Los Campesinos played the same song 11 times in a row at the Ottobar this past winter.

I'm in the exact same boat. Thought about it but that price is completely unjustifiable.


yesh, 29 for beirut. i've been always wanting to see him since the clusterfuck that took place at the warehouse nextdoor but i don't think i can justify the price.

It's sucks too, b/c TM has two fees added to the ticket. So the total is approx. $40 if you do snail mail (free). One suggestion is to tag up w/ others and do a bulk order. The fees don't inflate.
I wish I had it in me to just ignore the show and to demonstrate against the high price, but as we all know there is always someone willing to pay the cost and go.

If you call the 6th & I box office directly to purchase (For Beirut), there are no service charges.

Sorry, that's what I did earlier and it worked. I'm sure Live Nation controls most of the ticket inventory and provides 6th & I with a limited supply.

Um....no.  I thought they put on a hell of a show considering they were missing a band member and Gareth's voice started going 3 songs from the end.

Couple of dc9 shows:
Harlem Shakes - Apr 11
Japandroids - May 4
Illinois - May 7
(anyone know why Illinois have played dc9 4 or 5 times in the last couple of months? is it a show for each one of their EP's that they are releasing?)

For sweetcell and most likely only sweetcell:
Shpongle
5/2
Irving Plaza
$31.50

If this is a full band set, I guess it's justifiable while still high but if Simon thinks a significant amount of people will pay that much for a dj set, all that dmt has finally warped his brain beyond repair.

predictably enough, blame the DMT.  damn wishful thinking.  certainly makes this much less interesting... hopefully they'll add a bunch of other acts to the bill.

With Paramore.

$10 lawn tickets, apparently

Is it wrong that I'm considering paying $10 to go to this just to see two attractive girl-fronted bands?

Somebody posted about Spoon playing GW in late April. I've been checking their website everyday to confirm the show, and I've yet to see anything show up. Any follow up?

No. The girl-fronted band that opened for Plants and Animals was fukkin' epic. The fact you are willing to go out to Nissan for two horrible bands is wrong, though.
