do i want to go to the show on the 9th or the one of the 10th?!? i can't decide... so someone else decide for me...


please...

DSikes

Well, I suppose less people would go on the 9th being as it's a Thursday. People still in school would most likely opt to go on Friday. So I guess it depends on what type of crowd you're looking for.

rain7look

since they can't tour in MICHIGAN . . . I'll be heading over to Chicago or Toronto for a show. whichever I can afford at the time.

BUT, before that happens, I'll be seeing them in Ann Arbor in October. for free.

I'm excited.

Tempe Arizona

Does anyone know if any AZ show are coming up?

thephantommilk

grr... I still haven't found any more information about the Boston show.

I've been checking the Avalon's website, FNX's website, ticketmaster, and Ok Go's show page.

I might want to do a random google search tonight... although I doubt it'd help.

jedi_grrlie

Fuck fuck.

NJ, NY, and MA all in a row....I'd totally skip school that week and go on a road trip....if I was in the US...


Also, it's nice to know that they're still playing places like Irving Plaza and the Avalon, which are by no means huge. Well. I don't know about the Avalon, never been there. But Irving's really not that big. I hate that venue, though....

Sooooo.....

who wants to pay for my train to Toronto?

rain7look

Ann Arbor.

My best friend, my sister, and I are going so far. Does anyone know what time the Ann Arbor show starts? That would be handy . . .

Um, so I was just doing some research for the Trinity 'Space on venues, and this is what I found on Ticketmaster for the Philly show:

OK Go and Cheap Trick
Theatre of Living Arts, Philadelphia, PA

hahaha. Damian's wet dream finally comes true?!

(FYI, Cheap Trick is kind of cheap live. No pun intended. They're pretty old and rickety.)

women60banana

Yeah, everyone on their MySpace is all, "Umm whoze Cheap Trick lolz??/"

We should launch a music education campaign.

I still think people not knowing who (note: NOT if they've listened to them or not. Just know WHO THEY ARE) Queen/Led Zeppelin/Operation Ivy/the Who/the Doors are.

QueenofthePosers

Cheap Trick?! I didn't even know they were still touring. That's kinda cool. I wish it was them instead of Death Cab in New Orleans, but I guess I'll just have to stalk Ok Go during DC.

I've always wanted to listen to some Op Ivy but I've never gotten around to it. My classic rock education was sadly neglected, though I do know that Pink Floyd bores me to tears, possibly because I've never tripped on acid then listened to them.

If you can't say what you have to say in less than five minutes, I don't want to hear about it....

I can only listen to them for small periods at a time. I really listen to them for influence sake; when listening to them, it becomes INCREDIBLY obvious that they are where many modern punk/"punk" bands draw their influence from (side note: I tried for about 2 minutes to reword it so that the sentence did not end with a preposition. Then I gave up. So, I'm a grammar geek, but just a really lazy one?). I would listen to "Room without Windows" or "Jaded" or "Junkie's Running Dry." It gets a bit tedious (though using "tedious" to describe a punk album may nto be the best word choice) and repeditive, but it is pretty damn good.

I know it's stupid and somewhat music elitist, but I HATE it when people miscategorize "punk." I hate categorizing bands to begin with but COME ON. Good Charlotte: not punk. current Green Day: not punk. Operative Ivy: Punk. The Clash (<3 <3 <3): punk

My jaw always drops when someone doesn't know who any of these bands are. Especially if they claim if they're really into music.

I think that's a marvelous idea.

women60banana

It's not a band or anything, but in art class today my friend accidently glued the wrong side of something so the teacher laughed and was like, "Somebody's going to Harvard!" and this girl was like "..what's Harvard?"

HOW HAS SHE NEVER HEARD OF HARVARD

tree21alley

Sigh. What's with the hatin' on Iowa?


My sister lives in Ann Arbor though, so I e-mailed her urging her to go to the free show so I can live vicariously.

The Avalon isn't too big, but I think it's the biggest venue they've played in Boston. I believe I'll be skipping the show, as lots of young kids always get in (whether its 18+ or not) and then they mosh and crowd surf and ruin the show.
