I made up a rumor that Forward Russia may be the first opener for this Roseland show. Thoughts?

Though I hope Forward Russia comes to NYC to play a show, I hope it's not at Roseland. They should only play small venues where the singer can easily run through the crowd.

while I'd love to expect 06-13 to be the Philly date, I suppose it'll more likely become an additional NYC show once 06-14 sells out (as with so many other bands/tours -- most recently Voxtrot!).

Please boycott, ha...

Madonna is going to open up ... for the Arctic Monkeys ... as in perform before them ... oh never mind.

Well, I was thinking they'd play a couple shows surrounding that...like maybe a Rothko? That'd be a fun place to see them. Even more fun than Merc, perhaps.

Um, the arctic monkeys show is SOLD OUT already!

wtf?

12 auctions already

This is ridiculous.
I'm not even going for the Arctic Monkeys. They are pure media hype.
NOTE::
Craigslist tends to be cheaper than eBay..

What's funny is I'M NOT GOING FOR THEM EITHER.

I love We Are Scientists... they're fun... they actually get by only having 3 members and sounding great....

they're the better band...

it's not sold out. people are just putting them up on ebay assuming people will look their first before ticketmaster thinking it's sold out. it's 2pm now and i just ordered 2 tickets.

I just got 3 tickets myself. Keep refreshing the page and hopefully you luck out like me.

They were "sold out" for a few hours -- perhaps they had halted sales for some other reason... Yes, they are still available now.

i think mezzanine sold out, GA floor is still available

MEZZ ALMOST NEVER ON SALE ONLY 250

'we are scientists are the better band?' that is beyond laughable! why? because there is NO better band than arctic monkeys.

hate to rain on the hater's parade and hate to upset the trendy generation x, y or z'ers, but there is no other band out there (not in brooklyn, not in canada, not ANYWHERE) that even come close to the monkeys.

i'm guessing they're just too damn clever for the too trendy american 'hipsters.'

hey - there's a band in williamsburg who make music that sounds like joy division but there's only 2 people in the band and they play ukelele and accordion! let's start a blog!

We Are Scientifically Engineered To Seem Like An Indie Band With Talent

Nobody ever talked about my Ukelele band, so I HAD to start my own blog. There was no two ways about it.

We sound more like She Wants Revenge than Joy Division tho.

Is it just me, or has the hostility level in BV comment threads kicked up a notch lately?

this is so retarded its not even funny. i had the reminder set on my phone that tickets are going on sale on friday, i checked on here for my daily dose of news before i left for class, and i get back only to read and find out that the show is already sold out. unfuckingbelieveable. anyone have extra tickets & selling them for less than $75 each?

it's not sold out. try to get some on ticketmaster

darkglobe: you're a dumb twat. arctic monkeys: nice try, but you're unoriginal wankers. We Are Scientists: You Are Retards. and all of the rest of you silly shits investing more than an ass-hair of emotion, consideration and time out of your day towards these negligible zits masquerading as musicians: go start a commune somewhere, and take your shite taste with you.

I doubt the show's actually sold-out, especially considering most people were expecting tickets to onsale friday. there really is no way arctic monkeys sold out roseland that fast.

i'm guessing the majority of tickets are still gonna go onsale friday.

also, am i the only one who thinks $25 face is way too much money to charge, considering there not even that big in the states.

pete i beg to differ, they sold toronto out in a couple of hours, same size venue..

brian -
i've tried about 5-6 time to search for tickets.
none available. it wouldn't surprise me if it is sold out already. hopefully more will go on sale at a later date. i still think its retarded they moved up the date with no heads up whatsoever.

the monkeys selling out roseland quickly (absolutely NO surprise) validates all i said. "billy bonez?" musically IGNORANT, obviously.

i bet when gang of four and new order first played these shores (and i was there), billy boner would've been equally dismissive (if he wasn't just a zygote to be at that point).

melissa, sorry to hear you didn't get any. they were on sale the past 2 days and sold out last night in the early evening i think. check again friday

isn't floor better than mezz?

I think that the artic monkeys should have other dates around the world so all of us can see them, the tickets were sold so quickly that people like me were left out, lets hope more tickets go on sale????
