What show on the US tour would be your choice?
Thoughts on any of the shows that stand out as something the would be worth traveling for.
11/12/12 Washington, DC 9:30 Club
11/13/12 Philadelphia, PA Theatre of the Living Arts
i know i'm late. but i've been to TLA. nice. small. spacious and great sound as long as you are not under the balconies.
Just bought my tickets for the Nov. 28 show at the Fillmore-Detroit. (Still feels weird calling it the Fillmore. It'll always be the State Theater to me). I'm already jacked for this show!
9:30 Club, Washington. The band loves to play there I believe. Heck, Paul even used to regularly wear a "9:30" T shirt. Venue seems small in vids I have seen. Back in the day, they did a radio broadcast when at the 9:30 Club (Pre Phantom Power, when "best friends/escape" was showing up in NOIS).
See ya in Roch cha cha on the 6th.
BTW, WNY is a fav. of the band too. Gord has commented on how much the band loves playing the beautiful old auditoriums, the band takes pleasure in it...a happy band means a good show IMHO. Best Friends/Escape was first played in Rochester in the mid '90's in the middle of NOIS. A verse before the tempo change for escape all the speakers went dead except fot the bands monitors, so what we were a part of/hearing was partially lost due to no sound. I have a VHS tape with this show on it. I think I was still navigating the web using Netscape back then.
At this point I have the album pre-ordered so this really doesn't matter but did anyone get the email for the free download of At Transformation with ticket purchase??
(Every online ticket purchase will receive an e-mail with a free download of our single 'At Transformation'/ from the Hip email

Good question - I know I never did...
I got my email with the download this evening.
