The Pretenders & The Go-Go's | Tour Dates
"The long-awaited career-spanning Pretenders boxed set, 'Pirate Radio,' will finally see the light of day March 14, a week before the band begins a brief U.S. tour in Los Angeles....the Pretenders will be the subject of a comprehensive interview March 17 at the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, and will perform the next night at Stubb's BBQ. The group will then play its first series of live dates since 2003 on an eight-date West Coast swing that begins March 21-22 in Los Angeles. Appearances in New York, Atlantic City, N.J., and London will follow." [Billboard]
"The Go-Go's were an American rock and roll group formed in 1978 They are notable as perhaps the first all-woman band in rock to achieve commercial success. They rose to fame in the early 1980's. At first they played primarily pop punk and later defined themselves with the distinct sound of 1980's rock. They have had five top-40 hits." [Wikipedia]

I was totally up for both of these until I saw the ticket prices: $50 for Pretenders, $40 for the Go Go girls. I love the Go Go's. But I don't $40 love the Go Go's.
Gunnin' for the fogies. Lame, lame ,lame.

$50 is not a lot to see Pretenders in a club setting. I paid either that much or more (don't remember how much exactly) to see them at the Beacon 3 years ago and it was worth every penny, they put on a great show.

Finally, the Pretenders' music gets remastered. Much needed.

Saw Pretenders @ 9:30 Nightclub in Wash DC
on 08-06-06. Good show. She got better as
the show went along. Original drummer Martin
Chambers in top form. Good bassist & guitarist.
Still got the voice. Still got it. Wish she
had sung, "Kid," "Precious" & "Talk of the Town"
but I guess they can't do every song or the same set every night. In support of first-ever Pretenders box set, "Pirate Radio."
