GRR--want to shout expletives as this is not coming to DC

[emmanuel]

Yeah, had to check where this was, in case they were coming a bit closer like Philly but NYC is too far. Actually they played a festival set where I was this summer, but I was not going to pay 110$ for the only decent band that day.

Holy shit.

It's a benefit for FRESHFARM's Matching Dollars program,  which helps make fresh food more affordable to customers who spend their government nutritional benefits (SNAP, WIC, SNFMNP) at market by matching purchases.

just to explain the high price tag.

I saw PG in 2007 or 2008 at Univ of Maryland.

I saw him a few times too. I was surprised that he was not particularly tight on solo piano. I know he is a composer, but I expected that songs he wrote 30 years ago had many years of practice. In any case, I still prefer to see the composer playing than a "cover" artist, as we would say for rock music.

I would prefer to separate the idea of going to shows and supporting foundations, but I guess I am free to go or not.

I'll probably go, but if I am going to Philip Glass, i'll probably leave around 3pm.

[Rogue Riderhood]

Sounds good.  I am trying to get there as early as possible, but what time I leave is out of my hands.  I would love to also see Wet Brain and Second Best Westerns.

[azaghal1981]

Looks tempting.
