Per the lady running the box office when you call the venue:

Doors 7
Super-Secret Mystery Opener 8
MBV 9

Get there early, folks!

So much for Dino Jr/J. Mascis rumours: Kurt Easley (of The Lilys) confirmed as the opener. :(

Made it to the venue with 30+ minutes to spare. Now unwinding with a Magic Hat #9 draft. Tasty beer. The National is a very nice venue! I'm about 12 feet from the stage in the middle and wearing a gray athletic shirt if anyone wants to say hi.

P.S. Big thanks to Christine for the recap posts! You rock!

I had to bail due to a late night and early morning at work tomorrow, so I couldn't be happier for the opener NOT to be Dinosaur Jr!

Enjoy kids!

Hey Julian, you turning Northern English on us and dropping your h's?  :D It's Kurt Heasley.

Anyone else think that Kurt is morphing into Stephen Malkmus?

Ok just got out of the national.  Awesome show.  Last song had to be the song where people said they threw up at coachella after hearing it.  I didn't meet any boardies however I did run into Christine but I didn't introduce myself.  Christine you asked me while I was in line if this was the line for will call tickets.  Didn't realize it was you at first but then saw the shirt and thought thats her.  I wanted to ask you about the ones and the twos  ;D  I hoarded the whole show on video and will upload that some time next week.  Not sure how it will sound as I was left side right in front of the speaker.  Hopefully it's not distorted.  I must drive to NJ now for all points now.  Wheres a cat photo?

in cases you want a name for it, it's called the "holocaust section" of You Made Me Realise (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You_Made_Me_Realise)

Two girls next to me bolted after the third song with hands on ears. Then during 'Realise' a group of jockish dudes took off with defeated looks on their faces.
Not only brain massage, the hair on my arms was sticking straight up vibrating to the music.
It was cool to see/hear they really aren't just Kevin's band.
Debbie and Colm are a tight rhythm section that make them shine live.

Words can not describe how intense that was.

Seriously - Wow.
