Spiritualized at the Vista. Innovative to stage a gig in a movie theater (a really nice one at that)...but at $37 dollars a pop, is it any wonder there's a lack of posting on these shows? Geez.
yeah that price is what kept me away. i might pay $35 to see them at the troubadour or spaceland (plugged in) but not acoustic at a place where you're just not sure about the house sound.
I totally regret not going because everyone I've talked to who went said it was amazing. They did a medley of "Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space" that turned into "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You"
