Anyone know how much?
Anyone good at predicting? Do you think tickets will be available at the ticket window tomorrow night?

It will sell out quick I bet.

Really? I know they're still a buzz band but it seems like they've lost some of their momentum.

Witch & Earthless will also be at the Ottobar the following saturday (2/28).

I'm thinking I'd rather do that one.

Perhaps still buzzing, but they are moving into the solid and consistent front, I think.

And, Joe - your last post – waaaayyy too much going on late Feb…head will explode!

I agree.  Friends of mine I've talked to about the show, who actually like bloc party didn't even know they had a new album out.  They're momentum has certainly slowed.. how much, i dunno.

Tough one to gauge on whether it'll sell out quick or take a few days.  Always best to err on the side of caution i'd say.

for you manimtired, don't LOL this one, ok?

Hm. Well, maybe it's their promotion dept. slacking. ;) They have been in Europe for a bit….but maybe it's good they aren't getting a buzz overkill so they have some longevity. 
I hate to complain too much since they are running a pretty ragged tour, and Seth still managed to squeeze them in for us – but $35 I thought was slightly over what I expected to pay. I guess I don't care though, I paid it, and it'll be good to see 'em.
