I just listened to the album, too.  Anyone want to sell me an extra?

Ouch.
 
 
 Been a shitty week of shut-outs for me.
 
 
 Sharon Jones, Yeasayer and now this.
 
 The first two hurt a lot more but still...

Aww, I didn't think people like them so I only picked up 1 ticket last Friday. Sorry to hear.
 I guess I got lucky.

I actually got the last two remaining tickets for myself and a friend, with all the media and NPR covering it, etc. they didn't even allow any paid reserves.  Apparently tickets were going on ebay for $100 for the sold out NYC show.

It's like a guestlist spot that you have to pay for I think.

I'd love to buy an extra, if anyone has one.

yet another one to be filed under under "bands that i don't get".  listened to their album twice, thought it was decent but can't say that i was motivated to go out and see them.  apparently i'm in the minority.  again.  maybe their live show is really kick-ass?  for those lucky enough to be going, please write a short review and let us know how it was.

What venue is this at? I don't recall seeing this mentioned in the Just Announced thread.... Must have missed it. Damn.

I kind of agree that the hype over them is a little too much. Still, they do write some catchy songs and I could see their shows being fun. Definitely not sweating missing this one as much as the other two shows I mentioned here, though.
