The Bravery

So many questions….

The Bravery are essentially a garage band whose sound has been synthesized. Not guitars w/ synths ala Killers, but the actual guitar sound has been fooled around with a bit. Catchy songs, played with just enough agression for them to warrant their black leather jacket look. Their 3 song EP is available to listen to on their website. There used to be mp3's hosted somewhere, which i've downloaded, but i forget where from. Some searching w/ google and you can probably still find them.

Def not loser for not knowing about them. Too many indie bands, so little time. Oh, and there is a presale going on that's available both through their email list and website.

Thanks…

I think you'd enjoy them. Most of the ladies seem to REALLY enjoy them. You can listen to their EP on their web site:

Top right corner launches the Bravery player.

You can also watch the new video for their single "An Honest Mistake" on the site. Their first video for "Unconditional" was better though, but mainly because it featured dozens of super models.

Their songs are catchy 80's style dance tunes.

You should go see Ash either way.

I've already got my Ash ticket – missed the post that noted Bravery is opening. Cool – though the 3 songs from the EP aren't sounding particularly inspired to me.

I need to get 2 ASh tickets…how much are they going for?? think it will sell out?

$10-12 - something like that

I think theres a decent chance there will be a Bravery-fuelled sellout

Yeah, The Bravery are going to have to win me over. I've now listened to a few songs and am not sure what I think of them. Will you be back in town for the show, Bags?

I think the show will sell out, Fico. Didn't Ash sell out on their own last time?

I'm definitely going to this show – back in town, and I have two tickets in hand.

Looks like The Bravery are now headlining. From the Black Cat site:

THUR MAR 10- THE BRAVERY, ASH, THE CRIMEA $13 mainstage 8:30

thought the same thing, but the ad still lists Ash as the headliner along with their picture….

I assume you can get tickets for the show via ticketmaster/tickets.com?

ticketmaster yes, don't know the availability..

is this going to sell out?

I'm to lazy to find the Ash thread on this show… And its pointless to start yet another thread for roll call purposes. So I present you the Faux Roll call thread.

So who is going tonight?

I'm there and Kosmette's going but grumping because Ash is playing so late.

Went to the show in Philly last night. Overall, I thought The Bravery were good, but not great. They have a lot of potential though and definitely worth seeing. Ash was fantastic! They covered most of the songs from Meltdown, three from Free All Angels and a few other songs from earlier releases. Crimea was awful, not worth seeing in my opinion.

Do you know how late?

Late maybe relative… As Miss Marple points they will probably hit the stage around 11pm.

so they only played a few good songs then :D

Kosmette is considering staying home tonight… So I've got an extra ticket for sale if anyone wants it. PM for details… Should be at the BC around 8:45 tonight
