Needles & Grooves

I haven't really got into Amethyst Kiah yet, but she's performing literally a 5 minute walk from my house and I need to get out more, so I bought a ticket. Got a front row ticket for like $20. Looking at the venues online seating grid it looks like she's sold like 10 tickets so far.

@KenKaniff She is so good. I saw her the other night at Nashville Sunday Night. She is so talented and deserves more credit than the gets. @soulsteprecords knows how to find them. She also went to ETSU while my sister went to school there.

It's funny...my GF just surprised me with tickets to that specific show for my birthday, and I had been looking at Ken's show for AK before getting those.. That show needs to be sold a lot better for a woman of her talent in a tiny venue.

But yeah, Isbell prices are quite high. His Boston show prices were too much for my tastes for that venue. The days of $20-30 Isbell shows are long gone, good for him really.

I big brain got two tickets to ShoalsFest where Isbell is playing both nights and it's a hometown event so it's going to RIP

Tickets have gone up and he’s definitely scalperbait now. Last show here sold out in minutes with tickets resurfacing online for 5x the price within a few more minutes. I saw him in the club/theater days, so I guess that’s gonna be good enough. Kind of a shame, but so it goes when you make the big time I suppose.

Most balcony seats were $125 dollars which is always the place the be at the Ryman. I still appreciate that he is playing 8 nights at the Ryman as opposed to playing two nights at Bridgestone Arena.

@TheThinWhiteDuke I would totally go to that if they had one day passes. The sunday lineup wtih DBT and Centro-matic is especially good.

@Corycm Yeah he is just like Sturgill. Saw them at clubs for next to nothing but those days are long gone.

Somewhat related, we kind of just grabbed what came up given the demand, never been to the Ryman (bucket list show), balcony is good? We ended up there, about 3/4 of the way back, Sec 11, not a disaster right?
