Chicago Gets Googled
We admit we were stoked earlier this week by the news that Ryan Adams would be doing a show at The Black Orchid. However we thought it was a little weird that ticketing information for the show seemed spotty. It was listed on WXRT's site ... and then it wasn't. And on Ryan Adams' own website, it was the only show with no info on how to get tickets, and now it has completely disappeared. Phone calls to The Black Orchid only met with a message saying they had no information on the show. What's up?
Well, it turns out The Black Orchid is closed so Adams and his merry crew of Cardinals are scrambling to secure another room in which to play. There's no word on whether tickets will actually go on sale tomorrow though Ticketmaster, even though they were listed as doing so. We think it'd be a little hard to sell tickets to a show when you don't know where it's going to be or how many people you call them too.
If Ryan really needs a place to play, our basement is nice, and we'll even pay for the P.A.!

I'm pretty sure that Ryan would prefer to play my backyard.
Thank you Chicagoist! My boyfriend has spent all day telling me how silly I am to a) think I can get tickets to this show and b) not be able to figure out how to get tickets to said show. Keep us updated!
I think the reason Ryan Adams can't find a place to play is because his music isn't any good.
I don't get The Black Orchid. I have heard it's closed at least three or four times and then suddenly it's open again and hosting shows. WTF?
i like ryan adams - and this coming from a straight male.
where the heck was the black orchid?
anyway, won't be hard i'm sure.
I'm sure this is all DeRogatis' doing!!!
