Why couldn't these go on sale tomorrow when I'm going to be in town!?




My guess is there is already a line down the block.
Probably. 

The best option for Friday is the dual album release show for Dope Body and Roomrunner.
What I wasn't sure of is it 6PM 10.21 or 6pm on 10/24 for tickets?

edit…never mind…just learning to read

Black Cat's FB page confirms if you're not currently in line, don't even try.


my assistant is currently in line.


Wait…did Julian log in to Yada's account…didn't atomic keep talking about how he got his intern to do all his bidding?
Believe it or not, multiple people on earth may have assistants.
I hope people took umbrellas!

I had trouble parking so I left…

Anyways, I'm a big shot.. I'll just talk to Dante or if that fails Al Budd and they'll sort it out…
told you, it would, be good.
Odds of a FRiday night shoe being added?

Did anyone try to get FF tickets? Curious how crazy that line was.

BC posted not to bother coming if you weren't already in line around 3:30pm

14th St parking is a nightmare anytime after…. 6 or so.
ahh . . . the days when 14th street was nothing more than crime, drugs, and hookers.  it was easy to park back then.

I got mine. To be honest, that was the most fun I think I've ever had waiting in line to get tickets. I met these 2 gals behind me in line who were cool as hell, we all ended up talking it turns out we have friends in common. In the end, we all got to hang out and talk and it made the time waiting fly by. Even the rain wasn't bad because the staff let us into the club…they opened the bar, we ordered drinks, and just waited for our numbers to be called. Anyway, judging from the crowd, there will be folks who show up at this show that you'd never see at a Verizon Center show…it's going to be a fun audience. I know it's easy to trash big rock stars and question why a band like the Foos got so big, but they're not your typical rock stars. These guys strike me as about as thoughtful as it comes to their fans, and they have a strong desire to stay connected to their roots. I've missed their other shows at the Black Cat, so I'm glad I'm going to get to see them there this time. And I'm excited to see some of the other boardies that'll be there too.

People still get mugged around there! Follow the crime Twitter handles and what not. It's still prevalent. Probably nowhere near as bad as it used to be. It's nice to be able to walk a couple blocks though. Too bad it gets so crowded.
