hint, hint: Garbage fans might wanna go to the band's website and try to find out about -new- tour dates. they might also wanna do that before 9 am this morning. (if not, then you'll get your chance with the general public saturday morning.)

ps. i'm majorly excited about this.

update, 9:06 am

sorry about the hush-hush nature of the above post.

i just got myself TWO TICKETS TO THE GARBAGE SHOW IN MONTREAL !!!!! :D
April 24 is the date.

that was a fanclub pre-sale. sale is open until tomorrow, i believe, though, so if you're a fan, just sign up to the fanclub ($20. but worth it for the peace of mind alone if you ask me) and you'll be able to get your ticket fix.

official ticket sale is saturday, noon.
check out the link above for info.

Garbage released 8 north american tour dates through their newsletter this week. i missed it but a friend called me up yesterday afternoon to tell me Musique Plus were gonna give away tickets to a Garbage show in Montreal. i was like, wtf? i didn't get the tickets but i looked around and, lo-and-behold, they'd put out tour dates for what looked like a small promo tour ... and Montreal was right there :) amazing. thank you, Garbage! i can't believe this. they didn't even get a proper show for beautifulgarbage here (only opened for U2) so it has been a full 6 years since i last saw them headline their own show. and the show is at the Metropolis, one of my favorite venues.

so, get back to me if you're going to the show (or to any of the US shows, really :) this is too cool.

their site mentioned that the tour will begin in Fall 2005.
that's a long way off; which makes this promo tour -and getting tickets to it- even sweeter :)

ps. i finally got my Fanny & Alexander Box Set in the mail yesterday. this is a good week :)
