The Oblivians...
The Oblivians

The Oblivians, whose upcoming reunion and solo shows we outlined previously, have added another date for the NYC area. In addition to the free Scion Garage show at Knitting Factory on July 1st (RSVP is now closed), they'll be playing a July 2nd gig at The Irish in Kearny, NJ (a mile away from the Harrison PATH station). Andre Ethier opens the Scion show, and for New Jersey Andre & his old group The Deadly Snakes reform to open the show. Tickets are on sale.

Other recent shows at the Kearny Irish American Association include Ted Leo, Titus Andronicus and Screaming Females.

Think the Knitting Factory show will turn into a full fledged Deadly Snakes set? I can't make it to the show on the 2nd.

there's no proof the full band deadly snakes are actually playing that july 2nd show - chances are it's a misprint and it's just a Andre Ethier solo show too...

I am not lame! I am the world's greatest Oblivians fan and a stalwart opponent of anything POTUS does!

It won't be a full Snakes lineup - just Andre, Andrew Gunn and Chad Ross for both shows.

Who from Brooklyn Vegan drew the conclusion that the Snakes were reforming to play this show? Nobody ever fucking said that. In your own words it was said that Andre Ethier was opening the show. I believe you made your own stupid free association and lied that The Deadly Snakes were reforming. You are stupid. Fuck you.
