AIR tonight.

Lots of decent seats still available. I think the Strathmore needed to better promote this show. Hopefully it'll be a decent audience.

There is a goldstar deal that seems to cancel out the savings after fees.  https://www.goldstar.com/events/north-bethesda-md/electronic-duo-air-tickets

Tix were definitely overpriced and I'm sure that kept the attendance lower...but AIR is one of the best live bands I've ever seen so they're worth it.

I think it's not selling because they're expensive.  It's even on jukely.

I'm curious if the band gets their cut no matter what's sold...and the Strathmore is responsible for setting the price that they deem "acceptable". Because to me it was definitely on the more expensive side. I'm pretty sure tickets to their show in Boston were $45. Though in Chicago they're crazy expensive too.

I think part of the price is AIR's and another part is renting out Strathmore for one night...they just pass all costs to the consumer.

well i am no expert but often times when a band is setting up a tour they field offers...and the venues/promoters tell them how much they are guaranteed etc and bands usually go with the highest offer

ultimately the band -to me- is the responsible party- for the prices...i've mentioned before how people get outraged at ticketmaster for service charges but the band gets a nice cut of that..

I'd love to see Franz Ferdinand this week.. one of the best live bands I've seen... the group has changed a bit since I last saw them...


maybe Cracker.. I know I know.. but I love anything David Lowery does.. well almost...

Teen feet tall (local band) final show on the 16th..
