Holy Ghost! KILLED it last night at the Troubadour. The new stuff sounded pretty good, and they started out the set with Dumb Disco Ideas, which is just such an awesome song. True, it sounds a lot...
They released more $80 tickets yesterday.
Thanks mag, your videos are always outstanding. :pulse
Yea, I think they would make the most sense.
That's blatantly false. The Beatles have 250 million certified album sales, he has 130. And The Beatles probably sold far more, they claim 1 billion, because not all countries recorded sales back...
You're not supposed to tell people yet.....
Look on the bright side, nothing can ever be harder than Sigur Rós last year.
Yea I noticed that too. Wouldn't let me even try to buy tickets from 10-10:10 when I stopped trying. I think there was a glitch in TMs system that prevented them from going on sale at the right time....
My dads a big Tom Petty fan and really wants to go. Im seeing her at the Palladium, so that partly makes up for it. I thought about it for a while and Petty is way older so ill have less...
Going to the Tom Petty show now so I can't make the Bjork Hollywood Bowl show.
2 Garden Box tickets, 145 each (under face value). Let me know if you want them.
I don't think SS Coachella will return this year.
Maybe that but I think it's more expensive because they're playing at a much smaller venue than normal.
They're also selling (a limited amount of) 1 day tickets starting tomorrow....idk why anyone would buy a 2 day ticket and only go one day.
Haha fair enough, might wanna try spray sunscreen...
Well not really, it should be able to be sold just as easily. It probably allows for one scan Saturday and one scan Sunday.
Wtf....was that a joke or are you a bigot?
So do you guys think it will be an online sale or in person at the Fonda sale? I'm in something I absolutely can't get out of tomorrow at 8...won't be done till 3. I can have a friend get me a ticket...
I expect a mass exodus from the stage/tent after they start like Animal Collective a few years ago.
They (finally) BNTed a song from Trouble Will Find Me

Help me out here. I love GY!BE so much....but i'm in St. Louis during all of the shows....I already bought tickets though because I couldn't resist.
I just can't imagine they'll play the midwest...
I really hope we don't get Mumford....
David Byrne and St. Vincent
August 18
Harpa
Reykjavík, Iceland
So by your logic this is relevant too since it IS an upcoming show
Come on now, let's not post single insignificant dates for a mediocre band in a city other than Los Angeles....
Wilco isn't big enough to headline. Don't get me wrong, they're one of my favorite bands, but they are a 2nd line act for eternity.
Sufjan would be amazing, but he doesn't like playing festivals...
Wowzers this tour of theirs is relentless. I guess the Valtari tour and Kveikur tour are sort of blending together. I hope they're not too burned out after the tour ends.
Is this a prediction?
Saw em at the El Rey this past weekend. Quite enjoyable. His voice sounds phenomenal live, and that's with no backing vocal track, which I know because he screwed up the lyrics once and started...
They said in an interview that the last tour was so demanding physically, emotionally, logistically, etc. And it took them over a year to break even money wise. They just want to do something a...
Ugh. Makes sense but I hope not.
Not caring at all about the headliners is silly, but caring so much that they make or break a festival on their own is stupid.
When i'm deciding what festivals to go to I weigh headliners more than...
Scored tickets to NMH in St. Louis and Urbana!
Also got some National tix in my cart but had to let them go....can't commit until I know who is headlining Sunday of OSL (not gonna miss NIN or...
I confirmed them a couple pages back. They will be be there headlining.
Not necessarily defending this guy, but you think Amon Tobin and FlyLo are both crap?
Yup, and the email I just got from B&S says these dates round out their Notrth American tour. Such a weird NA schedule, but I guess it's just small and sporadic because they're not touring a new...
Joking and sarcasm aside how hard was it to get tickets for the national. I was busy this morning but ill be trying on Friday.
I've heard all of Modern Vampires and all but 2 tracks of Trouble. And these aren't my scores they're what I'm guessing bitchfork will give them.
Predictions
Modern Vampires of the City - 8.9 BNM
Trouble Will Find Me - 9.1 BNM
As a new STL transplant this makes me so happy. Definitely making this show. Do you know if there's decent public transportation from St. Louis to Columbia?
The two highest billed bands on that list would be Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Grizzly Bear, and then I imagine maybe Deerhunter. Local Natives is not headlining under any circumstance.
I didn't listen to them because i'm waiting for the whole album. But yes, I know two songs leaked. The whole album did not leak, and that's clearly what you implied.
On Atease? That's a fake from what I've heard
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say they are more popular/well known with the average American than The Stones Roses. Everyone knows All The Young Dudes at the very least.
I support. And if they want...
If Chili Peppers play Sunday at OSL I'm gonna leave early and catch the national at Hollywood Forever.
Radio City Music Hall? LOL
If you're gonna make fake DP dates at least make the venues and cities more plausible.
I hope Beck plays a solo acoustic show in LA before hitting up the Rio Theater in Santa Cruz to play an acoustic show on May 19th.
I've seen Beck plenty of times but the thought of seeing him play...
Lol right. So random

Google says the average walking speed means a 20 minute mile, so .6 would be 12 minutes. I tend to avoid the Sahara like the plague, but at a true walking speed that sounds about right from the times...
And I remember trying for 45 minutes and not being able to get a ticket....
So no, not an exaggeration at all.

Yea true. Just weird that ill be seeing them headline glastonbury in a few months and yet in the US they can't sell out a venue smaller than the Fonda. It's interesting how cultural boundaries around...
