Live Nation trying to get rid of the Gramercy Theatre?

get up kids bitches!

As long as it still exists tonight, that's all I care about.

Seriously, I'm so excited for tonight.

"Excellent street presence"

Please real fans tonight and no hipsters....I gotta enjoy the show like it was 1999. New fans please stay away!

I'm a big fan of this venue.

Tonight is gonna be my first GUK show!! I just got their cd yesterday and loved it so much I bought a ticket off of Craigslist. Gonna be so rad..Anyone know what time they are suppose to go on? I plan on getting ripped at the bar across the street then headover about 5 minutes before showtime and push my way up to the front row! I plan on wearing my Yankees cap (backwards of course) and a plaid shirt so if anyone else from BV is there , please say hi..and buy me a drink!!

GUK FTW!

Gramercy Theatre is meh especially if you're standing towards the back.

you will not be missed.

Anon 9:29 - Clearly I might be oblivious to its occurrence but have TGUK been one of those bands who amassed a larger fan base since they stopped playing & putting out albums? I never got a sense that was the case. Not that I care if there are 'new fans' at the show but I guess I'd be surprised if that made up a lot of the crowd.

As someone who is a total whore for 90's rock, why have I never heard of The Get Up Kids until this show was announced? Did they have anything radio-friendly that I would remember from 10-12 years ago??? I just read their Wiki page and NOTHING sounded the least bit familiar.

unfortunately you are NOT a 90s rock whore. sorry

anyone know who these "Motzah’s Ballzes" are?

Only went to one show here ever and was unimpressed. I mean it makes sense to me that bands would choose the better (and slightly less corporate) Bowery Venues over this place.

@ 10:08

thanks for the help, dick

how have people never heard of the get up kids? you people living under a rock?

I like this venue. It sounds great and is down the street from my office. I hope whoever gets it continues booking Metal.

Tonight's set times?

Doors 9pm
Motzah’s Ballzes 10pm
TGUK 10:50pm

It’s really hard to fathom how this venue has failed time and time again over the years – no matter if it’s being marketed as a cinema or live music joint. I mean, the location is great and accessible and there’s a population of college students in the neighborhood. I’ve never been in the place, to be honest – what’s it like inside?

Saw IAMX there and I thought it was a great show!

they weren't "90's rock"...they were "emo"...and no, not emo emo, "emo"...

can't wait for tguk!
anon 9:56 is right... i dont think tguk have expanded their fanbase since their breakup... i don't think there will be "hipsters" or young kids there.

It's too bad...I think this is an awesome venue - intimate on the floor, epic from the seats, great lights & sound. Certainly way better than Highline, anyway. But Live Nation's corporate idiocy ruined any chance they might have had of getting it off the ground...not like they really stood much chance of competing with the Bowery Ballroom anyway, especially on 23rd Street, but it deserved to be much more. Hard to picture it ever catching on now, though...not surprised they're looking to pull the plug.

Please explain how Gramercy is better than the Highline? you are completely insane.

motzah's ballzes is a code name for a secret opener
