[eltee]

I'm in.

[Dr. Anton Phibes]

I'm not a big fan of the "sold out" show scene,but I couldn't turn down free ticks for this one! Looking forward to Secret Machines also.....

[SalParadise]

 i hope they're still playing "untitled"..

[Chip Chanko]

I decided not to go tonight, so I have 2 tickets for sale (also listed in ticket x-change).
 
 UPDATE>>>TICKETS ARE SOLD

[grotty]

Looking forward to your show reviews. I had to give up my tix for this one. Don't feel too bad for me though - I'll get to see them in NYC on Thursday night.

Someone please take a nice, long look at gorgeous Carlos D. and then telepathically send the image my way ...  :p
 
 Cheers

I got in line around 6pm, around 6:30pm a car pulls in front of the club and out pops Paul and Carlos. A kid in front of me, dressed in a suit, made a "squee!" sound and headed towards Paul. That poor man.
 
 Great show tonight...managed to secure the same spot on the balcony as last night.
 
 But, before I go any further...PUBLIC PERVERT!!!.  
 
 On the opening acts:
 
 On!Air!Library!...Meh. They were running late and it seemed to affect their performance overall.
 
 Secret Machines...they had the street teamers out in force. They were handing out stickers and buttons while we were waiting in line. On the balcony, I was standing next to some label folks who were affiliated with the band.
 
 I liked their set, but I probably wouldn't go see them if/when they headline. Some good songs, but nothing great.

the rockstar ending of the first song kind of blew the rest of the set.  they did the same thing in toronto as well.  just kind of made me think 'whatever'.

i thought it was a good set from interpol, but not great. very solid show though. i'm very disappointed that their set was only an hour. i was expecting at least an hour and a half with 2 full albums released now. no stella! no ca'mer!
 
 what was up the with crowd? they were dead! and what was that fight about that broke out near the left bar, by the food station? i turned around and saw the bartender and cook flying over the bar and a bouncer go running back to squelch things.
 
 although i know interpol has moved past the club sized venue due to their popularity, i really hope that they still stick to majority small size venues and just do multiple night stands. it just gives their show that extra something special. i really wouldn't want to seem them at constitution hall or bender arena.

whilst watching SM from the balcony, i looked to the floor and the crowd was like a painting!!!!
 
   like someone drew them in.  
 
 
 really people, is it lame to show excitement for live music?

I've been saying this for years, but then someone comes around and says its the bands fault, or we payed the money so we can just stand there if we want or someone complains that you show to much excitement and that they got bumped a little bit and get mad. I don't think we can win this one.

[malkmess]

i agree, nobody was really moving last night. i was a few people back from the stage in between paul and carlos, and i was bouncing around during "slow hands" and felt like i was the only one. it was bizarre. but the band i thought were great. and i agree, "nyc" was definitely a highlight of the evening.

thats classic. these people need to get over themeselves.

[Bombay Chutney]

I agree that the crowd was ridiculously still and quiet (not that I was any different).  Then again, I wasn't all that impressed with Interpol.  I thought they lacked energy and weren't terribly interesting to watch.  They weren't doing anything to get the crowd very excited and the crowd wasn't doing anything to rev-up the band. I liked their Curiosa show a lot better than this one.
 
 The last 4-5 songs were terrific though. Not a bad show - just not a very exciting one.

[sonickteam2]

ok my take
 
   the Secret Machines rule and i will try to go see them whenever i possibly can. i even bought a shirt!  i just love how they can take it up or down so smoothly....and the beats are great and i like the keyboardists voice too. i like thier setup and that alone gives them an interesting stage presence...and those lamps...its almost like you're watching a play or something.  very very cool too when they turn them out for a while and get slow and then bang em all on again....i was eating it up!!! haha.
 
   Interpol was very good....they are such a tight unit.   the crowd sucked sorta, but me and the girlfriend were a little drunk so we didnt mind that we were sorta bumping into people (just a touch, they didnt seem to mind either)
 
   i love Slow Hands...they need more songs like it.....good show, but SM are just better.......
 
 and whenever you see Skeeter/Bombay its a good night    
 
  and that sugartastic blondie girl too .... btw, that cd is just bad....where did you get it?
