Anyone pick up pre-sale tix for the 9/11 show @ the Strathmore in Bethesda?
 
 Looks to be an amazing show!

Guess too many people were falling asleep at their shows...
 
 
 In a recent interview, keyboardist Kjartan Sveinsson said they are making the sound of their new album ??more solid.? He explained: ??We are aiming for a Korn and Papa Roach kind of thing."

Same here as well.  I called Strathmore to see if they had any info about location of pre-sale seats, but none was available when I called.  It'll make me crazy if I don't know where the seats are until I have the tix in hand, but hoping for the best!

I'd like to go but...
 
  - $40!!!!
  - Strathmore is nice, and in good location for me (just down the street actually) but not a great place for Sigur Ros methinks.
  - Korn and Papa Roach? And they want fewer people falling asleep?
  - $40!!!!

OK, so the pre-sale site couldn't give out seat information, right?
 
 Well, I just picked up my tickets tonight and they are second row center-ish...so hopefully others who bought pre-sales don't have anything to worry about either.

falling asleep at a Sigur Ros show is like falling asleep in your car overnight on the side of the highway in a blizzard.
