Jenny Lewis & Johnathan Rice

Indie darling and Rilo Kiley frontwoman, Jenny Lewis explains: "As a woman, the older I get the more comfortable I feel writing about sex and singing about it, whereas in my late teens and early 20s I wouldn't have dared. But now I feel comfortable enough where I can start writing about sex -- not necessarily about my own experiences, but the sexual lives of others. And the somewhat deviant sexual lives of others." [The Music Slut]
Rilo Kiley 's new album Under the Blacklight is out Aug. 21, 2007, and it's around then that they'll be touring for a few months. All tour dates haven't been announced yet, but quite a few of them are out there already, including September 22nd & 23rd @ Webster Hall - $25.00 each. All tour dates below....

If you are a Rilo Kiley fan: Quit yer bitchin and get a job (or a better-paying job, if you already have a job).

If you, like me, are not a Rilo Kiley fan: STFU. No one's forcing you to go.

If that was an attempt at a joke: Fuckin hardy har har. Now STFU.

Yes It is Grand Ole Party, my friends.

Get ready for them.

Ok...listen people.

If you go out in Manhattan to a bar, you will likely spend WAY more then $25 in an evening.

I'm tired of people bitching and moaning about concert tickets. New York is unlike any other city when it comes to being able to see basically a great band/artist every night and not be spending $$$.

Rilo Kiley are amazing live and if you think $25 is too much money, then just shut the fuck up.

would it have been funnier if i said chocolate? cause that's what i meant to say. BV commenters, demonstrating their legendary ability to take a joke as usual!

"noticed that saturdays show lists a 6pm door time, sunday lists a 7pm door time...perhaps an extra opener on saturday?"

prolly cos saturdays are a club nite at webster and they want to control traffic inside/outside of the venue. sweet!

Please go back to your dumbass blog with your ugly ass friends.

Thanks.

not to mention witty and intelligent.

I wish Jenny Lewis was still uncomfortable writing about sex. Some of the lyrics on More Adventurous are dowrnright cringe-worthy. I'd rather her sing about baseball cards like the olden days.
