Is there really a theater in Boston called the Wang theater? I'm not mature enough to go there.

Paul Simon suffers from the same disease as Benjamin Button. Every year he gets smaller and more hairless, looking more and more like a little baby.

His "Under African Skies" show at BAM with featured artists such as David Byrne was amazing.

Last album (with Eno!) was crappy.

Motorhead was beyond loud last night.

^^^^ Thanks for the info little kid. First time seeing Motorhead?

Too bad, I always liked Motorheads acoustic sets better.

Expect little to no tickets to be released if this show is being promoted buy the Bowery Ballroom. For those that dont know they are holding back tickets for all their shows recently and selling them on the secondary market. People should stop putting all the blame on scalpers when if you look closer you will find half of the tickets are being resold by the people doing the shows both promoter and artist.
I just want to put this out there before everyone complains about no tickets being available

Paul Simon was great in Annie Hall. I'm glad that this whole music thing has been good to him.

Besides LCD Soundsystem, what other events have led you to believe this?

At 2:14pm
Adele at the Beacon and United Palace Theatre. Here is a perfect example of it. The ticket limit for the United Palace show was 4 tickets. On a couple of brokers sites some is selling 12 tickets together. Even the best brokers cannot pull 12 tickets together in the same row even with automated machines on a 4 ticket limit. Especially if the show was as popular as this one was. It is just impossible unless someone on the inside is selling these. Plus the same person is also selling 6 tickets in rows DD, EE, and FF.
So tell me how does one person get this many of the best seats in the house when everyone else barely got 2 or 4 at best?

Motorhead comments:
1st - Person who went to NJ show last night (I did too, it ruled).
2nd - Condescending douchenozzle who doesn't know anything about (1) seeing Motorhead.
3rd - Trendy loser (in other words "clever" or "witty") comment that isn't funny to begin with.

Paul Simon is should be one of the most respected artist of our time. I you can't project respect onto the man, rather keep your mouth shut (or your blog clean). Im a 21 year old who loves good music, and that exactly what Mr Simon does. Big-up for Paul Simon!
