New York City-area magic

I would absolutely love to go to this. I was disappointed in no NYC date besides GovBall. I will get to see him at Boston Calling but a small show like this for Jack White would be amazing.

I will definitely be trying for tickets if a regular onsale happens.

And for anyone who is doing GovBall and is going to try for this....I will pay you for an extra ticket if you can snag one. This show should be awesome.


Sidenote - I noticed yesterday that Jack is bringing Neal Evans from Soulive/Lettuce on tour with him this year. That's awesome. Can't wait to see how this live band stacks up to the previous tour.

Here's the official info from Third Man Records. It includes info about the two other shows he's doing but figured i'd post the whole thing here:


Jack White will celebrate the release of his new album BOARDING HOUSE REACH with three intimate performances in Los Angeles, Brooklyn, and London. These will be the first shows featuring new songs from BOARDING HOUSE REACH, outside of two “Live First Listen” previews held at White’s own Third Man Records in Nashville this week, and will feature White’s new touring outfit: Carla Azar on drums, Quincy McCrary and Neal Evans on keys, and Dominic Davis on bass guitar. Show times, ticket availabilities, and pre-sales vary from event to event, but each present a rare opportunity for audiences to be among the first to acquaint themselves with White’s new material from BOARDING HOUSE REACH as well as reimagined songs from his catalog.

Another cool show on the 23rd:

MGMT playing the grand opening of Sony Hall

RSVP for FREE tickets

"Located in New York's Theatre District (at the Paramount Hotel), the multi-dimensional audio technology installed in Sony Hall provides a groundbreaking immersive music experience that is the first of its kind for a music venue anywhere in the world."

Sony Hall sounds sweet. New tech, 1000 standing, 500 seated. Just sucks it's located in the city's asshole

Beck presale info:

PRE-SALE BEGINS 3/20 at 9AM LOCAL

Not sure if $125 + fees is worth it for Beck GA floor (especially because I know I won't get super close). We'll see how the prices break down soon.

Neither its being programmed by Blue Note Media (BB Kings, Highline Ballroom, ect)

Elsewhere's been doing pretty solid

I'll be there the Friday night

At Nils Frahm at Knockdown Center right now, anyone else here?

Not exactly NYC but close. Avett Brothers, Gov't Mule (doing Dark Side of the Mule), and Magpie Salute at Jones Beach on July 12th:

See you in the pit.   New album apparently coming in May.   Wonder who's opening.

Meanwhile ppl at the event discussion on FB, Floor GA sold the fuck out.

Got two tickets to Charli XCX's Pop 2 show at Elsewhere tonight, 3/18. Doors at 8PM. Friend dopped out, now I'm lazy to go. PDF tickets, ready to email. Carly Rae, Tove Lo, and others showed up at the LA show

Surprised tickets to a few nights of Phoenix at BK Steel are still available. Guess they really dipped in popularity.
