Brand New Band • Page 591

Checked again a few minutes ago, there were very few left. Keep trying!

 

I would be so down for this!

 

Has anyone ever see them at a seated theater? Going to be a bit strange ha.

 

it'll sound better and have fewer shitty fans to mess things up, honestly.

seeing paramore in a seated theater was fantastic

 

I agree! Strange for sure but much bigger venues than pervious runs in the last few years (besides Modest Mouse tour), I wonder why the shift other than size.

 

Thanks! I'll order some - any favourites from their range?

Whereabouts are you in the UK/London?

I thought I was but had to check - last time I saw them was fucking 2004 at the London Astoria (rip) haha.

 

much smaller than the devil and god tour run, that was at a college basketball arena here

 

Right! I totally forgot about that and I even went, any chance you were at Eagle Bank?

 

sure was. two and a half hour drive was ridiculous, crazy it takes that long to get from baltimore through DC when philly is easily under two hours. i hate DC traffic, haha. only thing i miss about being in the metro area is dc accessibility

 

Awesome! I did see Paramore at a seated theater in Baltimore a few years ago, and I agree, it was amazing. Wasn't sure with BN, but I am sooo stoked (*crosses fingers that fans are better)

 

La Boca Del Diablo is my favourite one and the BBQ one is good too. I currently have a bottle of the Nagatropolis too, I really like it but it's crazy hot if you use too much haha

Shit mate! Sort it out haha Was that the tour with Straylight Run supporting?

 

yup, that meyerhoff show was great. still lived in college park at that point and was furious i missed the first song of copeland (who i hadn't seen to that point and are a top 5 all time band for me) and i bailed during future to avoid getting caught in the lot, but that place is wonderful. the sufjan show there is one of the best shows i've ever seen.

 

Oh I know! DC traffic is truly awful, you can never get anywhere fast even on metro now. It was single tracking most of the summer. I'm happy they are play baltimore this time around much easier and more pleasant drive (well mostly).

 

this show is walkable for me, always a major plus, hah.

 

That's GREAT and I'm slightly jealous! I love baltimore, I'm about 35 minutes away which is nothing compared to other shows.

 

pluses about living in baltimore: everything is close
minuses: dc blowwwwwwws

 

I've seen them seated a few times, but with a pit up in front. I much prefer sitting to standing at a concert, as lame as that sounds. Easier to pay attention to everything, and easier to drink.

 

I'm curious about Detroit, because they are selling orchestra pit seats and main floor seats, which I don't really know what the difference will be other than the pit is closer to the stage obviously

 

Ya it worked but not mobile. Still dont have any yet. Will be trying tomorrow

 

Yeah the pit is standing, and is right in front of the stage, then main floor is seating directly behind pit that extends back to the balcony. I got main floor, pit was sold out so fast :(

 

Pluses: more shows are in baltimore than every before.
Minus: DC still gets great shows and I have a hard time rationing driving there.
Goal: Live in Baltimore and have O's season tickets

 

I was planning on Tower Theatre and King's Theater but I may not to squeeze Electric Factory in there because...this band is not meant to be seen in seats.

 

oh damn! had I for sure known that I would have tried for pit because they were available on Tuesday, but yeah luckily I got main floor too. Hope they are fairly near the stage

 

Can Straylight Run open?

 

Awesome thanks, I'll check a couple out!

Haha it was! I saw them three times that year I think, couple headlines and once when they supported Incubus at Wembley.
