Oil Can Boyd Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I know I'm repeating myself but Neutral Milk Hotel! remphish1 - how was it? Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I know I'm repeating myself but Neutral Milk Hotel! remphish1 - how was it?It was good. Jeff's voice is very strong. Really enjoyed the instrumentation. There was approximately 15 different instruments on stage including three saws! They played for about 100 minutes which is more then I was expecting. The lines to get in for our show were ridic because it was will-call only for the whole venue. Took me an hour to get in. Elf Power opened and were good. Link to post Share on other sites
tinnitus photography Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 oof. an hour? i was expecting a clusterfuck but not that bad of a one. Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 oof. an hour? i was expecting a clusterfuck but not that bad of a one.Well maybe the Boston show will go better. Where they played in Jersey City host maybe 5 live shows a year so that could have added to the issues. Doors were at 7 I got there at 745...got in 845...Elf Power was supposed to go on 8 they pushed them back to 830 due to line issues. Link to post Share on other sites

There was a significant number of people who had hard tickets already. I was under the impression that everything was will call but maybe it was only the initial allotment of tickets sold via NMH's site. Awesome night. We had great seats (7th row, towards the center) and knew about a dozen people within a few rows of us. Funny. Link to post Share on other sites
