awesome! It's a bit pricey but they know how to bring it--not surprised by the price actually. I spent 20 bucks to see them at first ave in minnesota a while back... worth every penny. Phenomenal band and absolutely EPIC live show. So glad to see a band of this caliber coming to Des Moines... can't wait.

any word on openers????

Not into the music so much, but I have seen them live and they were pretty great.

At least they are getting decent shows at People's Court. I wish Alkaline Trio would guarantee nothing but old songs when they play, as I might go to that if that were the case.

Streetlight Manifesto.
They're actually good gypsy inspired music.

Man Man is awesome. Streetlight's cool, but calling them gypsy inspired is kind of stretching it. It's ska-punk pretty much through and through....

As for Gogol, I suppose I could [maybe!] understand not liking them as a matter of taste. But to say they suck... I'm just baffled. That's beyond laughable. For how much you're [Joe] in to music, sometimes your picks for what's great and what's terrible are utterly absurd.

Gogol Bordello = Seriously, one of the best bands on the planet right now. By far.
And it has nothing to do with bieng "faux-sophisticated" or whatever the hell you're trying to say.

Des Moines will be lucky to be graced with their amazing presence....
