Upcoming Shows

[MarkO]

KEXP 90.3 fm

Legit.

About the only redeeming thing about driving to Seattle is getting to the SeaTac area and tuning kexp in on the car radio. Kevin Cole ftw.

[PassiveTheory]

Fixed. Might as well forget about Grand Ole' Party once that Dum Dum Girls really gets rolling.

I really hate the new name, and I'm sorely going to miss that band. One of the only musical projects out of San Diego that I ever felt proud of.

[AlecEiffel]

I don't know if they are officially broken up, I just think Dum Dum Girls is going to completely eclipse them and take up all her time.

[WhyTheLongFace]

Does anyone think the Live Nation Club Passport is worth it A lot of shows are excluded but i still see like 2-3 shows I want

[PJandBompton]

I don't know if they are officially broken up, I just think Dum Dum Girls is going to completely eclipse them and take up all her time.

They are officially broken up.

And yes, getting Jet is not impressive. have they ever even played a Jet song?

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

NPR has no commercials.

you still have to listen to promo, station ID, and underwriter breaks every 15 or 20 minutes though...and the VO people that do those for NPR are HORRIBLY boring and monotone

EDIT: don't get me wrong though, i love NPR. KCRW, one of the L.A. NPR affiliates is by far the best radio station here. plus we have henry rollins on saturday nights! i loved his show when it was on Indie.

Does anyone listen to KXLU anymore? I was addicted, but it's almost impossible to get besides streaming online now because there's a Christian station that impedes on the signal here in the 'Valley

[Ardentbiscuit]

NPR has no commercials.

Except when they have the week long beg-a-thons.

[DRcube]

Except when they have the week long beg-a-thons.

isnt that just twice a year though? everyone needs to get paid

[pancakespancakes]

Thus far I prefer Dum Dum Girls. But that's just me.

[bleep]

the reception is clear in the westside areas like West LA, Culver City and even Malibu. it is only when i head towards downtown LA that it starts to blend w/ the Christian station.

[AlecEiffel]

Thus far I prefer Dum Dum Girls. But that's just me.

me too.

[Ardentbiscuit]

isnt that just twice a year though? everyone needs to get paid

Yes, it's 11 days twice a year, so that 22 fun filled days.

I know it doesn't sound like a lot but when you always subscribe like me it's aggravating during those 22 days.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

I worked for an NPR-affiliate (89.3 KPCC) and the pledge drives were fucking chaotic as all hell inside the station when they were going on. it's incredible how much money it costs to run a radio station though

[Sexecutioner]

I'm just surprised that anybody even listens to the radio anymore, let alone has a favorite station.

You guys do realize that technology has cured us from ever having to be force fed someone else's choice of music intermixed with inane commercials, right?

while i agree with you and listen to my ipod about 70% of the time, i still turn on the radio every now and then to see if theres anything new i havent heard yet. sure, this board and other places on the net are better ways of getting turned on to new music, but i really dont have the time or motivation to go check out every band mentioned on here. no offense, but alot of you people have real shitty taste. it doesnt happen often, but every now and then i here something new that i like on 94.9. like black joe lewis for instance. i had heard their name on here, but never got around to checking them out. i heard them on 949 one day and was instantly impressed and went and got their album. most of the time though i turn it on, am annoyed to hear the same fuckin silversun pickups song, so go back to my ipod.

[Alligator Bogaloo]

KEXP 90.3 fm

Legit.

Best station ever... I listen to it through itunes.

[tessalasset]

i've found some good rihanna jams on the radio that i'd never heard before. beyonce too.

[AlecEiffel]

combining the current discussion with the actual point of this thread, 92.3, the new alternative station in the bay area (actually Channel 104.9 moved to a more powerful frequency) is putting on a Passion Pit show at the Blank Club in San Jose for $9.23 on 10/12.

[BlackSwan]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

WhyTheLongFace i know you've said it before but are you daprescription on NT?

[PJandBompton]

And FUCK these shows are gonna be expensive...

[paulb]

http://i33.tinypic.com/34zdpwo.png

thats a fuckin joke....what do u get with VIP tix?

[Ardentbiscuit]

http://i33.tinypic.com/34zdpwo.png

I just don't foresee Kanye and Lady Gaga giving me even close to 1000 bucks worth of entertainment.

[WhyTheLongFace]

WhyTheLongFace i know you've said it before but are you daprescription on NT?

Nah I'm SHWAP just brought that picture over

[luckyface]

thats a fuckin joke....what do u get with VIP tix?

Your choice of a teabag from either Kanye or Lady Gaga.

[WhyTheLongFace]

I don't have the money for this show.
If I did have the money for this show I wouldn't spend it.
I thought $70 would give me good seats. I was mistaken.

So now I have to succumb to listening to KISS FM & Power 106 for a month straight in an attempt to win tickets. Thanks Kanye & Gaga.

[BlackSwan]

That is such a huge waste of money. I saw Lady Gaga for free around a year ago.

[Ardentbiscuit]

Your choice of a teabag from either Kanye or Lady Gaga.

Better yet, you find out the truth about Lady Gaga and then Kanye admits he likes fish sticks.

[PJandBompton]

The only way I could justify paying that much for VIP is if Kanye played his entire catalog...but this pretty much fucking sucks knowing songs i saw him play in 05 will never have a chance of being played again...

Kanye for $40 w/ a string section playing LR and CD material at RIMAC Arena>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Kanye for $140 playing 808's material w/ Lady Gaga at the damn Sports Arena...

[JustSteve]

thats a fuckin joke....what do u get with VIP tix?

for that price you should be able to walk onstage at an inappropriate/undisclosed time to grab the mic and start your sentence with "I'mma let you finish..."

[WhyTheLongFace]

for that price you should be able to walk onstage at an inappropriate/undisclosed time to grab the mic and start your sentence with "I'mma let you finish..."

I thought that price was for the VIP area but its not even you get this section (red dot)
http://i37.tinypic.com/35i7w55.jpg

[JustSteve]

wow, didn't think i could lose even more respect for the guy...but that is just ludicrous, there is NO excuse for that price.

edit: from ticketmaster...

"Fame Kills GA VIP Package
Get exclusive access to a general admission standing VIP area located on the floor, a personal concierge to meet you outside the venue and escort you through security to the exclusive Fame Kills Zone, private bar service (where available, most venues), official commemorative VIP laminate and a special gift bag. Package ticket limit is four."

maybe you get a seat plus access to the vip area, in case you want to sit down? no way a reserved seat can be $500.

just tried for anaheim and it gave me a section/row number, too. must be a glitch.

[AlecEiffel]

I thought that price was for the VIP area but its not even you get this section (red dot)
http://i37.tinypic.com/35i7w55.jpg

but VIP is only three dollars more for some reason. This whole thing is obscene.

[dorkfish]

The Antlers are playing a one-off show in Los Angeles on October 29th @ The Bootleg Theater before they head off to open for Minus the Bear's tour.

[PJandBompton]

Nah I'm SHWAP just brought that picture over

ahhhhh knew there was a similarity...the electro and everything got it now haha

[AlecEiffel]

[suprefan]

How much are VIP tickets to that?

Kanye? $500. Or $125, $99, $69, and $39 for everything else.

[suprefan]

I thought that price was for the VIP area but its not even you get this section (red dot)
http://i37.tinypic.com/35i7w55.jpg

It is for both, its just they sold the GA ones already. They obviously want to sell those seats right there for this amount cause they figure somebody will pay the money. Im still considering what to do Thursday.

[dorkfish]

Can we ban the Kanye/Gaga tour talk from this thread? I'm sure there's a good Kanye/Gaga thread to use to avoid polluting this with overly obvious dreck.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

no LA usually means Coachella no?

these dates are in december, so in this case...no

[softbulletin]

I'm really liking that Metric tour opener about 20 minutes from my house. I'm glad I didn't buy tickets for Toronto now.

[BlackSwan]

What the fuck...?

Hammer
Whodini
Friday, September 25th
Fox Theatre

Yes, MC Hammer.

[suprefan]

no LA usually means Coachella no?

[dorkfish]

What the fuck...?

Hammer
Whodini
Friday, September 25th
Fox Theatre

Yes, MC Hammer.
Local hero

[dorkfish]

and that Hammer show is not selling well

[dorkfish]

Independent / San Francisco shows:

Nov 10: Saul Williams
Nov 19: Warren G

[Alchemy]

I'm going to buy a ticket this Friday for Fiery Furnaces in December. Woohoo!

[BlackSwan]

and that Hammer show is not selling well

I'm not really all that surprised. I understand the local hero thing... But headlining the Fox? Really?

[suprefan]

AFI @ The Roxy September 29th....

[TallGuyCM]

AFI @ The Roxy September 29th....

NO WAY. That's gonna be impossible to get into.

[boarderwoozel3]

Ya know, people outside of LA use this board... not that I have any interest in an AFI tour, just saying.

[paulb]

AFI @ The Roxy September 29th....

u going?

[suprefan]

u going?

Cant get in, you cant either.

[paulb]

lol....OH NO!!!!!!!

[suprefan]

NO WAY. That's gonna be impossible to get into.

KROQ only winners..

[BlueDevil50]

Bummer, I can't wait to go to another AFI show. Always have fun at their concerts.

[JustSteve]

KROQ only winners..

there are ways.

[suprefan]

there are ways.

Yep I am sure, and for the other 2 there could be.

Alice in Chains @ The Whiskey Sept 29th
Paramore @ The Troubadour Sept 29th

[PassiveTheory]

First reaction: Oh badass. I might have to go to this.

Second reaction (after finding out via Google that it's a club-club): ...-sigh- 6 months cannot go by faster.

[Boourns]

None around LA, but more Metric dates!!!

From spin.com:

http://www.spin.com/articles/metric-map-us-tour-dates

Bummer. Oh well, I did see them twice this year.

[woogie846]

Pixies added another another date at the Palladium for November 6th.

[suprefan]

Figures, WHY ON THAT DAY!!!?

[Still-ill]

Figures, WHY ON THAT DAY!!!?

We all know exactly what you're talking about.

[AlecEiffel]

Kanye? $500. Or $125, $99, $69, and $39 for everything else.

No, I was trying to make a joke about the Antlers show, but I didn't quote the post I was r referring to and someone else posted in between so it was blown. Thanks anyway, though.

[dorkfish]

Antlers show should be good. Bootleg Theater barely fits 200 people. Tickets are $12 + ~$3 for "save the trees donation" and fees.

[bmack86]

I think I'm going to go. The Bootleg theater is really really close to my apartment.

[dorkfish]

You should go. And then you can definitively decide your feelings about their music.

[sonofhal]

Yes, Bryan. Sort out your major taste malfunction pronto!

[airguitarvet]

cold boogers on a paper cup

[TallGuyCM]

Yes, Bryan. Sort out your major taste malfunction pronto!

Your new avatar has a 90% chance of giving Randy a seizure. Don't say I didn't warn you.

[bmack86]

It's a definite plus that the theater is a 5 minute walk from my place. That's a convincing factor.

[sonofhal]

Your new avatar has a 90% chance of giving Randy a seizure. Don't say I didn't warn you.

They are not secret plans if you tell everyone.

[bmack86]

Fuck it. I just bought tickets.

I put in Frenchies and that works too!

PJ night 2 (Seattle) :D


Night 2 >>>>>> Night 1 Yessir! I had Ten club tickets in the back right portion of the floor but never saw my assigned seats, haha. I was about five seats to the right of the center of the floor the entire time. Wow. Tonight was definitlely much heavier than last night. 'Go' live is something to behold. It kinda sorta tore the roof off Key Arena. Wasn't fimiliar with the uber rare song but it sounded great--as did everything from my locale. Eddie introduced it like, "For a while now people have said we should play this one song and we always said, 'NO fucking WAY man' but we're going to play it for you tonight." I like! Very pleased to have heard a sizzling rendition of 'Why Go' but way more so than last night 'Got Some' was absolutely wicked tonight!!! I don't know if it was my location or the band was a little more comfortable with the song but they killed it. Certainly one of the Backspacer tracks that's going to stick around for a while. (No W.M.A. though :( )

The poster tonight was too splendifourous to pass on. I mean look at it!!! :thu

Yessssssssss!

Ok, more details later. I'm off to a bar (surprise, surprise)

[SoulDischarge]

Motherfucker. I haven't bought tickets in advance for a non-festival show in over a year and completely fucking forgot how terrible Ticketmaster's fuck you charges are. I was looking up Butthole Surfers tickets and it ended up being $30 for a $20 ticket, and that's with free will call. Just to check, there's not a way to avoid that except actually going to the venue, right?

[SoulDischarge]

Also, what the fuck? I can't order tickets to multiple shows at the same time? What total pricks.

[shakermaker113]

souldischarge must be suffering from a case of amnesia.

[eudaemonia]

Just to check, there's not a way to avoid that except actually going to the venue, right?

Sometimes I go to a local retail outlet (http://www.ticketmaster.com/h/stateselecttcenters.html?tm_link=tm_ql_3), but I only saved a couple of bucks. For example, the Sounds @ HOB San Diego ended up costing $30.25 instead of the $32.75 if I bought it online. Also if it's time-sensitive (as in, going to sell out in a few minutes), you better hope the person working the ticket sales knows what they're doing -- a lot of the time they need specific event info, then they search and it's a bit of waiting.

[SoulDischarge]

I haven't used Ticketmaster, except for Coachella, which I didn't pay for, in like 2 years. I knew it was bad, but jesus, come on. Venues who use Ticketmaster are basically giving out huge fuck yous to their customers. I might try the retail thing if there's even still one around.

[PassiveTheory]

Venues who use Ticketmaster are basically giving out huge fuck yous to their customers.

Yeah, but what's the alternative? If you're not with Live Nation and you're a performance venue looking to have bands play your venues, good fucking luck.

[rage patton]

Motherfucker. I haven't bought tickets in advance for a non-festival show in over a year and completely fucking forgot how terrible Ticketmaster's fuck you charges are.

My Butthole Surfers ticket was $30 before charges and ended up being $41.50 after. Yup.

On Sale:
September 23 @ 5 pm

Enter promotional code "houghton" when prompted


BOB DYLAN is coming to The Moore Theatre. That's right: The Moore Theatre! This is pretty special. You know what else is special? The fact that the ONLY people who know about this are STG eNews members and Bob Dylan's fan club members.

Enjoy :)

[brokenDREAMS]

Not sure if anyone mentioned the We The People festival happening in downtown LA this November 11. The festival website confirmed flobots and crown city rockers and just found out (here (http://www.stonesthrow.com/news/2009/09/all-caps)) that MADVILLAIN we be there as well. No info on ticket on-sale date yet...

[pancakespancakes]

Saw Mount Eerie last night and it was just awesome. So much newfound appreciation for that album after seeing the live version in a very intimate setting. Tiny crowd, must have been about forty people there, maybe less. It was really great though, everyone sat down for most of the show, and stood up at the end. Played mostly songs from the new album and I believe a couple from Lost Wisdom, and it was a 6-person band for the whole show. It was quite loud.

[pancakespancakes]

It also looks like I will be attending the Treasure Island festival in San Fran in a few weeks, which would change my upcoming shows quite a bit. We have a thread for that though. But I am super excited...

the road trip to San Diego to see Flogging Molly worked great. 2 hours from Santa Monica to San Diego. Ate an amazing burrito, dry heaved in a bathroom at an ESPN zone from mixing Coronas and Horchata and caught the best live band in a 1,000 capacity club. So glad I did this instead of the Greek.

Saw 3 cat fights, pretty crazy pit and the greatest security guard ever, literally singing along to every song and giving water to people in the front. Dave gave him a shout out.

Great great show. Again, if you have never seen Flogging Molly you are missing out. I think this was number 11 for me. wow

great openers too. Fitz and the Tantrums and Hepcat were both great, better than most FM openers.
got back at 3:30 in the morning bruised and battered. great time

[JorgeC]

great openers too. Fitz and the Tantrums and Hepcat were both great, better than most FM openers.

sounds like you had a great time, that's cool and HOB SD > Greek is great for any band.

[Sushov23]

I don't know that I can bring myself to pay over 100 again for Kanye. Atleast last time I got Lupe Fiasco/NERD/Rihanna out of the deal, so it was more then worth it with them included on the bill. Lady Gaga????? hahahaha.

[suprefan]

Yeah, somethigns gonna have to happen next week cause its all the midwest where you know those taylor swift lovers are from.

The $99 seats suck btw.. you would have to for sure get floor or a lower level ticket to have a good time. Laddy Gaga puts on a show like Madonna, but better. Cant blame him for grabbing one of the hottest pop acts right now. And Lady Gaga Sahara 2010..... ;)

[Sushov23]

I know I pulled floor for all the shows(Staples, Sports Arena, and Honda Center), i'm just not sure how badly I really want to go. I did buy two for staples though, I know if I decide to not go I can sell them no problem like I did with the NOKIA theater PIT tickets last April.

[suprefan]

Probably not mr PIT. Just like those magical NIN pit tix you had?

[Sushov23]

JAY-Z is undeniably one of the most powerful voices in music today, a multiple Grammy Award winner and an influencer that has resonated with a generation of music fans. He has now added a Los Angeles date to his eagerly-awaited fall tour, a mix of college campus arenas and traditional venues across North America. Jay-Z will now perform at Pauley Pavilion on Sunday, November 8. Tickets go on sale Saturday, October 3 at 10 AM.

Jay-Z’s highly-anticipated new album, The Blueprint 3, was released on September 8. Entertainment Weekly says, “Blueprint is hip-hop as big business, and Jay retains his CEO throne.“

The fall tour is the follow-up to the historic “Mary J. Blige & Jay-Z: Heart of the City” tour where they performed for more than 600,000 fans and received rave reviews at every stop. The 28 date trek grossed more than $35 million.

[fikus222]

So the Ghostly International 10 Year Anniversary Show at the Seattle Art Museum was really good last night. Unfortunately due to our time crunch, the only full set we were able to see was Tycho's (which was great BTW), but we were able to see every performer, all of which were very good.

After checking everybody out at SAM, we headed over to the Kid Koala Slew Tour show at the Nectar Lounge. We got there for the opening act, whose name escapes me right now, but they consisted of a turntablist and a guy on keys/vocals/guitar. They were very cool and the vocalist looked a lot like Mos Def. The second act was Adira Amram, whose on stage performance was a complete and utter surprise. Think Peaches mixed in with some Lords of Acid and then sprinkled with some Santogold, it was a hilariously good time. Next came the Slew, it was Kid Koala on 3 tables, with another cat on 3 tables and then the ex-rhythm section from Wolfmother (a bass guitarist/keyboardist and also a drummer). They put on a very good show and played every song from their album. we especially enjoyed the slower songs, as they were more melodic and the 'band' tended to jam/build them up nicely. Good times were had.

One side note, apparently yesterday afternoon US CBP Officers detained the tour bus at the Washington/Canadian border for several hours. I guess CBP wasn't going to allow Kid Koala into the country for some reason or another and it took them forever to get his entry approved. Adira made some funny jokes about it.

I went to Devil's Night in 07, the day before Daft at Vegoose. While it was the best costume party I've ever been to, The Crystal Method's DJ Set was absolutely atrocious. And trust me, I'm probably one of if not the biggest CM fan on the board.

What I don't get is why are they having it the weekend before Halloween? This makes no sense to me. Is it strictly because they don't want to compete with HHM and Monster Massive or what? You'd think that the Vegas crowd alone would be enough to put on something worthwhile.

bon iver was ridiculous of course tonight. all everyone talked about was the sunday show. buzzing buzzing about it. megafaun opened and were totally fun. like avett brothers lite. i guess a bunch of them used to be in a band with justin in high school. i bought their new album and i bought the volcano choir LP. good stuff. they played everything off FE,FA except for blindsided. right before they started the first song of their encore, someone yelled out for it and he laughed and said "i wish we knew how to play that." but i think he was serious. do they really not play it live? it seemed weird that they played everything except that. they also played babys which was nice. and brackett. and then the rest of the album and two songs with megafaun at the end. i ended up getting bomb ass front row balcony seats and was sitting next to sandra oh. i've never seen greys anatomy or sideways but my friend was super excited. she has a funny laugh. and someone said jonah hill and michael cera were there as well. big surprise. i was looking up comments on twitter just now and sondre lerche tweeted about being at the show so that was fun. can't wait for sunday!!!

[TallGuyCM]

i've never seen greys anatomy

Wow, you're my dream girl.

---

Rain Machine was excellent tonight at the Echo. Played for around 70 minutes which is pretty long considering they only have one album. The reviews of the album haven't been too hot, and I haven't heard it, so I went into the show a bit skeptical. But being a big fan of Kyp Malone I definitely wasn't let down.

Met Kyp afterwards and chatted for a bit, really cool guy. Dave Sitek was in the house as well, I think. Either it was Dave or some guy that wears those same exact glasses that he wears that looked just like him.

They're playing a free show at the Getty tomorrow, HIGHLY recommended if you're looking for something to do!

I once saw Extrafixion at the Viper Room. Courtney was in the audience drunk off her ass and got on stage and sang songs with Will and Ian. Not a pretty sight. They sang The Killing Moon and some other songs together.

I can only imagine what a nightmare Courtney and Slash would be.

Holy Jesus, Telefon Tel Aviv last night kicked so much ass! Excellent show! They ended up playing all of the new album, Introductory Nomenclature from Farenheit Fair Enough, an unreleased song I didn't know the name of, and then he came out for an encore of Springstein's "I'm on Fire". That is the only Springstein song I really like, and he fucking improved on that shit. Sounded so awesome. I know they are almost done with their tour, but if you have the opportunity, do not miss them!

[Westy]

I know they don't have much of a following around here, but the Manic Street Preachers show at the Avalon was incredible. One of the best shows I've been to in a long time. The crowd was good (for LA), the sound was great, setlist was awesome, and the Manics were flawless.

Tonight, Nosaj Thing was awesome, Megasoid was the perfect blend of guilty pleasure bass heavy hip-hop, Daedelus TORE the roof off and Mary Ann Hobbs was pretty cool. The only reason why we are home so early is cuz my Grandparents are in town. Oh and did I mention that Daedelus was amazing?

Now to cap the evening off, we are going to watch some 30 Rock season 3 :D

The Live Nation website continues to piss me off. I'm trying to buy tickets to the third Hollywood Palladium Pixies show but it won't let me sign in.

[Westy]

I hate the way the "Set your default location" window pops up.

I can see the Roots play their Tuesday night residency at the Highland Ballroom in NYC, or see The Manic Street Preachers play at Webster Hall on their first USA tour in 10 years the following night, but not both.

I haven't seen either band before.

Thoughts?

The Roots play every week. Do you live in NY? Go with Manic Street Preachers.

[bmack86]

I went to the Upright Citizens theater in LA tonight, and they had Omar from The Mars Volta as their guest monologist. It was a really awesome night. He told some fantastic stories that made me want to listen to their music again and really made me respect him. He seemed to genuinely enjoy talking for the crowd, and it was very intimate and impressive. I'm going to keep an eye out for the next Volta show.

[shakermaker113]

I know they don't have much of a following around here, but the Manic Street Preachers show at the Avalon was incredible. One of the best shows I've been to in a long time. The crowd was good (for LA), the sound was great, setlist was awesome, and the Manics were flawless.

the SF show was cool. though they barely filled the fillmore to 2/3 capacity. weak! I'd say that band has been forgotten in this country, but then I remember that nobody ever really knew them. still there were enough people to get cool singalongs for 'everything must go' and 'design for life'. it made me happy to finally see this band after 10 years of waiting.

Fuck, Plump DJ's at the Fox in Pomona?? Why does it have to be the same night as the Friendly Fires?? I might need to sell those and go see FF in San Diego.

And see FF at the casbah in SD.



Good find!

They announced last night that they were announcing a very popular band to play. Thats it.

I heart the Manics.

I know it has its own thread, but most of you prob don't go to it and this is pretty cool:

http://phish.com/festival8/halloween/index.html

Apparently you go to the site, a bunch of album covers scroll by and when you click the screen an axe "kills" one of them. And the last album "alive" is the one they'll play on Halloween.

Boy I am sure I would get in, but....


Loaded in. At the roxy. First 100 people to say 'Medicate' at the door get in to see AFI. Drive Safely.

[TallGuyCM]

Wow, just got my ticket as well. SCORE. Floor's all gone, but I couldn't justify paying that much anyways. I'm in 204A I think, off to the left. Fine with me.

[luckyface]

I might as well post in here too in case no one else ventures into the Pearl Jam thread. I may possibly have a fan club ticket for sale for tomorrow's LA show. I have been in the fan club for 11 years, so I have a good number which should = solid seats. I won't know until I get to the venue tomorrow. If you are interested, hit me up. Ticket will be face value of $82. Thanks.
