Gang of Four May 20th??
« on: March 16, 2005, 12:54:00 pm »
Every website seems to say this show is a done deal...May 20th, Gang of Four (original lineup) at 9:30. But no ticket information or confirmation by the club...
 
 What is up?

The show is happening, their PR firm has guest listed me...for whatever reason tickets aren't on sale yet, maybe up to the band or their management. Rest assured the show is going to be announced.

Anyone know when the NYC Gang of Four shows go on sale? I got tickets to see Spamalot in NYC on the 20th and am thinking about going up a couple days early to see Gang of Four.

Okay, I DO get 9:30 email updates, I do check the website regularly, and I do receive a variety of ticket seller emails...but no mention of the Gang of Four show.
 
 So...how do I get myself to be more in the know?
 
 OR...why isn't the show listed yet?
 
 help, oh please help!

Patience, my boy! The fact that you already know they're coming puts you well ahead of many people even remotely interested in seeing Gang of Four. Many of my friends didn't even know they reformed. As soon as tickets are announced, just look here and you'll know. It's really that simple. You'll be fine, I swear. HONEST. You can go drink some nice soothing herbal tea and lay off the coffee the rest of the day  ;)

for whatever reason the 9:30 club announces their shows later than most venues, so just keep checking back. Weds & Thursday are always the best

i always heard patience was a virtue, but I never had the time to believe it.
 
 Maybe a little bourbon.
 
 But seriously, are the Irving Plaza shows really still available? I really thought this tour might have sold out rather quickly.

Pollstar is still listing the show as TBA for the 20th.  But I saw Seth's reply a while back and have been waiting patiently.
 
 (now if only x-ray spex would get back together...)
 
 Kosmo, Irving Plaza is nice venue...I saw Orbital there back in 95 or 96.  And I have tix for Spamalot the end of April.

Didn't Polly Styrene run off and join the Hare Krishnas?

Nothing over in the FAQ, nothing on the website, and nobody chatting up this show? Is it that it may not be happening or am I the only one stoked about GoF's tour--w/the original band.
 
 I met Dave Allen a few times during the World Domination days of signing bands and he seemed pretty determined not to play with the Gang again...
