Hate to say but I would like the info on the flock of seagulls as well.

Allen

Anon - thanks! We're glad this list is useful.

Alex - according to the Chronicle, they should be playing Elysium on Friday. Unforunately, both the venue and official Flock of Seagulls sites are poorly updated. We'll let you know as soon as we find out more info.

alex

How do I find out about this rumored Flock of Seagulls show?

anon

just some FYI anonymous praise: the weekly lists you all do are extremely helpful---and highly regarded in my "to do" decisions. i love em !

Allen

there are at least two thursday midnight showings, but it's not listed on the alamo site -- you have to click into the online ticketing system to see them.
