Upcoming Shows

I know none of you give any fucks, but Say Anything had the best crowd of any the 100+ concerts I've been to. They took the band to a level I doubt they've ever been to before.

[suprefan]

I'll say this, theyve probably been there, way before you even knew who they were.

[cutterbutter]

Ive been listening to and seeing them since Is A Real Boy came out. I can't imagine their Baseball days were huge for them like that but I'll have to ask Tessa. Max being sober now and in a better place mentally has definitely changed the band.

O wait, you don't actually give a fuck you pompous ass. I'm ecstatic that we are both awake at this hour to have such an exchange. It's already made my day.

[Phantasma Del Mar]

I'm not a big fan of their new albums but I see that they're still playing Belt and Admit It, so that's kinda tempting.

[cutterbutter]

Yeah 9 out of 20 songs being Is/Was a real boy and the early EPs is pretty damn good for them just putting out their 4th album. Admit it>Admit it Again was a pretty awesome way to end a show.

I can't figure which ticketing system is shittier, Front Gate tickets that Coachella uses or Brown Paper tickets that the AV club uses.

I guess it boils down to, free or cheap or costly, all ticketing systems suck.

I've seen them only once, right after In Defense Of The Genre came out, with manchester Orchestra opening, and it was a crazy fun, super sing along show. Really good. i am liking the new album quite a bit too, even if it is really samey now

Don't worry, I also got shut out of AV Club with multiple browsers...

Same thing happened to me with the Murphy onsale a few days ago, and I'm still bitter about it.

Cut Chemist will be closing out the First Friday Series at the Los Angeles Natural History Musuem. 6/1/12

[rag and bone]

I may go fucking nuts.

What are the other options?

[brokenDREAMS]

I was able to get into Transmission LA last night from the standby "GA" line. Arrived around 7:45 and got in the museum about 50 minutes later.

God fucking damnit. Another awesome thing happening when I'm at my brother's wedding up north.

You shoulda rolled out last night. Went right at 9 and there was zero line standby, willcall, etc.

Gary Clark jr. added to UCLA Jam Day!!

[frizzlefry]

So does the Greek Theatre LA have a first come first serve policy for the pit like most venues or is that like a VIP ticket or something?

[TheClaw]

On the same day as the Roots. Hmmm. I might just have to go to that.

[tmac]

did not know this. this just made my day.

[cutterbutter]

Yeah I think sometime during the 3rd album recording/tour he got off anti-depressents and went clean. Since he got married he's even been pretty open about his new found religious life which I guess has helped him most. You can hear a lot of those themes on the 4th record. It's great to see the change in his live performances. I remember he use to last out at fans that heckled him and was very standoffish on stage.

[tmac]

i've had tix to more than 1 say anything show that was cancelled cause he couldn't pull it together. glad he is healthy and happy now

[Sushov23]

A show with the Roots, Gary Clark Jr, Bobby Womack? seems like a great a great way to spend a day. How is that festival?

[Newro7ic]

So does the Greek Theatre LA have a first come first serve policy for the pit like most venues or is that like a VIP ticket or something?

Most of the time they go on sale with the rest of the tickets. It has been awhile since I've been, but that's how I remember it.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

No, it's just a regular ticket. Sometimes the pit is seated. i know of no aseated theater that has first-come first-serve pit areas (save for GA places that happen to have seated balcony)

[IceyHotshot]

I was in the pit at the Greek last year for Beirut and Drinkey is right. The pit is really small, but if you really want to be on the rail, just show up around when doors open. Assuming you have a pit ticket that is...

[frizzlefry]

Lame

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

It's an orchestra pit for a 6000 seat theater. The logistics for what you want are not there. It's not a rock concert venue.
