    Great news hopefully I will be going to both of these shows.

  3. “unprecedented ticket demand”

    Well gee, if a band plays has only played one show (2005) in the past twenty years (since 1993) in a major metropolis, maybe their promoter shouldn’t pick one of the smallest venues available. Or are we proud of selling a whopping 3,200 tickets?
