Really looking forward to the Swell Season concert on Wednesday night but despite a mad scramble for tickets when they went on sale over a month ago I now have 2 extra due to conflicts - minor things like closing on a house etc...
Glen Hansard is frontman for the Irish rock band The Frames, while the Czech-born Marketa Irglová is a classically trained singer, and their music serves as the centerpiece of the surprise hit film Once (Oscar Winner for Best Original Song). The movie, which also stars Hansard and Irglová, tells a guy-meets-girl love story largely through song. Before making the film, Hansard and Irglová recorded a collection of songs together titled The Swell Season - and that wonderful music is what's on offer Wednesday night!
Orpheum Theatre, May 7, 8pm
2 Balcony seats (not together)
$47 each
Let me know if you are interested!

If I could fly out there I would take 'em!
I saw Swell Season last Monday in Portland and posted a review on my blog at http://isorski.blogspot.com/2008/04/concert-review-swell-season.html.
Also, NPR ran an interview last week. If you go to NPR’s site at http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=90093038&sc=emaf, you can hear the interview. Check it out!
