[Vas Deferens]

If you were a brooklynvegan (www.brooklynvegan.com) reader, you'd know that they released great seats yesterday morning for both United Palace shows

yes thanks for the update. i also had an email from bowery presents also telling me there were tickets available at the door for that show. and i really wasnt up to wandering washington heights by my lonesome hoping for a ticket. granted ive never been to washington heights, so it might be a great safe neighborhood, but i wasnt about to go see.
 
 and i read brooklynvegan when i can. i got a little disturbed when my pic kept showing up at the website at all the same shows. a friend kindly pointed me out everytime he saw me in a pic.

I'm not based in NYC, I live blocks from the 9:30 club! I'm just a frequent rider of the Chinatown bus/from Brooklyn. (Hence the name: I-escaped-Brooklyn, i-xkpd-bk)
 
 But yah! I'm not going to the AF show at Radio City tonight, but I expect it to be amazing! Instead I'll be catching the Air show. CANT. WAIT.

ixk: so you stayed in NYC for Bjork (Sat), AF (Mon) and Bjork again (Tues)... Then going to see Air tonite at the 930?
 
 Those Chinatown buses have cheap fares...

Wellllllllllllllllll...
 
 I came to work on Monday, then left half-day to get the bus up to catch AF. Took off on Tuesday, and went to Bjork yesterday. Got the Chinatown bus back this morning.
 
 Oh, and the show was PHENOMENAL (as expected), Jonas Sen (her keyboardist/pianist) gave me his setlist for the night. I just scanned it in, enjoy!

 Here's some of the better pics I snapped from the 5th row at the SF show!
 
 Just...mindblowing.

The shows that I've seen this tour, or all of her shows I've seen period?

[Vas Deferens]

Just this tour    You really can't compare with the previous tours because they're all different.

Best Show of Tour: San Francisco
 2nd Best: Denver (this was the more FUN of the 5 shows)
 3rd: Apollo
 4th: United Palace
 5th: Radio City
 
 Seriously, she just got BETTER and BETTER with this tour. Every show got continuously better, the setlists changed ALL the time, and she was just getting more and more comfortable/playful with the audience as the shows went on.
