Anybody able to get ATDI tickets? My friend said they were on sale today, but now he says they were pre-sale. I can't even find a link!

looks like there are still tickets….but $45?   

Says none available for me, but I'm glad it's just the artist pre sale. Hopefully 930 has one at some point. Does it list a regular on sale date yet?

I got a ticket in my cart…a minute ago..but I put it back

keep reloading……..there's a chance they are selling all tickets on this presale.

geesus people what do we need to do ?? buy a ticket for you, print it out and walk it over to your house??


(with scattered exceptions) ALWAYS buy on the presale which far easier than the general.

A 2nd night has been added apparently!

I got two tickets.  About $15 more than I wanted to spend, but I think in the end I'll be happy to check them off my list.

Adding one venue to downtown Baltimore will not hurt anything.

Tell that to the murder rate.

Remember the Fillmore? They can't even find stuff to book!

Silver spring, dude. Who, goes there?

Silver Spring does suck… I'll give you that…

I was able to get an ATDI ticket. I have been a fan since middle school but never got to see them. I was mad about the price but whatever….14 year old me never got to utter the words "I'm going to see At The Drive-In at the 9:30 Club"

Me, too.

Hopefully their new music is good.  The Mars Volta always sucked.  Sparta sucked after two albums (the first was amazing, second was pretty good).  Maybe the reunion will spark some good tunes.  Maybe it will be just crap plus crap…

Edit: RE the Mars Volta… I have not listened to them since Frances the Mute (did not really care for it or De-Loused) so maybe I would like their later stuff… My tastes have changed/evolved in the last decade since that album came out and I have not revisited either album I have already heard/own.

Yes.  What is your opinion?

oh..well.. opinions are like assholes..everyone's got one.

the first album was pretty good.. the tremulant ep was killer… they put on a great show too (saw them at the showbox in seattle)…

they're not my kind of music.. but I wouldn't go so  far as to say they suck!

I guess I am edgy.

Most people who hear TMV say they suck, its pretty humorous haha. System of A Down's fb recently put up an image of a poster from when TMV opened for them and the comments section lit up with hatred for them. I am a fan of Cedric and Omar is whatever they do. I really loved the first two albums and Tremulant. All their other albums are pretty good too. The live one is pretty bad though haha.

I agree with the Sparta assessment. Wiretap Scars is a classic to me. Porcelain was good too. Threes only had like 2-3 good songs the rest sounded like U2. Austere EP was great as well. I would enjoy seeing Sparta again one day down the line.
