First Avenue tickets

There have been a lot of great show announcements at First Avenue this week. The first of which is another celebratory event: The Onion's 1143rd Twin Cities Issue Celebratory Gathering. Quite the title, no? But it's the Onion, so what do you expect.

First Avenue tickets go on sale this Friday for the Onion's celebratory show. The line up includes a lot of local favorites Pink Mink, BNLX, Zebulon Pike, Fuck Knights, Grant Cutler & the Gorgeous Lords, DJ Jake Rudh and a special headlining guest which is TBA.

You can catch most of the acts at our local favorite bars on any given weekend (Hexagon, 331 Club, 7th Street Entry, etc) but here they are all in one spot, one night only! Pink Mink was this years City Pages "Pick to Click" artist so there is a lot of buzz about these guys.

If you are not familiar with the Onion, you should be. Here is one of my favorite Onion articles:
