Music It's Official: Pavement to Play Central Park... In Just 53 Short Weeks

Posted by Mike Conklin on Thu, Sep 17, 2009 at 11:02 AM

Rejoice, khaki-clad former college radio DJs, for the rumors are now fact: Pavement have announced plans for a series of reunion shows in 2010, one of which will take place at Cenrtal Park on September 21. A presale for tickets begins here at 10am tomorrow, and the password is Zowee. The official on-sale date is the following Friday, September 25th. Of 2009, a full year ahead of time. Crazy. Tickets will also be available at the Nokia Theater box office and at Earwax Records in Williamsburg, for those of you who hate service charges. Good luck. And don't sleep on it, because Matador Records assures us that "this tour is not a prelude to additional jaunts and/or a permanent reunion," which is almost definitely bullshit, but still...

UPDATE: Sound of the City is reporting that tickets will be priced at $38.50 and that Earwax will only have 100 available. So, you know, you should probably get on line now.

Tags: Pavement, reunions, no one makes plans this far in advance unless it's to get married, and even then it's totally unnecessary

This episode even had a penis. So it was very special indeed.

Sometimes broadcast TV is good! No, really, it is!

And that might actually be a small step forward.

No, really, he's good. Look at all these photos of his paintings that he tweeted.

Some of these songs are happy and upbeat. Most are really depressing.

Here's to life in the double digits.
