Hell yeah Spoon Announce U.S. Tour
Getting a chance to see them twice, so looking forward to it!Hell yeah Spoon Announce U.S. Tour
Considering Port Chester, Jersey City & Brooklyn. Love me some SpoonGetting a chance to see them twice, so looking forward to it!
Me too. Port Chester is my favorite venue of the three (and most convenient to my home) but might be more difficult to wrangle my friends up there. White Eagle is fun and the last night of the tour, but the least convenient and on a Sunday night. Brooklyn is probably the right call, though I may see if I can score good seats at the Capitol.Considering Port Chester, Jersey City & Brooklyn. Love me some Spoon
Is the Cap show not GA? Or do you mean that you want balcony seats? I used to live just over the state line in CT, practically within walking distance of the venue. We’ve been in NJ for over 20 years now, so I’ve only been to the Cap once since it reopened for shows. Love it. I have yet to see a show at White Eagle, so looking forward to finally getting there.Me too.

Cap is sometimes GA, sometimes orchestra seats. Not sure which this one will be but my guess is seats.Is the Cap show not GA? Or do you mean that you want balcony seats?

Just checked TM - it's a GA floor showCap is sometimes GA, sometimes orchestra seats. Not sure which this one will be but my guess is seats.
I remembered about the Strokes at 12:55 - can join the waitlist, but it's gonna be a long day as I'll be in line in Princeton early that am for RSD, and we are driving up to New Haven on Sunday for Goose at Westville. Did pick up Jersey City tix for Spoon - would like to do the Cap, too, but not sure if we can make it that night. Might hope for some luck closer to show date.I ended up getting Loge seats for Port Chester (if I do end up at that one it might be with my wife who’s not a fan of GA) and GA for Brooklyn. We’ll play it by ear.
More importantly, I just grabbed two for The Strokes at Irving Plaza on Saturday.
Booked so far for 2021: Strokes, Wilco/Sleater Kinney, Pearl Jam (plus whoever else I might see at the Asbury Park festival), MMJ, Spoon and Jason Isbell. Wouldn’t have believed that even like two months ago.
Those Pearl Jam dates are going to get rescheduled for spring ‘22. The inmates in the Ten Club forum are getting themselves all worked up with speculation on fall dates, but I think it’s pretty clear that PJ is just going to do in 2022 what they were fixing to do in 2020, plus or minus these two festival dates.I remembered about the Strokes at 12:55 - can join the waitlist, but it's gonna be a long day as I'll be in line in Princeton early that am for RSD, and we are driving up to New Haven on Sunday for Goose at Westville.

We will also be at SHN - really pleased with the day 1 lineup as we will see Goose again, as well as Reignwolf (absolutely love those guys) and of course it will be fantastic to see PJ again. Hoping they announce rescheduled dates soon as we have Toronto, Baltimore & NYC and were hoping to get to St. Louis as well. Also have Julien Baker and Bright Eyes with more shows hopefully to be added.
Congrats on The Strokes - should be a great show at the renovated Irving. Hope to get there soon.Those Pearl Jam dates are going to get rescheduled for spring ‘22.

I was johnny on the spot with the Strokes tix today, they appear to have gone in a couple minutes at most. Not surprising considering the capacity.
A bunch of friends picked up tix to the show (confession: I'm just not much of a fan since their first few albums) One friend who hates GA will be in GA and another who loves GA just isn't ready to do it, so she opted for really nice lowers. Will be so interesting to hear about everyone's take on it.Foo Fighters x Pixies are going to re-open the MSG with 100% capacity on June 20.
That show is either going to be a huge, drunken free-for-all or 20,000 people awkwardly unsure of how to act after 15 months of lockdown.

Like you I’m sitting on Baltimore and MSG tickets - the Baltimore show was set up so perfectly with the 4 pm Yanks game, it was too good to be true...my only real hope is that it ends up still being a weekend show.Congrats on The Strokes - should be a great show at the renovated Irving.

100% agree that the PJ tour won't be rescheduled until spring - there is NO way they're playing arenas this fall. Jeff Ament did a promo on Sirius PJRadio saying "we look forward to seeing all of you OUTSIDE in September" I have no doubt they had back up dates on hold for this fall, but they will push it to the spring. Will be curious to see if they can keep the order of shows - we specifically put in for Toronto since it was the tour kick off. I LOVE seeing shows there, but if they kick off somewhere else in Canada, I will want to be at that show as well.
We have two shows with The National in Ireland next June. Unfortunately, they're a bit too early in the month to incorporate a PJ show or two unless we stay in Europe longer than I would normally plan.Like you I’m sitting on Baltimore and MSG tickets - the Baltimore show was set up so perfectly with the 4 pm Yanks game, it was too good to be true...my only real hope is that it ends up still being a weekend show.
I also have picked up some tickets for the first Amsterdam show a year from now - it’s right around my 40th birthday so I’m hoping I can finagle a trip around it somehow, but that’s easier said than done.
When I think about how Baltimore was supposed to go last year - my in-laws live down there and my son has been breaking my balls to go to a Yankees game at Camden, so I set it up as a family trip that would transition into a baseball-and-PJ trip with my friends as the game went on - it feels like the montage in a heist movie where they explain/visualize the way the elaborate caper is supposed to work before everything goes wrong.We have two shows with The National in Ireland next June.

We are within distance to Baltimore to go to the show and come home after. Unfortunately, so many friends were also going and we had planned to all meet up and it will be sad if that can't happen. It's so hard to be patient - I hope they announce soon so we can plan our spring!
We considered going to the game in Baltimore tonight. We are Mets fans, Matt Harvey is pitching.When I think about how Baltimore was supposed to go last year - my in-laws live down there and my son has been breaking my balls to go to a Yankees game at Camden, so I set it up as a family trip that would transition into a baseball-and-PJ trip with my friends as the game went on - it feels like the montage in a heist movie where they explain/visualize the way the elaborate caper is supposed to work before everything goes wrong.
I find some solace in the fact that the weather absolutely SUCKED that weekend. Cold rain. The game would have been awful, waiting to get in the venue would have been awful.... who am I kidding? I'd have loved every freaking minute of it.When I think about how Baltimore was supposed to go last year - my in-laws live down there and my son has been breaking my balls to go to a Yankees game at Camden, so I set it up as a family trip that would transition into a baseball-and-PJ trip with my friends as the game went on - it feels like the montage in a heist movie where they explain/visualize the way the elaborate caper is supposed to work before everything goes wrong.
