well now that is certainly interesting. And now there's back to back shows for Dec 4th and 5th (not that there's anything wrong with that)

Thanks for the post though !!

Changing the First Avenue date to make it be back to back with the newly announced Fargo show would probably be a huge savings for Dave's travel expenses, so he'd only have to fly north once instead of twice, and I doubt he'd want to be away from Karen & Eli for most of Dec, just being lonely & killing time in Minniapolis between shows, especiallysince Eli will be becoming very excited for Christmas coming up, I'm sure Dave wouldn't want to be away from him for long.

Back to back shows within about 4 hrs driving of each other (assuming decent road conditions), and more frugal travel expenses for Dave's NO/MN (and maybe Tommy's, too!) commuting... a win-win situation for fans and band members combined! Hopefully lots of the locals & fly-in fans can take advantage of the back to back shows, and hopefully SA changes up the setlist from show to show, to make it better for those attending both shows.

I wish I could manage the double header, but I'll be lucky if I can arrange & afford to go to the Fargo show.

Well color me bummed. The past 3 years I've made it to the first Ave shows when I flew back to the midwest for the holidays. That's way too early for me to make, unfortunately. Damn.

I already have my tickets because Ticketmaster tricked me into buying the printable ones. Printed tickets, how lame is that?

So I'm curious why this show still isn't listed here even though tickets are already on sale. Guys?
