A Northern Irish indie band that broke on blog-era guitar hooks getting a headline night at Madison Square Garden is its own story, and they are marking it by playing Tourist History end to end. The support bill is not filler either: Phantogram, STRFKR and Friendly Fires would headline mid-size rooms on their own. If your 2010 was made of those records, this is the reunion show for it.
What to expect
A long night - three substantial support acts before the headliner, so the 7pm start is real rather than nominal. Two Door Cinema Club play Tourist History in full and then move through later material. Expect a singalong crowd and the Garden's usual arena production, with the venue sitting directly on top of Penn Station.
Good to know
- Three support acts precede the headliner, so a late arrival will cost you an entire set.
- Madison Square Garden sits above Penn Station, served by the A, C, E, 1, 2, 3, LIRR and NJ Transit.
- The Garden enforces a small-bag policy and clear-bag rules for some events; check before you leave home.
- This is billed as the band's first headline show at the venue, so demand skews high across all price tiers.
- Tickets are sold through the venue and Ticketmaster; resale prices on secondary sites vary widely.
