Thanks Roger.

Looks like another bust for me. Close enough at RedRocks, but thats a Volleyball extravaganza week at our house. All month and up to Halloween... wouldn't miss the volleyball for too much. You just dont get the chance with your children once they move on and grow up.

And I agree, I would choose kids over a show any day - Red Rocks would be sweet though

Hey they are playing Charlotte. I'm not a huge KOL fan, but maybe I'll grab my dad a pair for Father's Day. It will probably be a fun time, especially with some lawn seats.

Indifference71

Ehhh, I dunno why they always play in Tinley Park when they come to Chicago. That place is a dump...

pjpitt89

Am I missing something or was this not announced on their website? I can't find any info about the presale

Johnny Abruzzo

Fucking Camden. Worst concert venue in Phila area. :evil:

yeah, I'll be probably doing lawn for the WPB show - trying to get my cousin into them since he lives in Ft. Lauderdale and I always spend about a week down there during the summer. All he knows are their hits. I sent him their first two albums this weekend though and he's diggin them, so it's lookin good for me

:thumbup: Cemented it for me too! Found out in Bon Iver is playing in NY (Brooklyn) on the same date, but the KoL/BoH combo edges it out for me!

-decodified-

sooo... they'll not be at PJ20...

kol annnd boh get me innn that!

It's not on this list, but I just heard on the radio today that they're playing Cincinnati in August as well. I'd really like to see BOH again but I'm not much of a KOL fan, so I can't really justify the $45 just to see the opener. My kids love KOL though, but I'm still holding out for PJ to be their first concert haha.

eeriepadave

tempting to go like both bands but saw KOL last year at the same venue in Camden. Would like to see BOH though :? Hopefully they'll come to philly soon headlining in a smaller place.

I'd pay $45 just to see BoH

I love BOH, they are by far one of my favorites but I don't know about that. I paid $20 to see them in a small club a couple months after they opened for PJ and it was amazing. It's just hard to justify twice that price for half the amount of time. And the small club show blew away the 2 times I seen them with PJ.

red mos

so tempted to get tix for this. Saw KOL's free show here in Houston and it was great. Love BOH. May have to spring for this. trying to save money for PJ and Foo Fighters shows though.

I know what you mean. I saw them in a small club setting a couple of weeks ago (and also saw them open for PJ at MSG2) - and the club how blew MSG2 out of the water. Still saying that, they are an incredible live band. Them opening sold me on the KOL show

That's just to settle a property dispute.

Nice to see the 2 separate threads for the KoL tour. Keeps the negativity out of this one.

Until I start hearing they are playing longer sets I won't be paying to see this band. Shame because they're great live. Just don't want to fork over all the money to see an 80 minute show.
