The Shins are an odd buncha. Good, occasionally great, on record. Sucky on stage, So the news that they are playing T5 at the end of April is met by me with huge yawns and shrugs.
Still, if the timing was a little better, MAYBE I'd have gone. It is April 29th, April 30th and May 1st.
Now here is the problem. The 29th is a Sunday. For the most part, I won't do Sundays. I went to that Coldplay radio City gig, right? It knocked me for a loop all week.
Then I have a Monday, which I might have done and a Tuesday which I won't.
Check this out:
Wednesday Bruce
Friday Lady Antebellum
Saturday Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I can't add a Monday on to that. Plus the very next week I have
Tuesday Florence
Wednesday Beach Boys…
And while I'm on vacationfor the following 7 days, I just feel like one more will put me over.
Plus,
T5! Ugh
Shins Live? Big deal
And finally, I bet Aly covers it in L.A. so I'm not even needed…
Amex presale today at noon, General public noon on Friday.
