Ari Herstand tickets
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!

Varsity Theater tickets
Varsity Theater tickets have just went on sale for a few popular shows that will be taking place at the Varsity Theater.
First off, is the super annoying Sara Bareilles. In case her name does not sound familiar let me refresh you memory "I'm gonna write you a love song, because you need it, because you asked for it, I'm gonna right you a love song and annoy the living daylights out of you!" Sara is doing an exclusive show for KS95 and you can only get Varsity Theater tickets for this show through the radio station. I believe Rob Thomas headlined this show last year. The show is this Wednesday - so you better look fast for Varsity Theater tickets.
Also announced was the Upright Citizens Brigade on November 5th. Now, I am not sure what this live show is going to include - I would assume maybe some stand up comedy? Varsity Theater tickets are on sale now for the Upright Citizens Brigade.
Also just announced:
9/12 - Mark Olson
10/25 - Matt Costa

Mark Olson tickets
Did you miss the Jayhawks three night stint at the First Avenue mainroom last weekend? If so, no need to fear, you have another chance to hear some of those jams on September 12th at the Varsity Theater when Jayhawks singer/guitarist Mark Olson performs his. The show is is solo, the rest of the Jayhawks will not be performing. This show will be a hot ticket, even in the wake of three headlining Jayhawks shows.
The Jayhawks, all founding members included, were present for last weekend's reunion shows at First Avenue. Each show was praised for its set list and live performance. Local acts like Romantica and The Strange Lights.
Varsity Theater tickets go on sale this Friday for the Mark Olson show. Expect Varsity Theater tickets to sell fast for this event - last time Gary Louris had a show at the Varsity Theater tickets sold so fast Gary Louris had to add another show.
So, if you are a die hard Jayhawks fan this is a pre-fall show you do not want to miss!

Varsity Theater tickets
Long time no see - but the Twins keep this music girl busy, busy these days!
Since I have last reported, there have been two major announcements as far as shows at the Varsity are concerned. Two of my favorite bands are coming to town: Heartless Bastards and Autolux.
The Heartless Bastards were in town during the winter opening for Wolfmother, however, I had to miss that one due to a steep ticket price and holiday funds. Wolfmother was at the State Theater, so I am much happier that I get to see them at the Varsity - where they belong! Varsity Theater tickets are on sale now for their Tuesday, July 27th show.
And as for Autolux I last saw them at the 7th Street Entry. The Varsity is quite a jump for them, I am hoping Autolux has a new album out that they can focus in on some new fans. Autolux is amazing, they have such a unique sound that should be enjoyed by all. Autolux will be in town on August 18th, Varsity Theater tickets went on sale last weekend for the show. Autolux will be touring in support of their new album (the first in many many years)Transit Transit
I can't wait to see these guys! See you at the shows!
