None of those are near Boston?

[permafrost]

Cambridge! the last date.

[Ren]

That's not Cambridge, Ontario though is it? Flaming death.

[drsteve]

I'm positive that Charlotte date is wrong because the Tremont website is saying that Throwdown
Zao
Evergreen Terrace
Maylene and the Sons of Disaster
are playing on the 26th of August

[emilie]

no canadian dates? gah..

[sidewalkends]

No Florida dates either, sadly.
I'll be driving all the way up to Atlanta from South Florida for the show at the Drunken Unicorn. Farthest I've ever driven for show.

[permafrost]

Charlotte Change!
Sorry - it was my original post that was wrong.
but IT'S ON!

Can Anyone tell me what the heck is the venue for "August 28 Washington DC" and also if "Aug 27 somewhere in Virginia" actually exists as I saw posted somewhere else before?

The Lily Pad is the new name for the Zeitgeist Gallery in Cambridge.
My understanding is that it was the first venue in Boston to have the Arcade Fire perform. On July 10th, 2003, AF, Xiu Xiu, and Devendra Banhart performed in the tiny art gallery. There are some pictures floating around the ol' world wide web, if you're interested in seeing Tim with a buzzcut.

Anywho, the Zeitgeist generally didnt permit a cover charge, just a "suggested donation" of $10. I believe the Lily Pad continues to work this way.

Is Sept 1 a definite date? The Lily Pad site has nothing listed, and early tour lists said the Boston date would be the 2nd.

Final Fantasy is scheduled to play at The Red and the Black in DC on August 28th. I believe it is a 21 and up venue.

Anyone know where to get good fake IDs? I'm just kidding...sort of.

[kakeeman]

Drat, if I weren't getting my wisdom teeth removed, I'd drive to Austin on the 18th. No such luck.

[sidewalkends]

Does anybody know if they're pre-selling tickets / selling tickets online for the 25th at the Drunken Unicorn (Atlanta)?

[traffik]

Citylights... I'm currently in DC and I'm in the same boat as you... Stupid 21+ rule...

If this is an official date, please please tell me it is not 18+. I was so depressed when Owen played at TT the Bears, 'cause I couldn't go. So, does anyone know if the Lily Pad is usually all-ages or not? Or if this particular show is going to be all-ages? Thanks.
