JAMC are playing a club up here in toronto, not a hall, a club and they want $60 plus service charges ... seriously
Are you frakking kidding me ? Half of me is amused by the balls of that ticket price the other half is seriously insulted. Spirtualized are playing the same place for $30
Last time I saw JAMC was on Halloween at the Skydome with Spiritualized + Curve + Pure and I think we payed $30
I would not spend $60 to see ANY band PERIOD !
$60 for JAMC !

Whoa. $60 Canadian is about £40 UK. That's ridiculous, especially when JAMC aren't exactly noted for their long sets.
The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.

Bizarre. Here in LA they are playing a horseracing track, which is usually reserved for happy-go-lucky feel good Friday night acts.
"Enjoy exciting thoroughbred racing under the lights, followed by a live concert. On concert nights live racing starts at 7:05 p.m. Concert begins shortly after the last race at approximately 10:30 p.m.
$10 Admission prior to 8:30 p.m."

Playing Hong Kong for $495 HKD
I'm starting to think insurance may be the reason. The first time I saw them here well ... it was everything we read about.
LOL it made the wikki

What they don't mention is the complainants got a discography and free tickets to their next gigThe band's dangerous reputation culminated at a gig at the RPM club in Toronto in November 1987, when after being heckled throughout the gig by a group in the audience, Jim Reid thrust his microphone stand towards them, hitting one on the head and slashing another on the arm Jim was arrested and spent a night in jail, before being bailed to return the following February. He was subsequently given an absolute discharge after agreeing to give around £500 to a Salvation Army charity and apologise to the complainants
End of line.

Well, it's probably also due to their asking price, as a well informed source () has informed me?
I'd happily pay quite a lot to see them though. But only if it's allowed for the audience and the band to trash the place

I've noticed that the band hasn't announced any gigs in Glasgow either. It Would be great to finally see them.
