You're gonna get what you deserve... if what you deserve is Nine Inch Nails

Posted by Kari Watson in Come See, Come Saw

Surprise! Fans of Nine Inch Nails not only get a new album which had been kept under wraps until the past couple of weeks, but they are supporting that album with a tour which comes to the Saddledome on November 25. Remember when Queens of the Stone Age opened for them here a few years back? See how I momentarily made this about Queens of the Stone Age? Tickets for this show go on sale at TM on June 21 at 10am. And now to relive my youth (in my mind, I'm at the Warehouse drunk on vodka paralyzers...)

Get ready, your summer is about to get really busy...

I love freaky coincidences. This morning when I decided to put on my Queens of the Stone Age t-shirt, I had no idea that they would announce a show for August 8 at the Stampede Corral (this story is 100% true). Tickets for the QOTSA love-in are $34.50/$49.50/$55 plus s/c and are on sale at TM on May 24 at 10am. Squee!

Loretta Lynn! Did you ever think that you would get to see Loretta Lynn live? Here's your chance - Wednesday, October 23 at the Jubilee, tickets $39.50/$55/$85 plus s/c on sale at TM on May 24 at 10am. Who doesn't love the Coal Miner's Daughter? Crazy people, that's who.

The John Butler Trio will hit MacEwan Hall on Saturday, August 10, with tickets $32 plus s/c at Ticketfly.com.

The Banff Centre has a truckload of amazing shows planned for the summer, a few … Read More
