Avett’s NY Eve Show On-Sale FRIDAY

Moved from the original venue to a larger one... but still guaranteed to be a sellout...

By Blurt Staff

You'd think by now that we here at BLURT are sick of the Avett Brothers - they're currently gracing the cover of the latest issue of our magazine (order copies here, hint hint...); we reviewed their I And Love And You album and named ‘em one of our Blurt Bands Of The Week; and we've been seeing ‘em on late night television with such regularity we're beginning to suspect they're in line to take over David Letterman's seat when Dave finally retires.

(Check out the video of them on Jimmy Fallon, below, doing "Slight Figure Of Speech.")

But you'd be wrong. We ain't sick of ‘em, which is why it's our civic duty (okay, fanboy duty...) to let you know that their annual New Year's Eve show, set for the Thomas Wolfe Auditorium in Asheville, NC, has been moved to the considerably larger Asheville Civic Center, and tickets go on sale TOMORROW, Nov. 21, at Ticketbastard.

Turns out the show sold out literally in minutes, leaving thousands of Avetts fans from within and without the NC region wailing, so the decision was made to move it next door to the Civic Center. A wise decision, we think. But here's a prediction: this will also sell out, so if you're planning your New Year's Eve for a Tarheel soirree, best log on tomorrow morning at 10 am if you want to see the show. (Tickets for the Thomas Wolfe show will obviously be honored, by the way.)
