Manchester Orchestra / The Front Bottoms / Brother Bird / Shannen Moser Fall 2018 Tour Tour • Page 2

I know where they played, I was there. Lol. And they wouldn’t play there now. Also… The tour wouldn’t have been at The Agora either. Just sayin’.

 

I do believe the rotating each show.

 

Obviously wouldn't play there now, but where do you think it would have been if not the Agora? House of Blues would have been way too small for both these bands. TFB just sold out HOB last Fall.

 

FirstEnergy Stadium probably...







/s

 

First Energy feels a little small

 

I cannot believe this tour is hitting the Aragon (5,000 capacity). Is it because it’s a co-headliner that they both have a great draw? Last time TFB played ger they didn’t sell our House of Blues or Metro. Manchester Orchestra sold out House of Blues but it was a Lollapalooza aftershow so that may have helped.

I’m happy for them, but damn, that’s the biggest non arena venue in Chicago.

 

TFB definitely sold out at least the Metro but I'm like 95% sure they also sold out the House of Blues.

 

They’ll probably do multiple nights if anything

 

A residency.

 

I actually just lol'd at my desk

 

I bet Andy can kick better than Zane.

 

Oh damn

 

Columbus! I'm in there! I am glad that I don't have to drive to Detroit for the show now. I would have but this is about half the distance and no tolls, so that's a huge plus and I also really like Express Live! lol.

 

I was just listening to Shannen Moser’s new album this morning! My show is the day before so I hope she opens that one too

 

I’m really surprised MO are at the Aragon, considering I just saw them at Concord and HoB.

 

Didn't they sell out both those shows? Perhaps The Front Bottoms also co-headlining helps the draw. Do you think it would make more sense for them to be playing The Riviera?

 

Yeah you might be right, they may have sold out. They were definitely very full. Yeah that makes sense with TFB on the bill too, I haven’t really listened to them much so I wasn’t sure how popular they are.

I just remember seeing Brand New at Aragon and I don’t think that was sold out, I am always amazed at how huge and cavernous that place is. I’m not complaining though, it’s four blocks from my apartment.

 

The Brand New show was definitely sold out. And yea TFB played back to back sold out (or mostly sold out) shows at Metro and HOB last year, and MO sold out Concord and also HOB while also playing a pretty large crowd at Lolla. The Riv would’ve been the safe bet and definitely would’ve sold out, but Aragon opens it up for more people. Even if it doesn’t sell out it’ll be well attended.

 

Yeah you’re definitely right about BN selling out now that I think about it. I was possibly thinking about the Circa Survive / Thrice show? Who knows, I apparently have terrible memory

 

Brother Bird and Shannen Moser added as support.

 

I'm definitely not missing this, but Good Old War and Free Throw are playing the same night. Waah

 

This tour isn't coming near me but these 2 bands were at cal jam last night and they both were great. Attend their tour if you can

 

Thinking about going to Columbus

 

A bit surprised, The Front Bottoms are headlining the Raleigh date.

 

Headlining the Rochester, NY date as well from all the billing I've seen.
