Okay, I need to write this all out. Because there is SO MUCH GOING ON that I can no longer keep track. Being busy is awesome, of course. But this is starting to border on the ridiculous!


8/8 - Irish Fair! [livejournal.com profile] stardiver is currently flying back home and will join us tonight!

8/9 - Irish Fair again!

8/9 - except that I'm skipping out on the Irish Fair to see Idina Menzel @ the Fitzgerald. NO ONE will go with me. Sad. So seriously, I have an extra ticket if you want to go. Free. It's in the 2nd row. Otherwise it'll just go unused. taken by [livejournal.com profile] seimaisin!

8/10 - Irish Fair! And The Fuchsia Band is on the main stage, finally!

8/15 - Possible Oscar and other geek bands @ Matty B's in Mpls

8/22 - Gaelic Storm @ the Minnesota Zoo - already have tickets!

8/27 - Eight is Enough Obama fundraiser @ the Turf Club with Tapes n' Tapes and P.O.S. - this one is kind of iffy. One one hand, P.O.S.! On the other hand, it's a Wed night and I need sleep.

9/6 - Graham Colton @ the Fine Line - just bought my ticket!

9/9 - The Dandy Warhols @ First Ave - eh? maybe? anyone want to go? [livejournal.com profile] duckduck?

9/12 - Great Big Sea @ the State Theater - we have tickets in the 2nd row! =)

9/17 - The Cruxshadows @ the Varsity - apparently they got in there before everyone decided not to play the Varsity anymore

9/18 - Kasey Chambers @ the Park West Theater in Chicago - okay, so this is a big maybe, but I want to go SOOOOOO bad! I was so crushed when she canceled her US Tour two years ago! [livejournal.com profile] duckduck and I may road trip for this. Needs more discussion. It's been decided. We're going!! Tickets have been purchased. YAY!

9/29 - WWE RAW @ Target Center with Big Daddy - dude, I haven't been to a wrestling event in years

10/16 - Cobra Starship, Forever the Sickest Kids, Hit the Lights & Sing it Loud @ the fucking Cabooze - we already have tickets! I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS!

10/17 - Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers @ the Varsity - they also managed to get into the Varsity, YAY! We already have tickets for this one too.

10/21 - New Kids on the Block & Natasha Bedingfield @ the Xcel - yes, we are certainly going and we already have tickets! we still need to make our puffy paint shirts though.

10/24 - Family Force 5, Danger Radio and some other bands I've not really heard of @ fucking Station 4 - tickets go on sale tomorrow! I'm super excited about this show! I am not excited about that stupid bar.

10/24 - also, there will possibly be a Half Ass Jack gig in Hastings that night, so we'd head to that after shaking our asses to FF5

10/31 - The Academy Is... & We the Kings @ the Cabooze - yes, ON HALLOWEEN! It's going to be awesome. No ticket info yet.

11/7 - Wicked @ the Orpheum - so I have all these tickets to see Wicked and no arrangements for anyone to go with me. So, you know, let me know if you're interested. I might take my mom once though.

11/18 - Rise Against, Alkaline Trio, Thrice & the Gaslight Anthem @ Myth - I don't think we're 100% sure about this one yet? Decision made!

November 18 - 2008
Pantages Theatre

710 Hennepin
Ave., Minneapolis, MN

Might be interested in Wicked, but it really depends on how much the tickets are.

I'm pretty sure they were all in the $90-100 range, after all the TM fees. I know, expensive.

Jeeebus. Yeah, a bit too rich for my blood.

I await your ringleading when it comes to the fair. Just tell me when to show up and where to meet you.

Also j and I will be missing out on SK6ers. I'll be running in Duluth. :( Also we have a wedding to go to the Saturday after Kasey, but we'll be home by then, right?

Oh! ha ha...I didn't realize I was in charge for tonight. I'm getting there early (5ish?) so just call or text when you get there! The rest of the weekend is kind of up in the air.

Oh man! That's too bad. The SK6ers show is supposed to be awesome since it's their anniversary tour.

Yep, that would be the plan. Drive to Chicago on Thursday, drive home on Friday.

Whoops, no, when I said fair I meant State Fair, not Irish Fair.

I'll get back to you about Dandy Warhols, k?

From: [identity profile] leighblack.livejournal.com
Right! Okay, one weekend at a time. Maybe we can figure out the State Fair while we're at the Irish Fair tonight. =)

Yep, no problem. I'm kind of on the fence about it, since it's like $25 and there's so much other stuff going on.

Exactly when do you plan to sleep? :) Aw, man...if we were still in Minneapolis, I would so go see Idina Menzel with you. I love her.

What is this sleep thing you speak of?

I love Idina too! I'm pretty excited about the show.

I want a full report when you see her.:)

What the hell, if you're offering for free, I'll go see Idina with you. :)

Sure! We can wave to [livejournal.com profile] jmasterflash from our better seats. ;)

I was planning to run home to shower before the show because I have a feeling I'll be all stinky after spending the day outside. But we can discuss arrangements and such tonight.

My question is, is there anything at the Irish Fair tomorrow afternoon that we're dying to see? The dance instructor guy, maybe - but he's teaching again on Sunday. None of the music acts are really desperately calling to me. So, is it worth it to go on Saturday, or should we just use Saturday afternoon to get shit done and go back to the Fair on Sunday for dancing and Fuschia Band?

There's nothing I'm dying to see, but I'm meeting a friend there for a little while, so I'll be going anyways. I probably won't go until like 2pm or so. Make an appearance, watch a little dancing and get out.

Date: 2008-08-08 05:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] seimaisin.livejournal.com
Ah, got it! I'll probably skip tomorrow, I've still got stuff at home I want to catch up on after last weekend. So, we'll just have to figure out when to meet for the show tomorrow night.

Date: 2008-08-08 05:44 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] leighblack.livejournal.com
The show starts at 8pm, so meet at the Fitzgerald around 7:30? or I can pick you up? Whatever works for you.

From: [identity profile] seimaisin.livejournal.com
I can meet you there, sounds like a plan! :)

Wow, you are a busy little bee.

TAI! On a day I'm not working! And don't even have classes! I'm thinking I'm going to be at that one.

YAY! That would be fabulous! That show is going to be so much fun.
