[quote="sonic3305"](Chicago) It really pissed me off when I a) saw at least twenty Naruto headbands in the line and b) when they came out afterwards chanting "A CEN CEN!" and threw out panda toys.

I mean, I got to love pillows stuff largely thanks to FLCL, and I don't hate anime, but I wish we could get more than just the "NYAR-RU-TOOO" crowd at Chicago shows.[/quote]

Lawl, I remember the time seeing a guy cosplaying as Naruto, running the Chicago Marathon.

Actually they were swhooting "ACEN Ten" since this past year was their tenth anniversary. And as much as I love going to ACEN, I sure as hell don't want to see the pillows there again becuase of course, everybody only knows them for their FLCL stuff except for a few people.

My spring break is the week of the 16th-23rd of March. I'm planning on going to Japan Nite in Boston (which is on St. Patrick's Day, so if my Italian dad tells me I can't go into Boston because of all the Irish drunks I'm not going to listen rofl). Anime Boston is on the final weekend. Maybe they'll end up there... I hope not though; I want them at a venue, but they closed down a good venue in Boston over the past year. :(

Look for an announcment for the LA stop of THE DELICIOUS BUMP TOUR IN USA 08 in the next couple of days.

The El Rey Theatre
March 13
Tickets through Ticketmaster.

It's not posted yet, so you are the first to know. The El Rey is not that big, so it should be a sell out.

The New York show appears to be in the Blender Theater at Gramercy, ticket sales start this saturday. http://www.livenation.com/search/interm ... 20pillows/

damnit, they picked such a bad day. March 21 is the start of Anime Boston, guess ill leave Boston Thursday night, catch the concert Friday. Leave New York on Saturday 6am, arrive in Boston 9am and dress up for the con. gonna be a hectic but awesome weekend.

I'm doing the same thing I think, unless they do a Boston show. :(

Awhile back Yoko told me they'd plan on a Boston show, so hopefully they'll do it this time around.

I was hoping for a Troubadour show this time around, but The El Rey wouldn't be so bad. The 13th is way soon though. That would blow if I had to miss this show too. 3 years man.

so is it possible to get a ticket at south by southwest for the day the pillows are playing ONLY? or do i have to pay the whole 600$ thing

[quote="psykodrak"]so is it possible to get a ticket at south by southwest for the day the pillows are playing ONLY? or do i have to pay the whole 600$ thing[/quote]Wow 600 bucks? That's a lot of money. I think I'll wait for them to be at a regular show and pay way less. i would totally fly to see em, if I had too.

There are three types of admission - the $600 badge lets you get into whatever you want through the entire music festival, first priority. They also sell a wristband for about $130 that lets you get into whatever you want in the festival, but priority is after badge holders, and it's a pain to get unless you have a friend in Austin. At the club's discretion, they will admit individuals on a particular night for a cover fee like normal but you are lowest priority so you better get in line early or make friends with the manager.

This is awesome. I'm deffinately hitting up the NYC show again, and GETTING AUTOGRAPHS THIS TIME!
