The National add shows

Thu 14th Oct, 2010 in Local News

Earlier this week The National’s sideshows sold out in the blink of an eye, leaving fans Australia wide crying into their hand-knitted cardigans.

Smelling their fans tears of despair The National have announced two more dates in Melbourne and Sydney, both of which go on sale from Midday tomorrow. The gigs will be the first time the indie five-piece has visited our shores since they were here for the Sydney Festival in 2008.

The National have announced two additional shows for their January tour:

Friday 7th January – The Enmore, Sydney
Saturday 8th January – The Enmore, Sydney – Sold Out
Sunday 9th January – Palais Theatre, Melbourne – Sold Out
Monday 10th January – Palais Theatre, Melbourne

The additional shows go on sale tomorrow, Friday 15th October

Hmm, missed out on the first show, but this is the same night as N*E*R*D. Annoying!

what why do you have it listed in your upcoming gigs then?

MorningAfterboy

MorningAfterboy said on the 14th Oct, 2010

Because I planned to go to it? The second I saw they were coming I was set on seeing them, I just didn't get the money together on time :(

But seriously,everybody knows I'm a fan of MONSTROUS POP JAMS but even on that front N.E.R.D. have only recorded two or three good songs and three monstrously crappy albums.

My friend was playing Seeing Sounds in his car the other week and I gave serious thought to strangling myself with my seatbelt.

ThatDude123 said on the 14th Oct, 2010

You know as well as I do Stefan that friends don't let other friends listen to seeing sounds

MorningAfterboy

MorningAfterboy said on the 14th Oct, 2010

What the hell? Seeing Sounds was awesome.

Stefan Beck said on the 14th Oct, 2010

Especially that song where Pharell yelled "IT'S OVER" nine thousand times in a row.

Really want to swap my Sunday tickets for the Monday now! Reckon there's any chance Palais/Ticketmaster would do something like that?

Jose Cuervo

Jose Cuervo said on the 14th Oct, 2010

Buy a ticket to the monday show then sell your sunday for cost i guess?

Dylan29

Dylan29 said on the 14th Oct, 2010

Was thinking this but it is five tickets, so a small loss would equal a big one pretty quickly.

jhf92

jhf92 said on the 14th Oct, 2010

i wish, but unfortunately there'd be zero chance of that happening. the on sale was today anyway, so all the good seats for monday are gone.
