subject: [ig-news] suffragate sessions tour - ny ticket info

[sherlyn's note: this message was originally sent to the indigo
girls mailing list at netspace.org.]

hey everybody,
thought you might be interested. i read that there was an unconfirmed date
in new york city for the suffragate sessions tour, so i called the
roseland ballroom and they said the date was confirmed. the show is
supposed to be on september 3rd at the roseland ballroom in new york city.
they told me that tickets go on sale july 31st at noon and they are $22.50
each and the show is general admission. they said you can get them either
through ticket master or the irving plaza box office (this is the same
venue that the virginia slam! show was held at), not trhough the roseland
box office. so, if anyone has any questions the number for the roseland
ballroom is:

(212) 247-0200 or

(212) 247-2556

hope this helps. if you want to e-mail me privately you can do so at:

cch211@is8.nyu.edu (address all lowercase)

also, when i asked, i asked for indigo girls and i think they said it was
listed under either amy ray or emily saliers, so try either way.

take care,
chloe

subject: [ig-news] summing up a couple of things

hey folks,

i thought it'd be quicker if i just summed up:

* there was a rumour that ig might be going to europe after
lilith '98.  this rumour started with a quote from the lilith
site itself.  however it appears that this rumour is false
and the girls aren't going to europe after all, at least not
in the near future.  sorry...

* tickets for the chicago suffragette sessions dates at the
riviera - apparently no information about these dates will be
available before friday july 25. i'll forward the info on as
soon as anything's posted. ticket information is already
available for all other dates except cleveland oh...

okay, i think that's it. cheers -
sherlyn

shonen knife joins suffragette sessions lineup

shonen knife has been added to the indigo girls' suffragette
sessions tour. the tour runs from aug. 19 through sept. 2,
and features indigo girls, luscious jackson's kate
schellenbach, gail ann dorsey, jane siberry, lourdes perez,
lisa germano, mecca normal's jean smith, come's thalia zedek,
and josephine wiggs, formerly of the breeders. (allstar, july
10).

shonen knife -- technically the opening act -- is the only
act on the bill who will perform their own set; the others
will all jam with one another in a revolving-girl jam session.

the japanese group is also slated to tape a segment on comedy
central's viva variety on aug. 18. an air date has not been
set yet. and, after the suffragette tour, the girls will
embark on a headlining club tour with michael shelley. the
band's latest album is happy hour (big deal, june 23) and
their current single is their cover of the monkees' "daydream
believer," for which an animated video has been created.
