[quote="Ridz"][quote="Ciidric"]oh WOW, I really want to go see the NY show. It's only 10 hours from my humble home here in Canada. Only problem is, I'm young - I don't know if they will let me across the border. That would be incredible though.[/quote]

(yeah, am new)

Hahaha, I know your pain, my friend. I live in Massena, NY. The only reason people come here is by mistake.

On the note of why the pillows are also playing in mostly 21+ bars is that (this is only a theory on my part) in Japan, most of the fans of the pillows are university students or older. The younger crowds have never heard of them. Even if they watch M-ON, they still probably wouldn't know who they were. They hear the music, label it as 'crappy and depressing' and move on to their Ayu and their Nobody Knows. When I went to Namiki Junction, I was the youngest person there. There was even this random 30 year old woman who kept telling all of us that she was thirty, and the woman I went with was 54! (But she worked for a radio station). Ah, I'm rambling. Anyways, yeah. Coughy cough cough.[/quote]

you know i think hes right cause in the thank you very much i like you busters video i saw a very old looking woman in the crowd.

I'm a girl, but whatever. Also, Sawao asked us all how old we were, and most of the people in the room said "daigaku-sei" or random ages. With the exception of random 30-year old woman. After that he said "Yeah, that's what I thought. Most of the people that listen to our music are 20(hatachi) or older." And then one girl was like "Yeah! I'm 17!!" Which again prompted random 30-year old woman to tell us all her age. (-_-;)

[quote="Shizoku"]Well if you live close to it and its 21 + I dont think it would hurt to try and get in.[/quote]
That's exactly what I'm going to do. I'd only be losing $8 on a BART ticket to SF, so it's worth a shot. I still want to go to a show that I know I'll be able to get into though.

"Huh, I'm not old enough? Here, check my other ID. It's under the name 'Andrew Jackson'."

At the show that you went to was the crowd overwhelmingly female? When I saw the Pillows the whole venue seemed to be filled with women in their twenties. There were like 4 men at the show. I though that was kind of interesting.

note: also 21+.

the show i went to was a good mix of guys and girls. but most looked to be in their twenties, though there were a few older women.

Now if we could only find some info on a Chicago show.

ok....i finished checking all the LA venues and the few that i know of in the OC area. as well as one in corona.

NOTHING!!!

here is a site that lists most of the LA venues that they might play.

http://www.casenet.com/

check it again to make sure. might as well check the dates BEFORE SXSW too...

who said it was 21+?

[quote="schmatzee"]who said it was 21+?[/quote]

it says at the very top of the home page.

I think I'll help jedi out with the OC/LA venues.

After checking about a dozen places here and about 20 places in LA, I haven't found a damn thing mentioned or hit about the Pillows, Noodles, or anyone they're preforming with coming here yet. I checked the offical venue sites that list events up to next fall . . stll nothing, but the crusade moves on.

I just want to confirm... I emailed the Knitting Factory and got no response... but what is the age deal? All ages?

has anyone confirmed the 21+ age w/id for the SF show?.. or does this [u]strictly[/u] imply that kids CANNOT go with their parents? [desperate now.. the show's during my spring break!! gah.]

the crusade continues...
