Lady with the harp and tales involving bears Joanna Newsom, has just announced a very special show in London.
It's been a while since Miss Newsom graced the Royal Albert Hall but the DiS album of the yearer (with her Ys album) has announced that she'll be playing at Somerset House on Sunday July 20th.We're a bit excited about the prospect of this show in the Inland Revenue courtyard and will have a special competition to win tickets to the show in the next few days. In the meantime you can try your best to get tickets when they go onsale at 10am tomorrow (Thursday), they cost £25 plus booking fee from places like Ticketmaster, See Tickets, etc...

it
was announced a week or more ago, but good to see about tickets. Am tempted, but I think I would prefer a sit-down gig to see her again.
This pretty much
counters the disappointing lot that is the Somerset House summer line-up of gigs just before this one. Saw her at Royal Albert Hall last year and she was great.
The RAH gig, like the Barbican show earlier that year
was unbelievably sickeningly phenomenally brilliant. Didn't hurt to have Roy Harper doing a DLB of Stormcock as the support. Also didn't hurt to have third-row seats.
Probably won't bother with this one though.
sure why not
seeing Tom Waits and Joanna Newsom and celebrating a birthday in the same week is good enough for me
She's plying at latitude too isn't she?
2 gigs in one day i heard
Just bought a pair
Ticketmaster is slightly cheaper than Seetickets, but - £2.50 to email me tickets I print out myself? The same price as getting them posted? Fuck's sake.
PS
Who wants to be my date?
I
absolutely despise the music this person makes. It hurts my ears.
Why bother reading the article then?
And why bother commenting on it?
yes ticketmaster is quite a bit cheaper
wish I hadn't ticked that stupid fast ticket thing though... should have just got them posted
That picture
is terrifying. Is there any news of her doing a new record or anything?
Just got mine
very excited about this
come on people! tickets still left!
I want it to sell out so I can feel better about going online at 10:01 like a big loser and getting four tickets thinking they'd go like gold dust
i sincerely hope
my impulsive ticket-buying for this will be justified.
im holding out until tomorrow
when i get paid
Gonna wait until there's another album I think.
In a sitty down place.
YAYAYAYAYAYAY
GREAT FONT FUN!!!
Ticketmaster, Seetickets, Lunatickets???
www.lunatickets.co.uk (for postage and booking fee) seem to be cheaper than anyone however they don't seem to sell nationwide tickets? I think they just sell tickets for gigs in leeds? Anyone? Anyone?
I got some MBV tickets from See and they were delivered by some bloke in a car that looked like me dad - I wasn't full of confidence!
