[stinkbutt]

Booker T doesn't even play guitar

[Ardentbiscuit]

I need to find a way to Australia! Sorry if this is a repost!

[SoulDischarge]

I wouldn't go across town for that.

[Riggins33]

If you wouldn't go across town for that then you are a retard. I wouldn't go to Australia, but I would if it was a couple hours away. Do you like music Mr. Discharge?

[TallGuyCM]

It just so turns out that The Joy Formidable are every bit as incredible live as you guys have been saying for a long time. Who knew?

[Spooks]

Booker T doesn't even play guitar

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

It just so turns out that The Joy Formidable are every bit as incredible live as you guys have been saying for a long time. Who knew?

Yeah, absolutely stunning show last night, and LOUD AS FUCK. Can't wait for them to come back!

[TheClaw]

It just so turns out that The Joy Formidable are every bit as incredible live as you guys have been saying for a long time. Who knew?

Such a great show! So glad I had my earplugs because, damn it was loud.

[brokenDREAMS]

The Joy Formidable were loud when they played the Mayan earlier this year with APTBS. Good to see everyone had a Great time! The Troubadour is such a tiny place for that big rock sound they have.

[getbetter]

Did they have the same production set up as the mayan show , Joe?

[brokenDREAMS]

Zach, I didn't go to the show last night. I don't think they could fit that light house they had at the Mayan show at the troub.

[TallGuyCM]

Yeah, no big production last night.

[TallGuyCM]

Oh, and toward the end of the show last night Ritzy mentioned that the band would be back in the area again in April...so, there's that.

UR1 Festival Postponement Announcement

It is with deep regret that we announce the postponement of the first annual UR1 Music & Art Festival due to circumstances beyond our control, including:

- Foreseeable inclement weather conditions in the Miami-Dade and South Florida region;
- Continued effects of the recent Hurricane Sandy.

In consideration of these and other factors including the safety and wellbeing of our fans and performing artists we have come to this tough decision. Understandably this has had an ancillary effect on ticket sales and business logistics. It has always been our mission to produce events of the utmost quality and safety.

The new dates for the UR1 Music & Art Festival will be announced shortly. New dates will be chosen when weather conditions satisfy the safety of our fans, artists and staff. Once the dates are released you may chose to retain your ticket, as we will accept it at the festival. Alternatively should you choose to be refunded, information and instructions on how to do so can be found at www.ur1festival.com/tickets. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

We would also like to inform you that we are making every effort to showcase some of the talent that was scheduled to perform and exhibit at the festival in various locations around Miami. For those of you who would like to join us and the talent that will continue on to be showcased pending forthcoming dates to be announced, UR1 Ticket holders will have the opportunity to use their festival ticket at events around Miami during Basel week. A list of events accepting UR1 Tickets & Vouchers will soon be listed at www.ur1festival.com

Sincerely,

The UR1 Music & Art Festival Family

This can only mean one thing

METZ

Tour is over for now. Next week we have some new shows to announce in London and New York. Keep your eyes here for those. Thanks for coming out to see us in your city. We will be back soon.

WHAT.ARE.YOU.SAYING

[suprefan]

THEYRE GOING TO PLAY IN LONDON AND NEW YORK!

[fudgumslover]

I saw Metz at the Knitting Factory Brooklyn a couple days ago and I loved it. The only problem was that it was so fucking short at just barely 35 minutes. Hopefully they write some new material soon so they have some more songs to play at their gigs.

[Cookieman908]

Wha? I hope Spooks is not trying to suggest Metz are likely for Coachella because they've announced they'll be playing London and NY shows (!) I'll give him the benefit of the doubt

[Spooks]

Wha? I hope Spooks is not trying to suggest Metz are likely for Coachella because they've announced they'll be playing London and NY shows (!) I'll give him the benefit of the doubt

hahaha and yes they're opening for the Rolling Stones in London & NY!
