I like them better live than recorded. I've only seen them in teeny tiny little places, though. I'm surprised (but excited) that they're headlining the club.

Damien left the band a long time ago, before they were even Bell X1. They still play songs they wrote together as Juniper. Were you a big Juniper fan?

Apparently all of the support acts are only playing a show or two, each show doesn't have all of these.

According to ESLmusic.com, we get Ladytron and TV On The Radio. Doesn't break down the other shows.

Wish we were getting either Los Amigos Invisibles, Bebel Gilberto, Federico Aubele or Turntables On The Hudson than those two.

That said, I will still be there. Probably going off Craig's List since this won't sell outl Did that last year and was in 20th row.

Glad to see this, I was afraid his only area appearance would be opening for Feist.

For the record, Ladytron's 9:30 show has been canceled.

I wonder if they'll let you upgrade tickets to the Merriweather show (like they did with Spoon last year). Or, even better, if they'll accept 9:30 tickets at Sonar.

(Sorry to post again, but the edit time on my last post has expired. If anyone already bought tickets to Ladytron, the tickets.com hotline doesn't have refund information for the show yet, so calling the number–call the number on the ticket envelope, not on the 9:30 ticket page–isn't any use yet. Hopefully this saves someone the recorded messages and waiting music.)
