West Coast Tour

Hey everyone! I thought I'd start another page on JoNew's west coast tour since we are on this fancy newfangled site now. I haven't seen Jo since the early 2007 show with Bjork, which I could barely see anyways, so there is much excitement for this tour!

I'm quite excited about the show in Oakland! BUT, being that Joanna is a very important artist to me, I think I might need to attend the SB show too. I was wondering if any tadpoles from the bay area (I live in San Jose) would be interested in making the drive with me to SB? It would be a difficult trip to make down and up alone in one day, so let me know! I figured I might as well throw that out there.

Tour Dates

Thursday, July 29 – San Diego, CA @ San Diego Woman’s Club
Friday, July 30 – Santa Barbara, CA @ Lobero Theatre
Saturday, July 31 – Los Angeles, CA @ Orpheum Theatre
Monday, August 2 – Oakland, CA @ Fox Theater
Wednesday, August 4 – Seattle, WA @ Moore Theatre
Thursday, August 5 — Vancouver, BC @ The Vogue Theatre
Friday, August 6 – Portland, OR @ Aladdin Theater
Saturday, August 7 – Portland, OR @ Aladdin Theater

You have to buy them through the casbah. The Women's club isn't selling any.

I'm still looking for a ride, too. I'll let you know if I secure one. Otherwise, I might take the train. Driving there takes about 2-3 hours, who knows how long it would take on a train.

Thank goodness! I want to go to both, but I just got a new (awful) job, and I'm sure that I won't be given off two nights in a row. I have tickets to the show on Friday, we'll see if I get to go to the other one.

Today's Tacoma Weekly claims Joanna is also playing August 9 in Seattle?! Can't be right...

"Joanna Newsom plays the Showbox in Seattle on Aug. 9 with support from Bonnie “Prince” Billy and the Cairo Gang. For more information, to listen to the album or purchase it, visit her website at http://www.dragcity.com/artists/joanna-newsom.
