scottheisel Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I'll just cut and paste what I wrote on altpress.com because I'm lazy. Anyone here gonna go? That Red 7 show would be so much fun, that venue is tiny as hell. Rise Against have been forced to cancel tonight's show in Austin and tomorrow's show in Houston due to illness on the part of singer Tim McIlrath. However, in true "The Show Must Go On" fashion, support acts Alkaline Trio and Thrice have booked themselves at new venues in both cities for the same date. Detailed information on each show is below. Once again, the following shows are Alkaline Trio and Thrice only: 10/26 @ Red 7 611 E 7th St.(corner of 7th and red river) Austin TX 6:00 p.m doors, $18 10/27 @ House of Blues 1204 Caroline Street Houston, TX 77002 6:30 p.m. doors, $16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suburbanargyle Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Shit, if I had known about this earlier I definitely would be going up for Alkaline Trio. I think I've been to Red 7 for SXSW Japan Night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
controlthebleeding Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 yea, i heard about this last night... i was pissed, because i ordered my tickets around an hour before i saw that they had canceled. Now i have to wait for a refund. I personally wanted to see Gaslight Anthem, so im kinda bummed. This is gonna be a really good show though. I think Red 7 only can pull in around 300 outside and even less inside. So it'll be memorable to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 26, 2008 Author Share Posted October 26, 2008 Yeah, I dunno why Gaslight isn't playing these rescheduled shows, it's kind of weird for them to just be sitting there for two days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Had I known about this before I would have gone to the Houston date for the extended Thrice set, but it's too late for me to plan this out now... Oh well, I've seen them once this year already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddieruckus Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 gaslight probably wants to sleep, ya know from slowing down their songs live and changing vocal melodies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
controlthebleeding Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 They (gaslight) jumped on the bill at last minute... so i missed them. I didn't plan on going, then the update came up and by that time the line was way too long, so i wouldnt have been able to get in.. IM kinda pissed, but oh well... shit happens...fuck my life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdwell Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 is Red7 the venue where, like, you walk in from the street and walk all the way through the bar and comes out the back w/ the staged area that is kind of covered and the little ditch/creek behind it?

enjoyadrian Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Man that place is pretty tiny for these bands. Probably was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That actually describes a few places.. but i think you are thinking of RED EYE FLY though. Eric: Na, the show at MUSIC HALL got cancelled. The Red 7 SHow didn't end till around right before 10pm. I would have totally gone to one if that were the case. Now i have to wait till the next time they come around..damnit!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're thinking of the red eye fly. yes, that's it...obviously different place...nevermind. Went there once for a SXSW showcase a couple years back and was thinking it was faaaaaaar too tiny for any show like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannibal Club Actually not relaly a gig at all. more like 2 songs...then that was it..... All i remember is it was after a show at Liberty Lunch. But to give you a idea of how small it is, imagine the front bar and stage at Red Eye Fly before you get to the hallway by the restrooms. or if you've viisited BEERLAND you'll get an idea.

kirbs84 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 so what time does the Houston show start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhamm212 Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I was at the Austin show last night and being a big Thrice fan, being able to see them in such a small place and without a barricade was pretty sweet. Gaslight was good as always and Alkaline Trio had a pretty sweet set, as well. Fun show for sure. Had gone to the Crime in Stereo/Polar Bear Club/Swellers/Broadway Calls show there the night before and that was outside (with about 20-25 people) and so I figured the Thrice/Alk3 show would be outside, too, but it was totally inside and it ruled.
