what a bunch of jerks.  They are not that important.  God. 



Having something that is fun makes them jerks.  Geez I am sure if Nick Cave made a similar request you would be more than happy to do it to see his has-been show.

I love idea.  As someone who suits up daily, I can't tell you how many times I've felt uncomfortable or been harassed by fellow concert goers because I didn't have time to go home and change before making it to a show.

Oh wait, that's right, I don't care what other people think of me.  Nevermind.

They suck so bad they are headlining Verizon Center.  Men's Warehouse will rent you the attire.

You're not going as Thor?

Do you really love the idea, or are you just saying it because you saw it?

P.S.  You're not being harassed because of your CLOTHING.....

They said "please wear", it's not like they are going to prevent you to get in...

In Louisville they play at the Kentucky Fried Chicken Yum Arena. For this one only I would get a costume... involving a lot of cooking oil.


i am gay and i like cats

To everyone really upset about us asking people to dress up at our shows? please relax. It's super not mandatory. It just makes for a more fun carnival when we are all in it together. So far these have been the best shows we have ever played.
See you soon.
Love,
Arcade Fire

We can hate them just for the fact they used "super not".  What are they?  Sorority girls?

I notice there are several seats in the first seven rows available for the Bad Seeds on Ticketmaster.  The price point is $201 ("The Signature VIP Package").  Hm.

So eager to know where my Sandbox pre-sale tickets are located.  ;)

My guess is we'll be right behind the VIP seats.  However, at DAR there's a huge section between the first row and the front of the stage, so my guess is you'll be able to get up there if you really want.

Also, I really hate VIP seats.  I understand why bands sell them, but it takes away the magic of being able to get a seat up close.
