Yeah. Last time you started a thread like this, you had me preparing for a road trip down there to see Soringsteen.

This is actually going to be a home run booking

They were a band mentioned in the "so who do you want to see at the varsity?" thread

So I guess that means The Gin Blossoms are touring.

If that's the thread im thinking of, modest mouse sure was mentioned a few times. I can see that happening. They've played the hob before which is just slightly larger than the varsity.

I would lose my shite if it was Modest Mouse. Easily would be my top choice.


This comment makes me think it wouldn't be them though:

Ah well, I got excited about bush They were cool back in the day This announcement is for a band that is very very relevant

That is scary that you got excited about Bush. I thought you had decent taste?

And Bush was not cool back in the day unless you listened to a ton of crappy modern rock on the Tiger

Superchunk, Sebadoh, Jon Spencer etc and the like were cool back in that day. Not Glycerine

I don't live in BR, but i am interested in the direction of live music in my hometown, so i think it's better for everyone if you restrained yourself a bit and let the actual Varsity website do the announcing.

Relevance is certainly subjective in this case. I will be impressed with the booking direction when i see a show that isn't a slam dunk or no brainer ... something that is risky or forward thinking and tests the Art vs Commerce theory for the owners who are already printing money and don't take kindly to non-revenue making shows

Someone go thru that other thread and make a list of all the bands named...We will figure this shite out the hard way

My guess would be Alabama Shakes, but they havent been around to long

I also think it is impossible to say "this is a band that everyone likes" .... There are a ton of dumbasses that like shitty music, so thats impossible..

Hell, I know people that dont care for the Beatles

If that was the case, this band would be the biggest band in the world

yeah I hate this kind of stuff. Its the internet. I doubt they trace it back to you. If you know, leak it. Sounds like you don't really know & just putting a general statement out there for attention.

I don't doubt that he knows what the announcement is going to be, I just don't get the "Hey, look at me!" mentality of posting something of which you can give no details

1. Something to talk about on the music board

2. Helping spread the word/hype for the show. It's going to be a really good one. Been waiting on them to play the varsity for years.
