Tony Conrad as the improv artist in residence could be amazing.

Oh, it's Thurston Moore.

Seems pretty reasonable for one of the best live bands of all time.  I guess I would look into whether you get that 8 dollars back if they cancel as they have been known to do that.

930 charges at least $8 for a $15 ticket....

[Vas Deferens]

^ ok yeah, but the $4 processing fee is 930's.

Not true at all.  If the Echo and the Bunnymen were a reliable band most likely they would not have played the Black Cat last time they came through town.  They would have been at the 930 club.  And I am sure they would have charged at least 35 bucks.

[azaghal1981]

Umm, they played the 930 club last time they were in town. I was there. They played all of Heaven Up Here and Crocodiles. It was sold out. Unless they came back since then.

They cancel one tour in 2009 over a dispute with the IRS.  Ian cancelled some solo dates in 2012 and DC wasn't on that tour
