Sorry for ANOTHER e-mail, but we wanted to clear up some issues and pass on these quick notes :
- Pitchfork (the online "indie" music zine) reported today that M.I.A was having visa issues and was not allowed access into the country. Which is true - but all issues have been worked out, she is in the country now and she IS going to be playing 4 shows in the US (the philly one being the only show in the entire north east) . We received many e-mails today asking about the show being canceled, how they can get their money refunded etc. THE SHOW IS STILL 100% ON. Pitchfork has since corrected the story. In fact there are only about 20 tickets left. After that you'll have to try your luck at the door. We'll be letting a small amount of people in w/o tickets - but everyone INCLUDING ticket holders should show up at 9pm as it's a Sunday evening, MIA will be going on EARLY. Trust us - get there at 9PM - dont sleep or be too cool trying to arrive all late.
Hopefully she makes it in.
