Well, all things must come to and end. And in this case it is Ari Herstand's Minneapolis residence. You may recognize his name from the countless fliers around the campus area - he has certainly played a lot of shows. Ari is leaving MPLS to pursue other endeavors in Los Angeles.
Before Ari leaves, however, he is having a major going away party at his favorite venue - The Varsity Theater. The list of performers is pretty extensive: ReadyGoes, Roster McCabe, White Light Riot, The Alarmists, Cedar Avenue, Gabriel Douglas, Joey Ryan and Sarah Winters. Varsity Theater tickets are on sale now for this show. It is important to not that the Varsity Theater twittered today about how there are a very limited amount of Varsity Theater tickets left for this show.
Ari also posted a very long post on his blog regarding his reasons for leaving Minneapolis. They seem valid and I understand with some of what he is saying. But for the most part, you are going to have haters in every music scene no matter what part of the globe you go to. Not everyone can be pleased, there will always be a negative nancy. If you would like to read his letter to mpls you can do so here.

Quiet Please tickets
It is time for another installment of Quiet, Please! featuring Mark Olson from Minneapolis' beloved Jayhawks.
Minneapolis has received a lot of love from the newly regrouped Jayhawks these past few months. As you may have previously read or attended, the Jayjawks had a three night stint at First Avenue at the beginning of the month. They are also playing at the Basillica Block Party this year (this Friday and Saturday) and now Mark Olson has signed on to perform at the Varsity Theater's 'Quiet, Please' on September 12th. This show will be solo and acoustic so concert goers should not expect another Jayhawks reunion.
Varsity Theater tickets are on sale now for the 'Quiet, Please' performance on Sunday, September 12th. (That will also be prime Vikings tickets season!!!)
As you may remember the 'Quiet, Please" performances are very low key shows. The audience sits on couches and chairs around the stage in the middle of the Varsity Theater. Because of this unique layout there are less Varsity Theater tickets for these shows. If you think this Mark Olson show is something you would like to see be sure to buy your Varsity Theater tickets asap!
