The National

[threesunrises]

when they came through last spring and did four theater shows, i couldn't give away my extras, so I'm thinking the factors will align and this will be much cheaper closer to show date. also, there's a severe amount of overlap in these two fanbases, so I don't even think it will end up being two different audiences buying up tickets.

Which, I believe, is why it's called the Venn Diagram tour. EDIT: I thought it was Venn but it's Zen! Ha! I've lost my mind.

We were at the first two shows at Auditorium in Chicago last May. Had a blast. Would have loved to stay for the last two but had to get back home.

Pit GA tickets for Denver were $100… so I opted for a reserved seat for $65 instead . I was on the fence about a late September outdoor show (could be fairly chilly already by then), but I’ve actually never been to Fiddler’s Green before in my decade+ living in CO.

Limited tour shirt for sale until the 4th with each band having its own design.

Zendiagram: the space balls tour, the quest for more money.

Ps: I don't mind as long as the show is good. Get you $

I was planning on buying a shirt at the show anyhow. If I buy it now I can wear it all summer and don’t have to worry about carrying it around with me during the show. I prefer The National shirt more than The War On Drugs shirt.

I buy nearly all shirts. Passing on this one. Really cranky over ticket prices and bs early entry costing double.

I really hope this isn’t a sign of things to come for them…..

I think it’s just because of the double headliner package for this tour. I liked their last two records but I really don’t think the National are entering a popularity renaissance in 2024 and beyond.

I definitely agree. $80 with fees for a single ticket headlining a gig is a lot. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them charge $90, $100 but anything more than that is price gouging their fans. I’d have to really think about at that point.

Was going through some old photos and came across these gems. This would've been fall 2012. They came to campus at Xavier University to register folks to vote. Me and a good friend ran around trying to find them.
