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.

Re: Gypsy shit.


Man Man is the best.


Yard Dog Road Show comes close but they are more of a vaudeville thing.

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....

Holy shit you are stupid.
