That little band called Arcade Fire just added a second date at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley on October 3rd, which means redemption for anyone without an American Express card or fast enough clicking fingers to get in on their sold-out-in-one-minute Big Sur show. Hallelujah!
We found out that show sold out so quickly because Eventbrite (Henry Miller Library's ticket provider) accidentally opened the ticket sales a half hour earlier than the scheduled time, during which about half the 400 or so tickets were snatched up immediately. Burn!
The October 3rd tickets go on sale the same day as the October 2nd show tickets do, August 22nd. Alt-Americana band Calexico opens.
