That would be reason enough for me to go. If not, I'll be taking the train to Queens NY.

 

Man… there is a thread for every tour in this section. Lol

 

not really, still very biased towards a very specific group of bands
lots of really great tours are never posted about here

 

Well, I'll be at this. Just wish Phoenix was headlining and tickets were cheaper, $68 here...

 

Excited to finally see them for the first time! Also, can't believe I've never been to Forest Hills Stadium after living in the area and going to shows for 7 years.

 

Ok.

 

i don't even get what you were complaining about lol is it bad to have diversity?

 

It's only been around for like 3 years!

 

ah, that explains things. I just assumed they've always had shows. Just looked up some of its history and learned about it, thanks!

 

If you know of other tours that you find interesting that are slept on here, I'd love to hear about them. I discover lots of bands by just looking at who's coming to town or touring with acts I enjoy. Maybe a single thread for just smaller tours or something?

 

Generally I post in the band/album thread but there are so many great shows I know you would like
Basically when the emperor x shows get announced you should go, trust me, hah

 

I'll keep an eye out for Emperor X.

I created a thread for people to post about lesser known tours. If you're ever so inclined...

Tour - Smaller Tours (lesser known bands)

 

Has anyone gotten the fan pre-sale code for this yet? Starts at 12pm

 

i assume this too. ugh. I don't wanna go; maybe the new location will be better/cheaper/more worth it

 

They are playing Shaky Knees (May 12-14) in Atlanta.

 

I was just coming here to ask this. I think it starts at 11 though.

 

I really wish they weren't playing Echo Beach here. Ticket prices are always so jacked up there compared to if they were to play at a club. Just looked into it and Ticketmaster has the price range listed as $52-$72.

 

So Phoenix dropped off the tour? I'm really bitter. They were the reason I jumped on tickets so quick.

 

When were they announced for this? I can't find any information on that

 

Seriously? I doubt they'd be billed under The xx.

 

They were on the Facebook event page and confirmed by the promoter.They have since removed their name and confirmed the Phoenix is not part of the show.

 

Was it a one off date or a radio show?

 

No, it's just a regular date of the tour. Also, I wasn't surprised to see Phoenix billed lower. When they were here last (Summer 2015) they played a much smaller venue than the one this tour is hitting.
