Constructive Summer: Philly (and Asbury Park) (July 26-28)

[charlie]

I'm going to all three of these. Thrilled to finally get to see the 6pc THS. 

Hoping for some cool openers. Hop Along is from Philly and is off that week until the 28th, so a Frances set (or full band show) would be great. James Alex from Beach Slang would be fun. Would love Ted Leo or Kevin Devine acoustic sets on Saturday.

Is there definitely going to be an opening act? I haven't seen anything about one. I am actually hoping there isn't, there is another good show in Philly the 26th (Off With Their Heads), doors open a half hour later, and has an opening act, and is only a 5 minute ride from Union Transfer, I am hoping to go to both shows.

no idea; I was just hoping there would be because some of these other residencies have had some treats.

So I have a huge favour to ask.  My wife and I just bought tickets to NY from central Canada for our 11th anniversary.  I am a huge THS fan, and was elated when I saw that they were performing nearby during our trip.  However, unsurprisingly, the tickets are sold out.  If anyone happens to not be able to make it, or know where tickets may be able to be purchased (for either show), I would be forever indebted.  I could wire the funds through paypal, etransfer, cash at the show, or carrier pigeon! 

[I'M THAT GUY!]

I’m looking at AirBnB’s in the area and it’s not bad, but it might be more fun to bunk with some fellow fans. Anyone else looking for a spot?

[buildsomething]

Was able to get a couple tickets to Asbury Park! I'm beyond excited. They must have released a limited amount. If anyone is looking, there are still a few available.

[danlauer]

I have one extra Union Transfer 7-27 ticket if anyone needs one-just looking to get my money back-email [e-mail]=SOLD

Openers: Beach Slang Thursday, Worriers Friday. Saturday TBD.

[I'M THAT GUY!]

Is anyone driving from Asbury Park back to Philly? I've got a flight out at 7 am and trying to find a public transportation method to get back in time is turning into a bit of a beast. It would be a huge help if I could cop a ride back with some other fans. Happy to chip in for gas.

[doctoracula]

That’s very awesome that Worriers are playing

[john k]

Saw Worriers earlier this year. Solid punk band. And Beach Slang are really really good live

[john k]

Culture abuse playing one of the SF shows. Their album is one of the best this year

[arilddk]

If anybody's driving from Philadelphia to Asbury Park on July 28th i would love a ride! Can help pay for gas and any other costs.

Or if anybody knows about a nice public transportation option i'm all ears. All i could find was a 3-4 hour bus ride, which seems a bit extreme.

At this point, I'm looking at renting a car for the day. I'll let you know if I follow through.

I accidentally purchased 2 Friday tickets when I meant to grab Thursday tickets (can't go Friday).

Does anyone have two for Thursday they'd be willing to trade or just want to purchase Friday tix at face value?

Ticketfly support has refused to answer their phone for a week and not responded to any emails.

At this point I might just buy one for Thursday and eat the cost for Friday.

[Rattlesnake Gospel]

I have two to unload for Friday at Union Transfer (website lists it as sold out). Face value. Email me: anthonylalota (at) hotmail (dot) com.

[buildsomething]

Ugh, something has come up and I can't use my tickets to Asbury park. I have two I can sell at Face value. Email me at dwaldron @ outlook. com

[rockinman]

The band still allows audio recording right? I last taped them at Harrisburg's Abbey Bar quite some time ago. Could tape both nights in Philly, let me know!

[dmwhalen]

I haven't seen tapers/tapes in a while. That doesn't mean that we wouldn't enjoy your recording.

[howard]

I'm sure that many of us who can't be there would love it if you can tape any of the shows.

The only small issue might be that the new songs - where the band have not yet really maximised the value - could be slightly sensitive.

I'd respectfully suggest hooking up with brendan or camie via these boards/twitter and taking the temperature that way.

I'm sure your request will be considered sympathetically.

[I'M THAT GUY!]

Just bumping this message- I rented a car to get from Philly to Asbury lanes and back. I got room for 3, if anyone needs to get back and the public transit isn't sufficient.

[steveo41ths]

Anyone up for some wild speculation on who Saturday night's opening act is going to be? So far all that's been said is "you won't want to miss it!"

When they had a surprise opening act at last year's final Brooklyn Bowl show it wound up being Frank Turner who played an incredible acoustic set and then joined the band for Constructive Summer. Frank just so happens to be in NYC this weekend. He has a show on Saturday but it's an afternoon booze cruise gig that starts at 1pm...He'd have plenty of time to make the 90 minute drive down to Asbury Park once the boat docks. Probably not going to happen but man it would be amazing!

[juanacorns]

Brian Fallon opener? Pumped for tonight, we getting alot of the Stay positive album?

[I'M THAT GUY!]

The doors are open and the mood is high. Great venue.
