i figured we'd stop cloggin the JA thread and make it its own.
i was very excited about the JA/NIN show but i figured this was more of an "occasion" and i am a sucker for that sort of stuff.
what time are people thinking of getting there? I am aiming for 5:30 but feels thats gonna be prrrretty late.

I'm just going to run home after work, change and head up there. I don't see me getting there until 7:00 or so.
Is there an opener?

I was thinking that, too. Not with 7:00 doors and an all-will-call show.

NIN/JA would have been cool but I agree friends+BB>NIN
5:30 is starting to sound way early! maybe you can spend your time breakdancing outside. ;)
The BBshow at 930 was a little chaotic but despite the late arrival of BB it ran pretty smoothly. Well, it was smooth once someone yelled at everyone and told them what to do…but I think it took less than an hour to check people in…
I hope the powers that be start the show at least before or at nine o'clock – pretty please??
No offense, I'm hoping there is no opener.
I'm sporting a cold/sinus infection and with the long drive in the rain I just want to go back to bed. Thank you.

A bunch of 35 year old white people standing around (or worse, dancing) to 45 year old white Jewish guys rapping. Should be quite a scene. Maybe MC Serch will cameo?

It's OK Sonick. Rhett has to resign himself to the fact that's he's married with a kid now and therefore "old" and can't get away with doing certain things because he doesn't have the freedom that some of us have. We can stay out late on a school night enjoying the music and antics (and sure, it's the music of our youth) instead of listening to a crying baby with a loaded diaper. But you know what? We all make choices, and I think it's amusing how some people are all sour grapes about it. If Rhett chooses to put negativity out there, that's his choice. I don't have time for it.

Nah, it's gonna be fun, Rhett. I streamed their new stuff (they do have a new album coming out, yo) and I still like them. Besides, I already have my chair & umbrella for the wait and my walker for the show. ;)

ok, scoop is this….
doors are at 7pm. show will commence when "everyone is in the venue" This should be anywhere between 8pm-9pm. (i hope!)
opener plays then Beastie Boys. Show will last 2 1/2 hours from time opener goes on
so sounds like opener has 30 minutes, then 30 minute break then 90 minute set?
should be over by 11:30 at the latest though.

I actually have tickets to Phoenix, Wilco, M. Ward, and Fleet Foxes…all on school nights, and before going out, I get the pleasure of the company of a toddler who rarely cries, poops her diaper no more than once a day, andhugs me and tells me how much she missed me when i walk through the door.
What a life! Yes, I have a wonderful wife.
