You should. His show is incredible.

No joke, it's one of the best shows I've ever seen. It should be especially amazing in that intimate old Broadway theater.

It's looking like the wife & I will have to go to NYC for a family/baby visit in January, so we may get to see it again. Here's hoping.

How many times will Annie Clark go see this on Broadway?

Thanks for the recommendation. It's actually in Boston - they're doing like 25 shows in September within walking distance of my work. So so many tickets are available from the box office, I may be able to get a deep discount on the secondary market for a weekday show.

I think it's worth whatever you have to pay, but if you can get in cheap on a weekday then no reason to miss it. The Broadway run prices are stupid high, but that's to be expected I suppose. Enjoy!

Even face is not outrageous for the upcoming Boston ones. $100 (after fees) for the worst seat in the house, and $150 for decent ones. One cold probably avoid some of the fees by just buying straight from the box office.

Don't you dare call Talking Heads a jam band. I know you aren't, but tread lightly

I like jams.

Jams are great; it's completely perplexing to me how dedicated jam bands (barring the Dead, of course) seem to consistently produce the least interesting ones.

It took me this long to watch True Stories, and I am an idiot for waiting.

It’s kinda like if Wes Anderson made Pee Wees Playhouse.

Good call. Welcome to the party, McP

OK I bought a ticket and am going tomorrow night.

Yes! Enjoy

Show was really good. The band/cast was amazing.

For those of you who know the show, the crowd last night was embarrassingly bad at saying names. Cringeworthy.

You could say that for 5 different clips from SMS.

Do you run out of Kleenex, paper towels, and toilet paper at the same time? You know it's true.
