In May at the Civic Opera House. Is this a must go to show?? Let me know please because after ticketmaster charges I see the ticket price being at close to $50. That's a lot of cash for one show, but the venue alone is intriguing as fuck.

np: Morningwood-Jetsetter (i really like the crunchy guitars in this)

I'm basing the price on the price listed for I think the MI show, which is $35.
Nothing else was listed. After Ticketmaster it could be close to $50.

Can you buy tickets (or have a friend buy tickets) at a box office somewhere to avoid the Ticketmaster charges? $35 is still over my concert limit, but it's much better than $50.

IMHO........50 bucks is worth it, it's quite the experience....

Can we buy tix at the box office?? If anyone knows, holla.

np: Wired All Wrong-Nothing At All (awesome!)

I don't think he meant day of show, I think he just meant at the venue, so no service charge.

The $30 I payed to see them at the Portland State was pretty tough to swallow, and at $50, I don't think I would have done it.

That does sound like an unbelievable venue, though.

50 bucks to see sigur ros seems reasonable to me.....why is this too much?

c'mon, most of us trick off $50 so fast that it's a joke. Fucking suck it up, buy it, check out the show.

And what's the difference between $35 and $50? Two overpriced beers?

I think it's more principle than the actual cash. I asked a friend and he already told me no because he feels he'd fall asleep and his attention span couldn't handle a Sigur Ros show. James, any interest??

np: Calle 13-Atrevete

Exactly. How often do they play the States? Have you seen them before? What are the chances they'll play that venue again?
