Grizzly Bear: Officially Sold Out.com!

If you were planning on going to Grizzly Bear tomorrow night and you do not have and First Avenue tickets for the show - you may be out of luck. Word on the street is that the Grizzly Bear and Beach House show is sold out - tickets are now difficult to find.

Grizzly Bear is on tour in support of their 3rd album Veckatimest is the third full-length studio album released on May 26, 2009 on Warp Records. The album is named after a small island in Dukes County, Massachusetts.

Beach House is opening the show. Beach House have released 2 albums, their self titled in 2006 and Devotion in 2008.

You can hear both acts on 89.3 the Current, the Current plays "Two Weeks" by Grizzly Bear a million times a day and I hear it even more on my XM Satellite Radio XMU Station.

So I wish all of you still looking for Grizzly Bear tickets good luck. If you can't find them online or on the street you may have to just listen from the street.

Have fun at the show if you're going!

The Sounds Announce New Show!

yes, you read that correctly. The Sounds have announced a new show date in Minneapolis at First Avenue. This is a huge change from their usual place, the Varsity Theater. Not to mention First Avenue holds about 400-500 more people than the Varsity. The Sounds do have a new album out, Crossing the Rubicon, which they are touring in support of.

First Avenue tickets have been on sale for this event for a couple of weeks. It has not been announced yet who will be opening for them, I am hoping for my new favorite band, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes. Seriously, check them out on their myspace page, they are awesome.

I have seen the Sounds so many times, I'm not sure if I will make it to this one. But regardless, get your First Avenue tickets for this show soon - The Sounds are awesome live!!



The Sounds, Thursday, November 5th at First Avenue, doors open at 6
