Justice presale on sale tomorrow (july 26) at 10 am on ticketmaster.
does anyone know if there is a presale password?
I think the Justice presale is only for Amex card holders. use your card and youre in. no pass necessary. Rumor is Erol Alkan is opening. shweeit.
does anyone know what the setlists have been like for the rentals shows at spaceland? i’m not shelling out $$ to hear a bunch of new shit.
one of the two suprise headliners for the benefit for Ferdie Cuilda of 400 Blows on Aug. 4th at the echoplex is Circle Jerks
Oh holy crap the Rapture show was awesome. It was a little bit on the short side–60 minutes including encore–but they hit all the high notes and didn’t include any of their momentum-killing songs. I’d go to tomorrow’s show too but I’m going to Maxïmo Park on Friday.
Just F y’all’s I, the info website for the Culver City Dub Collective show got hacked.
The Rapture killed it. Even if it was for only an hour.
john, they play a few songs off their EP. They also break out into “I Just Threw Out the Love Of My Dreams” which is a very pleasant surprise.
Speaking of the Rentals, Tokyo Police Club closed out with “Friends of P” @ The Troubadour last night.
thanks shenny! i think i’ll go.
Maxïmo Park were so much fun. Fists were pumped, lyrics were shouted.
Before I leave outta town…
!!! @ The Avalon, Sept 26
Mute Math with Eisley @ The Avalon, Sept 27
