The National - Cherry Tree Club

[swamp]

I love it. If you like these popular 20 year old indie rock bands, you’ll like this equally popular 20 year old indie rock band.

 

[Memo]

I am on the Edgefield Promotions email list and I just got an email from them regarding tomorrow’s presale, sounds like the venue is doing their own presale as well.

Anyways, in the email it has a small write up on The National including this…

…I would like to meet the person who likes even one of the other bands listed there that is Unfamiliar with The National. Their musical taste would have to be microscopically narrow.

If you like…
Lyricism (Fleet Foxes), Production (The War On Drugs), well dressed frontman (Father John Misty), and 5 cuties on stage (Death Cab) !?!? lol

If you like Sad Dad Music, I think you'll dig The National's vibe.

Who is this is for? Is there a person who likes War on Drugs and/or Fleet Foxes who is unfamiliar with The National? I want to meet this person. Are there a lot of Father John Misty fans that have never heard a National song? I get that maybe some folks might like Death Cab and not care for The National but surely they’ve tested those waters by now.

If you like artists who collaborate with Phoebe Bridgers, Taylor Swift, Bon Iver, and Sufjan Stevens, I think you'll dig The National's vibe.

This isn’t what we want to hear but the more I think about it…

That RIYL might be for young people who aren’t 40. Lol. And who are hearing these old bands for the first time now.

You forgot the part of the email that said (their caps, not mine):

PLEASE DO NOT SHARE OR POST THIS CODE AS IT WILL ONLY MAKE TICKET ACCESS HARDER

Does the venue have seating? The 3 shows out here typically do not, they are more like open parks than amphitheaters. (though @hatfieldpdx did state that they now do some limited assigned seating at Edgefield)

Good news – by the looks of the Edgefield website, both shows appear to be general admission. Hopefully, they realized that the experience was greatly diminished for most folks.

Removed! Sorry was posting for those who sometimes don’t get the email

Ditto. Though it’s probably been posted to The National’s Subreddit multiple times by now. Still I suppose we shouldn’t let Reddit set the bar.

Anyone who quoted the original message should probably edit it out, too, maybe?

 

[TenderLovingKiller®]

Maybe delete the code? I imagine this thread comes up when googling/looking for codes?

There ya go.

I suppose you’re right though, I would imagine if they’re streaming one of those artists on Spotify, it wouldn’t take too long for The National to show up in their algorithm.

That’s George Michael Bluth…

Heading to Denver on 8/11...never been to the Mission Ballroom. Looks sweet.

It’s a great venue - I’ll be there too!

I wish it wasn't because I want more benefit for my membership but I could really care less. I think it would be awesome if cherry tree got in 30min to an hour early to get their merch and a better spot but I'm being greedy

 

[My Neighbor Brotoro]

Even though I'm not that excited about the venue, I managed to pull a GA ticket for MSG during this morning's second Cherry Tree presale.

Got my MSG GA's, so did three friends and my daughter's BF. So thankful for Cherry Tree!
