The problem is that shows like these are bound to sell-out before 7pm when at least some of us working people can make it to the club to buy tickets at the box office...what can I say..I'll prolly be $22 down if the show doesn't sell out by the evening..

Go for a lunchtime jog to the club and get tickets like I always do. Probably about 5 or 6 miles round trip, if you work in the city.

yeah, i may pick that too...except I am seeing Muse 3 times in 5 days before the Interpol show, so i may just be too tired...and we'll see if Interpol tix are around on Sat night.
 
   wouldnt be so bad if i didnt need to buy 2 tickets for all these shows!    :eek:

Sorry, today I am weightlifter boy.

[thirsty moore]

Then you'd definitely be able to pick up some tickets.

death cab and interpol would be my vote.
 
 and we just paid $117 for 4. but i can't get to the club until sunday night and i'm 95% sure it will be sold out by then so we had to give into the ridiculous fees.

actually the full charge for the toronto ticket including fees and shipping was $20.45 (US).
 i love canadia.
 
 so i get to go up there, eat great food, see interpol, see explosions in the sky twice and see friends.

That's true on a more analytical level.  But it's fairly accurate to say they simply sound like Joy Division at times.  Not terribly useful as far as a review goes, but JD's sound is an obvious influence on them.

well one place i know i'm eating more than once is vegetarian haven (formerly health haven over by the airport by mississauga).
 i stopped by there again last august on the way back from montreal, but they were closed -- the sign said something about some expo or something, but i'm wondering if it had anthing to do with the blackout as well...

hah. i really don't like heights (i don't like driving over the bridge to get to canada even), so i won't be going up there.  we thought about going up the first time i went, but i didn't want to pay to go up.. heh

Honestly, I don't think I've ever heard an INTERPOL song before.  Do they suck?
 
 Joy Division sucks.(Muy esposa like's them, though)
