TURF CLUB
Night Moves, Carroll, etc.
Did you know that the St Paul’s the Turf Club was remodeled? I believe they have expanded and added a restaurant area, so now you can dine and watch a concert. I am hoping they make the stage better or upgrade the sound….
Although this was listed as a Turf Club Grand Re-Opening, there was already a grand re-opening show on August 28th, which was described as “cleaner” and “better smelling”. Let’s just hope.
I suppose for the second grand re-opening Turf Club show is with Night Moves.
Details below:

TURF CLUB
The Jayhawks
This was a surprise, The Jayhawks show at the new Turf Club is sold out, even at the higher-than-usual ticket price of $35… Still that’s a small price for some people to catch this band at a small, intimate setting.
Opening up the show is Rich Mattson and the Northstars.
NOTE: This is the first of three Jayhawks shows for September, the Turf Club is the warmup show, before their two big First Avenue show on September 5 and 6th.
Also, the Jayhawks are soliciting their fans to make up their ultimate setlist for the Turf Club show.
09/05/14 First Avenue (with Two Harbors)
09/06/14 First Avenue (with Trapper Schoepp)
Look for the band to do a full 2014 Fall tour in support of their reissues of Sound of Lies, Smile and Rainy Day Music.
Also worth noting, that this upcoming tour will feature their 1997 all-star lineup of Gary Louris, Marc Perlman, Tim O’Reagan, Karen Grotberg and Kraig Johnson.

VARSITY THEATER
Garfunkel and Oates
I haven’t checked, but I’m pretty sure this Varsity Theater show for comedy duo Garfunkel and Oates is sold out.
Hot off the heels of their comedy television show, which sort of reminds me of a girl version of Flight of the Conchords, the group is currently out on tour. While I still think G&O are still funny, I think their television show is seemingly all about sex, sex, sex…. and it’s not really funny.
Tour dates:
09/05/14 Minneapolis, MN Varsity Theater
09/06/14 Chicago, IL House Of Blues
09/27/14 San Francisco, CA Cobb’s Comedy Club
10/04/14 Seattle, WA The Neptune
10/16/14 Los Angeles, CA The Avalon
10/18/14 Madison, WI Barrymore Theatre
11/14/14 Cincinnati, OH Bogart’s
11/15/14 Indianapolis, IN Egyptian Room
11/21/14 Tampa, FL David A. Straz Jr. Center
11/22/14 New Orleans, LA House Of Blues
12/06/14 Boston, MA Wilbur Theatre
