Just an fyi there were $76 Iron Blossom tix on Stubhub this morning. $40 fees but hey what are ya gonna do. If more pop up for that price I’ll probably snag

Did you end up snagging?

[chisholm]

Still haven’t; I have a friend whose apartment overlooks the venue so we might just watch some from afar. Ticket site fees really grind my gears lately and I can’t get past the ~$40 Stubhub wants to take on these tix

Anyone here know romo IRL? He signed up for a draft and we can't get ahold of him.

Looks like the Megadeth and Peter Frampton shows at VACU Live were recently cancelled because of stage structural issues. Yikes.

I wonder how much longer that venue will stay open once the Riverfront one is operational

They've already announced 2 shows for next year at VACU Live. I'm personally wondering about the Live Loud Concert Series at Brown's Island and Music at Maymont. I've heard rumors about the latter not returning next year.

I like having maymont and Lewis ginter as occasional concert spots, I hope they continue to put on a few each year. Browns and the new amphitheater may be a bit redundant, though. Google says 16k capacity on brown’s but they obviously sell out way before that number, maybe 5k? Not a ton of artists that are a slam dunk booking for a 5k venue but aren’t ready for a 7k amphitheater

[Douglass]

Turns out I can’t actually do shows every night, so I have another free ticket if anyone wants it.
VW at the Anthem tonight, 10/1.Let me know if so.

[dreadpirateroberts]

According to Style Weekly, it sounds like the new Richmond amphitheater plans on being open in May and would likely be alternating big-name shows with Ting Pavilion

[dreadpirateroberts]

First time seeing MMJ last night and they absolutely ruled. I can see why their live shows get rave reviews. Definitely will be catching them again

Thursday was my 15th MMJ show. Took a last minute trip to Richmond for it. Got some good deep cuts with Librarian and the Aluminum Park opener.

Glad you had a good time

James Blake Secret Show


Well it's not so secret now, it's at Capital Turnaround, but it was TBD when I bought the ticket. Started getting scared it was gonna be like north of Baltimore. Looks like a newish independent promoter/ticket agent working with independent venues and artists for tours. Called bside and seems promising but it's probably owned by Elon Musk or something.

It's with Monica Martin who I love - the lead singer of Phox and did an album with The Violents

excited! Expecting maybe 6-8 total nights of jam acts, 10-12 country shows, and a hodge podge for the other 10-12. Maybe a one day edm fest too

[chisholm]

Someone on Reddit claims to work for the new amphitheater and they said the opening show is going to be Chris Stapleton, which makes perfect sense to me and I’d go if I’m able to get a ticket

They said Goose and Whiskey Myers are the type of bands to expect, which probably means they’ve been booked lol.

Probably about a 5% chance of happening, but it would be dope if they got Justice and/or Rufus

Best rendering we've gotten so far

3post1jack1 any news on whether Hannah Diddlebee will play the new Allianz Amphitheater at the Riverfront in Richmond, VA slated to open in June 2025?
