will that be enough time to scrape together the insane $110 - $175 per pair that they're asking?
(anyone want to split that mandatory pair?)

Last years was better with weezer when it was put on by IMP but they ended up suing the university and lost
Wait, what lawsuit? Explain?
IMP sued the university for a few thousand dollars asking for more money from tickets that did not exist. IMP funded the performers(weezer and ben folds) and UMD's Student Entertainment Events(SEE) funded the rest and the revenue from ticket sales was to go to IMP as they were promoting the show for Maryland. All I know is IMP did not win the lawsuit and now maryland has a shitty art attack that is poorly promoted and headlined by nelly
we didn't sue anybody
they deducted a bunch of charges from our settlement that we didn't agree with, and we had lawyers look into it
that's about it

Clavius Productions and Capital Bop present a very special show at the Red Door on Sunday, featuring Rob Mazurek's (Isotope 217/Chicago Underground Duo/Mandarin Movie/Exploding Star Orchestra) new ensemble, Starlicker Trio, with drummer John Herndon of post-rock legends Tortoise and vibraphone upstart Jason Adasiewicz. And OOO (Luke Stewart/Aaron Martin/Sam Lohman) will be augmented by Scott Verrastro on percussion and Mike Sebastian on tenor sax. Info below. Clavius Productions is also presenting D Charles Speer & The Helix, whose recent recordings for Thrill Jockey show a band as adept as any at recreating the classic early '70s Muscle Shoals southern soul-rock sound injected with a healthy dose of The Band and '71 Stones. Fuck the Black Crowes, these guys are the real deal. Also on the horizon, Kohoutek/Sediment Club at Amma House on June 5 and Bobb Trimble/Kuschty Rye Ergot on June 17.

"A rockin' slab of cosmic country boogie that makes Commander Cody sound like Brad Paisley. It's dense, fuzzy, and dripping in an ominously psychedelic reverb." (Village Voice)
"Folk, Country and Rockabilly wells mined and harnessed to yield Some Forgotten Country, an album of home-recordings as metaphysical western, a handful of cover tunes as respectful homage, songs as well-oiled chants." (Stylus)
"Shuford's romps channel both dusty open spaces and cramped dim places, scars and bars from the Deep South and Old West." (Dusted)

"Zachary Cale is a songwriter's songwriter, as prolific as he is original. His voice can be delicate for love or wry for satire. The ability to hear what is in a song has guided him well in the making of his own." -John Allen (WFMU)
?New York transplant Zachary Cale?s folk sound is as beautifully raw as they come. Local audiences enjoy quietly reflective ballads from this shaggy haired musician. His unusual voice and poetic songwriting are pleasantly welcomed surprises.? -NYC?s BEST LOCAL MUSICIANS Bea Broderick (CBS NY)

I put this under the NY just announced, but think its warrants a mention here too.
I highly recommend the Guitar Heroes exhibition at the Met if you haven't seen it already. Just saw it today (as well as the Alexander McQueen exhibit).
Highly recommend (both).
