JAN. 19 | LOS ANGELES—It's not everyday that a band with so much buzz and star power suddenly announces that they will be making their debut in your city, but the declaration of a show in Los Angeles might not be so strange after all. Those who were on top of the news on Friday, Jan. 19, were lucky enough to buy tickets to the live debut of James Mercer's (lead vocalist of The Shins) and Brian Burton's (Danger Mouse) new project, Broken Bells, before the show sold out. Once word got out about the show at the Bootleg Theater, there wasn't a ticket to be had. Luckily, thanks to a late miracle, I secured a pair of tickets to see Broken Bells' first show.
The pre- and post-Coachella shows are coming fast and furious lately. Could this mean Goldenvoice is closer to selling all the three-day Coachella passes? Well, whatever it means, it's good for Bay Area music fans, because Echo and the Bunnymen will head north after their Coachella set on Friday, April 16. Echo and the Bunnymen will bring a post-Coachella show to The Fillmore on Monday, April 19, in San Francisco.
Tickets to see Echo and the Bunnymen at The Fillmore will go on sale on Sunday, Feb. 28, at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster. There will also be a presale on Saturday, Feb. 26, at 10 a.m. for CitiCard holders. As of now, Coachella tickets are still available, so click below and get your tickets to see Echo and the Bunnymen live this April in California.
