The Hammerstein show didn't intrigue me much, but this one...

That's borderline ludicrous. And I thought it was insane to see them at Toad's Place in New Haven.

Anyone manage tix? Sold out. Or at least nothing coming up on Tm. Will Call ONLY for the show. At least that'll somewhat manage scalpers.

Still worth showing up early to try to grab tickets that will be held in-reserve. I don't recall ever not getting into a show this way in NYC, but that's not to guarantee.

On the 18th they're playing Great Scott in Allston,Ma a club that holds about 300. It's sold out as well. They then are playing H.O.B Boston in November, seems they booked some smaller venues on purpose.

I saw EATB play Mercury Lounge around the Evergreen album. Les was still in the band. Great show!

I saw them at Tramps in '93 or '94, but at that time Ian wasn't in the band!! The song list supported the mostly reviled Reverberation album, but I thought the concert was still great. Better in fact than most of the live performances I saw in the late 80's where Ian would smoke a joint on stage, and the songs would meander endlessly.
