I'll be there Monday. Can't freakin' wait.

I know there's a tickets thread too, but figured I'd mention this here – I've got two extras for the Tuesday show that I'll sell for face…

Sold sold sold!!!!!!!!

I'll take one.

enjoy the shitty venue that is the Roseland.

Yeah, I hate Roseland, but I hate Hammerstein even more. I've at least seen shows at Roseland that I would consider to be good (Wilco, Ryan Adams, Weezer). Every show I've seen at Hammerstein other than last year's Wilco show has been atrocious.

So…guess I'm in for tuesday. :D

Rogo, I just gave a friend who may be interested in the other ticket your contact info.

Mr. P and I will be at the Saturday night show in Chicago.

Miss P and I will be in Chicago next Saturday to see them. :D

DON'T FORGET TO BRING YR EARPLUGS!!!

also, I apologize for any vomit inducing that simultaneous post may have caused… it was unintended.

Aragon…I'm finally realizing it's only a week away and getting the butterflies. A funny story…I'm going with my 2 sisters. Sister B is bringing her boyfriend. Sister A lives with scoundrel boyfriend who is cheating on her (he confessed in a drunken haze to Sister B's boyfriend). Well, Sister A finds 2 MBV tickets amongst the cheating boyfriend's stuff. He has no idea the rest of us will be at the show too. So it's going to be interesting to see if any drama unfolds when we run into the soundrel with his skanky girlfriend, who apparently is his high school crush. Dude is 41…some people just never grow up. Should be an entertaining evening all around.

i'm considering the Chicago show as well….how's the Aragon Ballroom??

still trying to figure out if i can make sunday night at ATP but it's not looking good. grumble grumble. anyone wanna buy my ticket? i'm on the way to the festival…

i have a very high tolerance to such cuteness, and my threshold is especially high today (for reasons that i'll spare y'all from)… so no probs here. in fact, it was kinda Sweet™

I haven't seen a show there since 2001 (Coldplay w/ Grandaddy, ha!), but I thought it was a cool venue. Very large GA theatre, basically. Imagine if DAR had no seats – that's what the Aragon is, kinda.

5500 capacity, has a Moroccan feel because of cool turret/balcony things. MUCH better sound than it used to have, it was very bassy and muddy back in the early 90's. They've done a lot to correct that. I'm very amped at seeing MBV there, should be a very memorable evening. I wouldn't pass it up. But I really don't agree about the DAR without seats. People used to ballroom dance at the Aragon back in the day, and it's got much more character than DAR, it's got a little more of a cavernous feel to it.

Hot Chip are playing the Metro the next day! early show…who else is going? Ms. P?
