Anyone know who's opening for Broken Social Scene at Webster Hall?

Don't think there's any opening bands.

So clubgoers like me would like to know -what time will BSS take the stage tonight?

(BV - Webster Hall shows s/b Jan 26-28?)

Yup that's her.
NYC gets Haines with BSS??
We didn't here in Toronto. Although Amy Milan and Feist were both present.

Enjoy the show kids!!

Damn, I just checked, and doors are at 6pm for the Friday and Saturday shows. No openers announced as far as I can tell. Will someone who makes it to the Friday show tell us Saturday folks what time they really hit the stage? Being at Webster is pain enough; let's cut down on the amount of money I'll have to drop on beer before the show!

damn toronto and new york. the only bss show i have seen out here in the canadian prairies had no ladies. none. you have no idea how unimpressive it all was. my jealous heart hopes you guys enjoy the shows.

toronto got a haines appearance at jason colletts show in dec though

I called the box office. There are no openers, and BSS should be going on at 8:30 tonight. I'm assuming it'll be the same tomorrow and Saturday, except they'll go on at 7.

Thanks Dylan. 9PM it is.

i was at misshapes until 3am and metric did not show. so we bailed. not sure if they played anytime after then.

how strict is webster about their 18+ policy. i will be so pissed if i do not get into this.

the bouncers at webster sure do look tough. i wouldn't want to mess with them.

I heard that Metric showd up and was all "Fuck this!" and didn't even go inside except for the singer chick.

I heard that BSS played Tufts University in Boston last night.

You're not getting into Webster Hall if you're underage. Fact.

Emily Haines showed up to misshapes and chilled in the dj booth for awhile...they played a nice enough remix of "Dead Disco" and she left shortly after. The music went downhill after she left, too, so she probably had some hand in deciding what was played.

If anyone has an extra ticket for the next two days, I will fly down and pay twice the ticket price...let me know.
peace

she give good head that all i know

Damn, that was a good show.

the thursday show was incredible. they played for about 2 hours 15 minutes or so i believe. came on at about 9. setlist consisted of all the good things, except windsurfing nation which they claim they haven't learned yet and another song they claimed to not know (can't remember the name).

Did they play Hotel?

Yea, They played Hotel towards the end of their Set.

The show last night at Webster was the first BSS show that I've seen, and I've gotta say, it was F'ing awesome. The first 30 mins of their set was probably the most impressive I've seen. The horns were almost as tight as the girls on stage.

Does anyone have a full setlist from last night?

so who was there? other than emily?

'all the good things' would that include Shampoo Suicide? because that would be splendid.

at one point i counted 16 people on stage. dave newfeld was brought out. not sure of the order, but i knew: fire eye'd boy, kc accidental, anthems for a at one point i counted 16 people on stage. dave newfeld was brought out. not sure of the order, but i knew: fire eye'd boy, kc accidental, anthems for a 17-year old girl, hotel, lovers spit, cause=time, 7/4 shoreline, swimmers, superconnected, handjobs?, it’s all gonna break17-year old girl, hotel, lovers spit, cause=time,

ah, sorry. what i meant was...not sure of the order, but i knew: fire eye'd boy, kc accidental, anthems for a 17-year old girl, hotel, lovers spit, cause=time, 7/4 shoreline, swimmers, superconnected, handjobs?, it’s all gonna break

the set was superb last night. loved the improv Webster Hall club beat.

...any pics out there?

I missed the first song, so if someone can add that we'd have the full setlist. This is what I had:

shorelines
fire eyed boy
kc accidental
stars and sons
major label debut (slow)
handjobs for the holidays
superconnected
cause = time
Ibi
Almost Crimes
major label debut (fast)
backyards
Anthems
Bandwitch
Hotel
Swimmers
Lover's Spit *
It's All gonnna break

* with One Love, With or Without You teases from Kevin. He made a couple U2 jokes throughout the night: "Once you've heard one U2 song you've heard them all"

They hit the stage really close to 9:00 and played until about 11:10. Incredible as usual.

major label debut (slow) = thumbs up
major label debut (fast) = thumbs down

So was there an opener last night? I'm going tonight and want to know what time to get there. As someone else mentioned, the less time waiting the better. I can't wait!!!

If they went on at 9:00 last night, they should be on by 7:30 tonight and Saturday

major label debut (fast & slow) = both thumbs up...

if you want to see some pictures from thursday's show, go to www.flickr.com/photos/lewislfowler - i was pretty far back though. however, there are some good stage shots.

it was my 6th time seeing bss (previous shows at northsix, nyu, bowery 2x, central park) and it was as good as always. webster hall's light show suits bss well, but otherwise, webster hall blows. even kevin said so as the bass came booming from downstairs up into the venue during one of the song's violin intros.

i hope to be back and see 'em saturday. anyone got tickets?

if anyone has spare ticket ill double it and pay for alcohol
...yes im desperate...

i was just on ticketweb and they seemed to have tickets for the friday show......

BSS tix for tonight are onsale at ticketweb

Last night they were releasing tickets at the Webster Hall box office. Was $25 without all the fees.

Any word on AFTERPARTY? I wanna hang with Emily!!

On a more important note, thank fuck she wasn't wearing a headband made out of and old piece of string like every second kid on the Misshapes photo pages. Go Miss Haines! Who knows though, maybe she punched someone out and stole their shoelaces in a fit of pique later on.

Seriously people this headband thing has gone too far. No to the tyranny.

I'm surprised they let Emily in Misshapes. Don't they have a 27" waist door policy?

Thanks, tio. Nice pictures. I still can't get over how great the show was. I wish I was enough of a dick to blow off my plans tonight and go again. It is an early show...

i went to the show last night and found the sound to be off. i was about 8 feet back from the stage, dead center, and the bass was overwhelming at times with the vocals too low. Anyone else notice this? What is the best spot for sound in Webster? I am going back tonight and want to hear the vocals more clearly. thanks.

Does anybody know what time BSS started on Friday night?

what's the age to get in misshapes?

yeah, what is the age to get into misshapes...i mean i know 21 to drink, but i heard they did an under 21 stamp thing...could you be younger than 18 and get in?
