OK, So This Just Keeps Getting More And More Impressive
Another impressive show to add to the growing list of jaw-droppers the Door's been booking to its stage lately: The Eagles of Death Metal.
No, seriously. On Friday, December 12.
Add that to the list that already includes Ice Cube, Fishbone, King's X, Plain White T's, Job for a Cowboy and 3oh!3 in the coming weeks.
Oh, and full credit where it's due: It's venue owner Russell Hobbs and manager Joel Fruth who are booking these shows apparently. Despite what I may have said in my column a few weeks back, Stephen Benavides has had very little to do with any of this.
Whoops! --Pete Freedman

Tickets to that EODM show are really cheap too. $12 I think. Since I just caught em opening for the hives though, I'd rather just catch the Ice Cube show. But those tix are f-ing expensive.

Posted On: Friday, Nov. 21 2008 @ 11:58AMnot that its any of my biz, but what is the "booker" doing if not "booking" the shows?
Posted On: Friday, Nov. 21 2008 @ 12:08PMgood or bad booking, it is still confusing as fuck when they write 'prophet bar show' at the door and etc.
everyone thinks they can't drink, so they don't want to go. and no one wants to drink on one side of the venue, finish it, then go to the other side. FUCKING SILLY.

wha?????????
Posted On: Friday, Nov. 21 2008 @ 2:49PMNot that surprising--Homme rarely tours with EODM.
Posted On: Friday, Nov. 21 2008 @ 2:55PMI didnt have to much to do with those specific shows, but you forget to list the 30 plus other shows that I did book in 2008. No hard feelings, I left the prophet after they failed to pay guarantees to major nationals...and blamed it on me....but of course no one knows this....
Check out the shows @ The Lounge on Elm St., the Curtain Club, The Boiler Room in Denton, and coming shows @ Club Dada termed "Benavides Presents"
