Sufjan Stevens

SteM

Don't know if anyone on the board here is into him but he's playing the Douglas Hyde Gallery in October if you're interested - €12.

Greetings From Michigan was one of my favourite albums from last year so i'm really looking forward to this.

Excellent post, SteM - do you have any more details on this, particularly the date?

I've check entertainment.ie, sufjanstevens.com and douglas hyde gallery site to no avail.

Got this from the DHG yesterday. Don't know how many they place holds though....

Well, based on the information you just gave me, I rang the DHG and booked two tickets.

With my two tickets I now hold an entire 2% of the entire seating capacity of the venue, according to the nice lady on the phone!!

Nice one!! Owe you for that!

So if you sat on her, you'd only take up 2 percent? Thats one big lady...

Must get some tickets. I have 2 of his albums and they're bloody good. Thanks for the post!

Sorry TmB, your post isn't as random as it looks, I went back in and edited my sorry sorry type before I noticed you'd replied.

That'll teach me to read before I submit. Typical newbie, eh?

Latest update: I've now booked flights back from Barcelona to catch this gig - see how you've gone and changed my month of October, SteM??

And the whole thing ties in nicely with DEAF too, which is sweet!

SteM

100 tickets?! This place must be pretty small! Looking forward to it too, I have to admit.

without sounding too ignorant but who is this Sufjan Stevens?

Here's a sweet 9.7MB tune for you to download, to get a taste:

And here's a link, to a review of my favourite album of his, on Pitchfork Media.

He's really good I must say but looking at the date I'll more than likely be away. Oh well, can't get to them all.
