Yeah Yeah Yeahs

YYYs don't have shows the two days surrounding the 9:30 Date.  What are the odds that they play two nights?

I thought my commentary was spot on. The band dresses like gutter trash. Amazingly, they also sound like gutter trash. [/b]

so we're judging bands now on what they look like?

No, I'm just pointing out the strange coincedence that they both look - and sound - like vile street urchins. Fever To Tell is maybe the most overhyped album of this decade.

[you be betty]

well, i don't think it's overhyped.  but you're entitled to your opinion.
 
 however, i might not respect it in the future, if the basis of your argument is that the artists look like hobos.

I'm a hobo.

No, there are lots of artists I like that look like hobos. They just don't sound like hobos. The only people I'm really and truly predjudice against are the jews, of course.

Yes, because the "buzz" and "hype" has really flown for Billy Corgan for the last 10 years.   :roll:  What a ridiculous statement.

It was indie hype that led to an Arctic Monkey sellout before the show was even announced.  

this show was announced on the mailing list about three weeks before it sold out. [/b]

I realize -- I meant announced publicly in the CityPaper, Post, website, etc.  My point was the hype worked -- pretty frickin' fast sellout for a band that's had an album out for mere weeks and was only announced in an email.

Hobos?  Street Urchins?  WTF?  They are the exact opposite!  Grunge was street urchins and hobos.  YYYs are so NOT that.  They are completely art school/hipster/NYC I-am-trying-WAY-too-hard.  
 
 Ripped tights?  Gel in the hair? FAKE! When has that ever been street urchin or hobo?  They are MisShapes "get a look for the sake of a look" all the way.  It's just the "affected" bohemian look.   She buys her tights, opens the package, and tears them.  Nick (or whatever his name is), puts more product in his hair than I ever did back in the 80's.  Not saying judge a band on their looks, but c'mon, this is more affected than even Duran Duran with their ghey makeup.

Sold out, or is my computer being stupid?

Tickets.com says tickets aren't on sale until tomorrow (3/2) at 10:00AM, which is strange because I purchased mine last Saturday morning.

Looks like I was about 14 hours early on my "sold out?" post.  Does the 9:30 Club do this often, i.e. "soft sale" the concert, take it down, and then advertise/sell the regular way?
