Official 930 Club Belle and Sebastian Echostage June 11 Show

I was surprised to see Belle and Sebastian are playing the Echoplex which is the Capitals practice facility in Ballston… given the magnitude of the show I thought it warranted its own thread..

Anybody planning on going? Is there an opener?

Echostage is the venue.

will there be a presale for American Express cardholders?

Think you meant to say EchoStage :)

oh my bad.. I stand corrected..

i havent seen them in like forever..seriously…

these days what would the likelihood be of them playing My Wandering Days Are Over? Is that their regular closer (I mean I've got to believe..)…

Is the set list mainly from Tigermilk, IYFS, and TBWTAS?

Also any info on meet and greets would be cool…I just picked up a second copy of their DVD..everyone got that? Its called "For Fans Only"!

I don't believe B&S has a standard "closer". On the last tour it was Get Me Away From Here I'm Dying.

I don't think we have any definitive ideawhat their set is going to be like. With a new album, it'll probably be pretty heavy on that. At Merriweather, summer 2013, which was further from an album release, there was really only 2-3 from IYFS and 4ish from TBWTAS. Don't think anything off Tigermilk got played. I'd expect this tour to be very new album heavy.

People of Earth, the IMP presale is actually on Thursday! 10 am EASTERN..

Regular on sale is FRIDAY at 10 am

all sales are apparently through Ticketmaster

To be fair, it will probably be one of, if not the, most boardie attended show of 2015.

That said, it probably does not NEED its own thread.

You just did.

The hobo comments…  What is your deal?  I asked a simple question.

Thank you for your answer Julian, you were most helpful with my inquiry.

Now, that's the first reasonable suggestion I've heard all day.
