She mentioned that she was only doing a limited number of dates with Coco (three dates), and the Turf Club was her last date. This was also her first venture as a solo artist.

Of Monsters and Men at Fine Line (March 29, 2012)
We saw them when they just had one album, at the Fine Line in 2012 and said, “Of Monsters and Men sounded so happy to be here in America. They mentioned how they did the tourist-thing, seeing the Mall of America. There are also a lot of them on stage; I think I counted seven of them. Many of their songs contain “hey! hey!” and yes, it’s catchy. Since the band only has one album, My Head Is an Animal, most of the songs on the setlist were from that album. They did throw in The Cure’s “Close to Me” cover, which in typical Of Monsters and Men had a massive build up at the end. Not on the setlist is “Sloom”, which was an encore song squeezed in between “Your Bones” and “Lakehouse”.”
Note: The ticket limit is strict. Any attempt to exceed the posted ticket limit per customer or household, or to game the system in any way, will result in cancellation of orders without notice. There is a transfer delay for all tickets prior to the show.
Arny Margret at Palace Theatre (July 12, 2025)
Arny Margret to open. We last saw her at the Palace Theatre in July 2025 and said, “She may never be an extremely gregarious sort on stage, but the poise and a sense that she knew she belonged on that stage was a palpable step up from March. And these songs deserve that strength as they are really quite beautiful. Margret is a voice worth seeking out and her music exudes a depth that belies her youth. The reaction from the crowd was genuine and positive and although in a little different direction from the headliner, I think it was close enough to speak to the crowd. She ended with an efficient set of just over thirty minutes. Having seen both her Minnesota shows, I’ll be on the watch for her next performance and how she continues to develop. I found out after the show that Margret had a fever and had left immediately after the show, which is quite impressive given how well she did. Get better quickly!”

Stephen Day at the Fillmore (September 29, 2025)
Stephen Day to open. We just saw Stephen Day in Sep 2025 and said, “A nice patter from Day showed his comfort and helped keep the audience bouncing along to some very radio friendly sounding numbers. There was a smooth ease to Day’s vocals, even as he did some relatively complicated runs, and I appreciated the artistry in making it seem simple. All This Space got the sing along (of the title words) and Day and the band had the loudest and fastest tempo song of the set, with another funky keys riding underneath. The flashing lights may have been a bit much, but there was a certain pastiche to a certain type of 70’s rock song. Playing the title track to their recent album had Day laughing in delight on the opening guitar intro. Stephen Day ended on Dancing in the Street, with the heaviest guitar song and letting him close strong.”
