I'll be on my way to Sasquatch so I'll miss this one.

Me too. Oh well, glad I saw them at Crescent. Hopefully I get to see M83 at Coachella too.

[westcoastpirate]

The show at the Crescent was awesome and I would love to see them again if I was going to be in town.

[westcoastpirate]

Oh yeah, the Crescent Ballroom is also open for lunch now.

[HotHamWater]

Who's going to the Portugal. The Man show on Friday? I'll be there, with a couple of highly-respected Phoenicians in tow.

Sweet. that opens up any conflicts that she may have @ Coachella.

I leave for Sasquatch on Thursday, so I am totally checking out M83 that Wednesday.

[TomAz]

I know this is a huge deal and probably deserves its own thread, but I'll put it in here for now.

Jen & I are going. Maybe we'll see you there?

[amyzzz]

I'll be there. I'll finally get to check out this venue y'all have been raving about.

[Somewhat Damaged]

Glad you made it out, Amy. What did you think of the Crescent?

[amyzzz]

I liked it. Nice size and the sound seemed really clear, as Tommy said. Thanks for buying my coke, Rick!

[Somewhat Damaged]

You're welcome.

[amyzzz]

The M83 show is canceled due to schedule conflicts per Stateside Facebook post. BOO!

[Somewhat Damaged]

Sucks for those who were gonna attend, although at least it's better you found out now as opposed to next Monday after you had skipped them at Coachella because you were planning to see them in Phoenix.

[amyzzz]

Glass half full. I was thinking about skipping them at Coach if need be.

[insbordnat]

Shitty. Oh well.

[venturas90sgirl]

Boo. Hope they're issuing refunds. Jason and I had tickets to that.

[faxman75]

They should have just moved it back to the Crescent damn it.

[Gribbz]

They should have just moved it back to the Crescent damn it.

The Crescent show should have been at the Marquee honestly. I'm surprised they got M83 to play at such a small venue.

I don't know how they did it either, but I sure am glad they did because that concert was awesome, and it was an excellent introduction to the Crescent Ballroom.

[amyzzz]

They should have just moved it back to the Crescent damn it.

They cancelled in New Mexico too, so it was M83's schedule conflict, not the Marquee's.

[nyarlathotoats]

Neon Indian tonight at the Crescent. First time checking the venue out, so it should be good fun.

[westcoastpirate]

It's a great venue, see you there.

[Douchey.McDouche.Douche.]

pretty much the southwest leg of the tour was cancelled, phoenix, new mexico, and las vegas.. bummer.
