Losanjealous Concert Picks: Jun 25 – July 1
PICK OF THE WEEK
Monsters Are Waiting, David Lovering, Mellowdrone,
Gliss & Meho Plaza @ The Roxy
Solid week–nearly any given night has a pick-worthy show. But this one gets the nod for sheer price-to-entertainment value ratio. 4 solid local contenders plus the Pixies’ drummer doing his scientific phenomenon show. What more can you ask for for $13?

Welcome back, Frank.
Clap Your Hands @ Troub x 3 just went on sale.
The Sonic Youth @ UO thing is yet ANOTHER one of those annoying line up for hours and hours and hope to get in things. The worthless “e-ticket” is here:

Frank, can you tell where the heck you can buy tickets for The Field?!?!
I knew about this for a while and called Joseph’s Cafe, but they know nothing about it. I even left my number for them to call back and they never did!
Frustrating…
Yo Frank, where are you rollin tonight? My pick of the night is The Veils @ Spaceland. Yeah yuh.
I’m feeling The Veils tonight too!
Should be a great show
See you boys there.
The Veils show kicked A$$! Is was so packed too. Saw some band members of some bigger bands checking out the show. Great show all around!
Oscar I did not see you. But, to be fair, I was preoccupied staring at everybody’s phones. Only saw one iPhone in the house.
Heads up:
M.I.A. @ The Echo (8/1)
***CORRECTION***
M.I.A. @ Union Station (8/1)
that should be interesting, i wonder where she is going to perform? in a train, on the platform? haha
I was in front left of the stage against the wall most of the night. Between The Comas & The Veils, I was at the merch booth where the drummer from 90’s band VSS & members of Hot Hot Heat were checking out the show shooting the sh%$t. I didn’t see you Ryan or any iPhones. Also, that M.I.A. show might be one of those FREE shows where you have to have a day pass and take the Red Line to see them free. They did that last year too with Secret Machines. Here’s the link to last year’s show: http://fashionpeace.com/pda/index.html

Nope, not free.
Has anyone else noticed a slight service fee hike recently with Ticketweb? I bought two 10 dollar tickets yesterday and the service fee was 4.50 each, bumping the total to $29.
I realize it’s still cheaper than TM, but a 4.50 service fee on 10 dollars is a 45% fee.
Ticketweb is owned by Ticketmaster now BTW. That might explain the slightly highers rates.
Anyone have any info on who is performing at the 826 benefit, 7/25 at Largo?
I tried buying tickets for M.I.A. but they are “currently unavailable.” Does anyone know if that page will be up again, or is it already sold out…?? Thanks!
p.s. I am very excited Girl Talk went on sale.
Wow, Sold Out already for M.I.A. Galang galang!
I don’t think it is sold out, just taken off the site for some reason. When shows sell out on Ticketweb they are usually still listed.
