The Reunited Specials Play a Gig in NYC!

Breaking news: The Specials (minus Jerry Dammers, one assumes) are scheduled to play an all-ages show at Terminal 5 in Manhattan on Wednesday, April 21. Tickets are $30 in advance (they go on sale Friday, January 29 at noon), $35 day of the show.

(Hat tip to Bryan Kremkau at ReadJunk for the heads up!)

Urgh! Of course, I have a work-related event that I am running that very same night, so I'm going to miss this show...maybe someone could buy me a t-shirt or badge?

Perhaps there will be more than 1 date?

Here's hoping that the demand is great that a second show is added on the 22nd...

Steeeeve! If somehow you can make this, let's get the old Moon crew together for drinks before or after the show!

I can make it around 12-12:30...I'm running the Benefit at work that night, so I can't go for a pre-show drink...

We'll talk!

Any new word on the Specials show in NYC. The venue doesn't seem to have any information up, and Ticket Master has nothing listed. Do you know if Tix are still supposed to go on sale today?

Tix were supposed to go on sale today (1/29) and there was supposed to be an AmEx pre-sale earlier this week, too. See my "Whap'pen, Specials?" post (and its comments section) for more on this subject.

Essentially, there is no info about what is going on with The Specials' Terminal 5 gig, though it looks like it is not taking place on 4/21 (we do hope it will be rescheduled for another date around that time--fingers crossed!)
