tickets just to scalp them. In today’s world it seems everyone is a would be scalper.

I had heard that there were 2.9 million total tickets and they wre saving 800,000 of those for the general sale. I'm betting they're now saing them to be sold at a much higher price, like Sweetcell said.

I thought they had fixed prices but I guess they could change the price level sections.

Honestly making tickets more expensive doesn’t seem like something Taylor would do. Didn’t she get burned with a previous onsale?

I really haven’t been following this cause  I am not like a Swiftie Stan.

Some insight into Ticketbastard from the founder of Songkick who sued them for abuse of market power along the way...

also and this explains a lot regarding the undercard acts at most large festivals...

Within a few years LN/TM was also the largest festival promoter in the world, the largest artist management company

Taylor Swift: Ticketmaster fiasco ‘excruciating for me’ (https://www.cnn.com/2022/11/18/media/taylor-swift-ticketmaster/index.html)

key quote:

Ticketmaster noted on Thursday that more than two million tickets were sold Tuesday for Swift’s upcoming tour — the most ever for an artist in a single day. The company also said that demand for tickets to the Eras Tour was twice that of 2022’s top five tours and the Super Bowl combined.

the fact that this was, at a minimum, 6X of anything they saw in the past year gives me a bit of sympathy for TM.  and i'm not sure that competition would have mitigated this: more players = smaller piece of the pie each = less money to invest in the required infrastructure.

They charge a ton of money in charges and can’t provide the service? What about the millions that wasted all day trying to get tickets? What about all their screw the fan policies like not even telling you the ticket price until you pull it up?

I think there needs to be some regulation of the service they provide.  Not to mention they really keep fans in the dark about variable pricing, and it’s hard to distinguish ticket resellers on the site from TM!

Maybe they should have staggered the on sale day for the 52 shows rather than putting them all on sale the same Day?

I don’t think they take a cut and if they do it’s pretty small
It is a band by band decision to use lyte
I think it only works if you bought it digitally too, so they already had your info

One thing I wish is you could browse what shows currently are on lyte, as each show has a unique link that typically you can get to from the show page (or via an email)

unless i pull something awesome at the next presale or onsale, imma be looking for some cheap week-of tickets.

I think it's more the ticket model... Last time I saw Beck it was the same exact show from three years earlier and I'm not aware that he's put anything out since. Who is going to drop nearly $200 to see that in a good seat if he's playing the same set he did in 2019??

They should start enticing customers to buy early vs. waiting until the last minute. Have different tiered pricing if you buy early vs. buy late. It's very rare I buy tickets in advance these days unless it's a show I know I won't want to miss.

Basically, the entire front section was platinum VIP and they're all still sitting there. The entire section behind is $44 is is pretty much sold out.

in this particular case those row R seats are not platinum, it's the standard price for lowers ($135).  as far as i can tell they only released a few platinums, and they're completely side-stage - AKA more crappy seats. 

my new theory is that the promoters figured out this show wouldn't sell well, so in the presale they only released meh tickets hoping that the hardcore fans will chomp at the bit and take the chaff - and thus keep the good seats for those who need convincing (AKA selling silver to the fans, then enticing the general public with gold).  if i'm right, their plan backfired.

They should start enticing customers to buy early vs. waiting until the last minute. Have different tiered pricing if you buy early vs. buy late. It's very rare I buy tickets in advance these days unless it's a show I know I won't want to miss.

i think that model works for shows that they don't expect to sell out, or just barely sell out. 

for high-demand shows, the ones that will sell the majority of their tickets in the first few hours or days, it would make sense to have decreasing tickets prices.  folks that really want to attend and/or insist on good seats, will pay the higher price up front; while those on the fence or with price sensitivity will be willing to wait for a discount.

There is a common misconception that to be profitable - to show a profit for the promoter, the venue, the acts - a show must sell well.

I don’t believe it necessarily works that way.

like the act gets a pre-agreed payout even if nobody shows

could you elaborate on that?

my understanding is that for a show to be profitable, you need to sell most of the seats.  if you're only expecting to sell 2,000 ticket, you book the Warner - not (whatever the phone booth is called these days).  you might not need to sell 100% of the tickets to make money, but there is a minimum number needed to break even.  no idea if it's 70%, 85%, or whatever, but a majority of tickets must be sold... i don't think you can break even by selling 5,000 tickets in a 22,000 seat venue, but happy to learn otherwise.

i'm not aware of this occurring... in general, tickets sell for same price on day 1 as they do on night of the show.  if anything, venues tack on a small day-of price bump, like "$40 advance/$45 at door".

I mean every year LN books thousands of shows in sheds that don’t come close to selling out and they make money

The good seats usually sell over time  in most shows…fact nobody bought them in presales doesn’t mean they won’t sell

Point is if a band is playing a venue with 20,000 capacity that doesn’t mean promoter assumes they will sell 18,000 tickets! The offer they make to the act reflects what they think sales will be..Do they get burned once in a while? Sure…but overall they know what they are doing..it’s their ass on line

Yeah, I agree with this. 9:30 Club or The National have half-sold-out shows all the time; the fact both venues remain open despite this tells you they aren't taking a bath on every show with <95% attendance.

Anyone catch any of the testimony the member of the band Lawrence gave yesterday in the LiveNation/Ticketmaster hearing?

This probably isn't all of it but I think the key points are made in this bit, including LiveNation charging the band $250 for 10 towels

Another important exchange

sigur ros & orchestra @ seattle

the band definitely hooked up its (free!) fan club.  at least half the tickets were available, and today was the first of 3 presales before friday's public onsale... can't imagine much will be left by then.

highly varied ticket prices.  i didn't get a chance to see the prices for the first 3 rows (AA, BB, A), but from row B each row got cheaper: $330, 295, 255, 218, then 165 for most of the rest of the floor, with a few rows of $145 at the back.  balcony went $165, 145, 95, 75, 55.

Thanks, would have been our first show together. But I'll be be in Lisbon with a flight to the Azores the next morning. So not really disinterest.

I also feel like Wilco has sort of priced themselves beyond what I want to pay to see them at this point. So many other worthy hobo acts I can give my money to.

One person said they would have been into it at Atlantis (450 capacity) but not 930 (1200 capacity)

Another said his solo shows are boring and they would be into it only if it was Wilco.

These people killed my excitement and now must pay.

Ha!  Not exactly.

The gist of the genre was before your time Yada.

As per Wiki-
Cowpunk (or country punk) is a subgenre of punk rock that began in the United Kingdom and Southern California in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It combines punk rock or new wave with country, folk, and blues in its sound, lyrical subject matter, attitude, and style.[1][3] Examples include Social Distortion,[4] The Gun Club, The Long Ryders, Dash Rip Rock, Violent Femmes, The Blasters, Mojo Nixon, Meat Puppets, The Beat Farmers, Rubber Rodeo, Rank and File, and Jason and the Scorchers.[5] Many of the musicians in this scene subsequently became associated with alternative country, roots rock or Americana.

Caught a bunch of these bands at the old 9:30  (including Escovedo's Rank and File).  Great fun!

You will be very happy to know that I stupidly paid full price for that very show, that very night. Though I have since traded my ticket for a  a Friday night Walkmen ticket.

Still hoping to land cheap tickets to Caroline Polachek, The National (Tues),  MMJ, and Duran Duran.

8 bucks for that Liz Phair show would work too, but I'll be in the Midwest at the in-laws.

Doesn't that get infinitely harder if the show is sold out as opposed to not sold out?

I have about fives shows on five separate nights I'm considering in the space of eight days starting Friday. (A sixth one on a sixth night already sold out.) That's a rarity for me. I already have tickets to two of the nights. I suppose if I miss one or even several of them it's not the end of the world.

it's certainly easier and more likely to find a cheap ticket to a not-sold-out show, but i've had plenty of experience both buying and selling tickets for sold out shows at or below cost.  if it's VERY sold out, a la Springsteen or Taylor Swift, then you're not getting anything cheap.  but for your average sold out show keep checking CL, FB marketplace and eBay in addition to the online scalpers (stubhub etc.) in the ~10 days leading up to the show.  there are always folks who can't make the show anymore, had a friend drop out, etc. 

sometimes it's hard finding buyers for sold-out shows - perhaps demand has been met, or folks who got initially shut out have given up on getting tickets?  i recently had to sell my Muse tickets - floors! - at a loss.  i posted them on several sites, including on the main Muse message board, and only got lowball offers.

It definitely sucks if you don’t know what you’re doing….I see people all the time in the wrong places.

I have to say all I get are compliments about the venue itself from people leaving.

The outside lines can sometimes be too long.

Oh and the faucets are being changed. Starting from floor level which I think has been done completely and going up.

If a show is sold out I like house right on floor to the left of bar. If you get there early box 2 or 3 behind seats are good.

Reeses are the favorite of everyone in my family.

I'm the only only who is going to pair them with a stout with a higher abv than a Guinness.

THE CURE !!!!!1!!¡!1!!

Keep refreshing, people, for what you want. I got pretty good seats. Passed a few times on lawn seats over the past few weeks.
One issue? No "parking" tickets are available. It's a long walk from here.

Been to Merriweather a bunch and I always get the parking tickets but don't remember actually ever being asked to scan them? Would this be a problem? Any suggestions (aside from giving back the tickets, no no no nope.... holy crap I got Cure tickets....)

Parking passes are irrelevant and  only cause confusion (hey seth)... just show up and park.

According to the Velocity Girl FB page, there are fans coming in from out of town for the show.  It didn’t sellout in a minute due to causal fans of either Velocity Girl or Ted Leo.

unfortunately that's you're best chance at scoring tix.  otherwise, hit refresh as often as you can and watch this thread in hopes that someone lets you know that tix have become available...

Precisely how I managed to get tix to more or less every Atlantis show I wanted to attend this summer after only scoring one in the initial lottery (I didn't try for the Foos).

Not hard to do while working from home.


Where do you guys get the time to ticket hunt for sold out shows while on work time?
I don't know who this Adamopp character is, but methinks I want to get on their good side to get a plus 1 to the pretenders show :)

MUTINY IN HEAVEN: THE BIRTHDAY PARTY
Hailed as "a one-band war," The Birthday Party with Nick Cave was one of the definitive post-punk groups — they were goth rock pioneers, creative and destructive in equal measure. Their incendiary live performances were the stuff of violent, anarchic legend. Featuring a wealth of rare and unseen archival material, original artwork, unreleased tracks, studio footage and animation, and told exclusively by the group's members, MUTINY IN HEAVEN is a story of epic struggle, artistic genius and total chaos, bringing the band's own account to the screen for the first time. Featuring Nick Cave, Rowland S. Howard, Mick Harvey, Phill Calvert and Tracy Pew. DIR/PROD Ian White; PROD Greg Blakey. Australia, 2023, color, 98 min. NOT RATED

there maybe a sidehatch/kosmo parley at this show, but absolutely no pictorial evidence will occur of this...

Belle and Sebastian at Union Transfer. I think Anthem is completely wrong for them as a venue, and even though I've seen them there and enjoyed it, they're better off at the 9:30. I think I'll sit out the Anthem show and try to see them at venues that they're better suited for.

It’s certainly ambitious considering the last time they played Anthem there couldn’t have been more than 1500 there…AND that they are playing The National relatively nearby

Will be interesting to see…

I was surprised they didn’t announce something like playing Sinister album to get tickets to move…

TBT the only time I saw Belle was at Anthem and I enjoyed it a lot! Got up real close… I had tickets to see them their first time in DC area at Black Cat but had to be out of town for work. That hurt.

Sorry to say that the Black Cat show was one for the books. I saw them in Chicago at the Metro on that tour, and it wasn't great. By the time they got to DC, they worked out whatever issues were bugging them (<cough>Isobel and Stuart</cough>) and it was a fantastic performance. The Anthem show was definitely one where I was like "this shoulda been at the 9:30". If Philly is great, I might try to see the Anthem gig, but I'm not counting on it. I hate to be someone that dumps on a venue, but it's got to be the right band to fill the space. And it's really hit or miss for me. Sometimes the energy in that room dissipates and performances fall flat, no matter how good the band. It's a bummer.

Yeah, Philly and DC are not the same. B&S can't sell out Philly in one day, at a size smaller than 930 (show not sold out). They can't even sell out Sleater-Kinney at TLA.  Sucks that we don't have any 2000 capacity venue that is owned by IMP.

Rapids are the area in front of the stage, there's a separate ticket for cutting the line that doesn't seem needed.

Thanks for clarifying. Yeah, it's sort of like a cordoned part of the field closest to the stage. Like if you've ever been to a concert in a football stadium where the field is all GA standing but there's a "GOLD CIRCLE" section at the front that's like SUPER GA, that's what those tickets are.

I thought the Atlantis ticket exchange site was face value only? But it's seems like that's not the case.

For example, when I click on GBV (not going but just using it as an example), it gives me several ticket options at varying prices, some above face value.

What's up with that?

Been there many times. The open the "gates" at 5:30 for those who have tickets, and seating is first come first served. Show starts promptly at 6. For some shows, there's a pretty decent line that starts forming prior to 5:30. For some shows, not so much. I'm not sure if a ticket guarantees you a seat. I do remember one show that was "oversold" and I arrived around 6pm and didn't get through the "gates." Though I was able to stand and watch in the very back (which I suppose you could do even if tickets were "sold out." and you lacked a ticket) The show ends at 7. Only one have I seen it go over that time...and that was when the show was moved to a bigger KC venue (happened a couple of times I think when the act was hugely popular.)

Not sure about the release of reserved tickets. I always get the tickets sent to my phone. Would that mean if I arrive at 6:05, my tickets are cancelled and given to someone else? Or maybe that just happens for someone who chooses to pick up physical tickets and doesn't show?

Beth orton, Millenial stage.  Hopefully I can get off work early enough.  Has anyone actually gotten tickets for a millenial stage gig?  What actually happens, how does it help you? When do you need to arrive by?

It's a hard 1 hour that's also simulcast. Starts nearly right at 6, maybe 6.02 and will run to 6.55-7pm.

I go pretty often and try to reserve a ticket prior. If it says sold out, it's not truly sold out, but you may end up standing way in the back if the box office has no tickets to hand out.

They open seating at 5.30pm and will scan your ticket. If it's high profile there'll be a line forming well before 5pm.

Seating is regular row chair and then you can sit on the steps of the theatre. Some performances are jam packed and some just moderate. There are reserved seats for the disabled that they will open up to the non disabled about 15-20 min into the performance.

There's a big space in front of the first row of chairs for dancing so your view may be blocked/interrupted by toddlers or adults getting their wiggle on. Only twice in over 20 years of attending shows there did they remove the seats and make it standing only due crowd size.

oh damn, Air!  that's great news, doesn't seem like a sell out?

dunno about DC, but over here the presale went FAST.  clearly a lot of demand.  the ticket gods smiled upon me: i initially got back-of-floor seats (row 34 of 44) on the side, while my workmate struck out.  while chatting about his bad luck, rando seats started appearing and disappearing on the seating map.  took a minute of furious clicking but i eventually managed to snag a second pair at the dead-center of the floor. front row platinum seats still available for $389 + fees ;D

they're playing a 2,500 seat symphony hall (Benaroya) which i'm excited to finally check it out.

A lot of shows on this Air tour are 3000 capacity. And there isn’t really room to add shows…..although they might add one in NYC…. I don’t know how 3000 capacity is expected to work there….and isn’t the Beacon sit down?

I think they are all pretty much going to sell out. I mean they haven’t toured in forever and playing their most popular album?

You guys will be happy to know I'm going to none of them. I'll play the Air cd for the first time in 10 years and skip the rest! Cheers.

Air - good on record, boring live.

I'll admit, last time I saw Air at the Strathmore they underwhelmed a bit. It seemed like they rushed through the set, like they played it at maybe 1.2x speed. But their show years ago (walkie talkie?) at 9:30 was incredible.

Impossible.
Also, I'm not in the band. They were the ones zipping through it.

I agree about the Air show at the club. They had an amazing drummer with them who was likely trained as jazz drummer because he had that ability to shift from quiet/laid back to explosive

Disagree. This isn't a rock band. They're psychedelic lunar space jazz/funk. Nicolas' fuzzed-out bass is a thing of beauty to hear live. They always have consistently good drummers. I also think songs like "Cherry Blossom Girl", "Radian" and "You Make It Easy" are meant to be gentler accompaniments to the climactic freakout of "La Femme D'Argent", "Don't Be Light" and in 2004 that insane version of "Alpha Beta Gaga" which turned it into this freaky terror...like if Dario Argento had a scene at a rave. I think they're worth revisiting live, and this tour will be special.

I don’t usually like to read long form breakdowns of music/concerts on here because I’m the only one here with any actual writing chops or anything to say that rises to the level of “insightful,” but this is well put, and I agree, Bearman.

Also congrats on your P7 last weekend.

I have it on good authority that when kosmo updated the certificate, he also included co-pilot.

Same thing, though I'd skip the all-caps.

“Must've” is simply a contraction of “must have.” Combining the words like this is fine in less formal writing or speech and makes grammatical sense. “Must of,” on the other hand, is almost always a mistake. As a result, you should avoid this combination of words in most cases
