More on Sigur Ros

Per the comment left by a reader, the promoters and band are trying to reschedule the Sigur Ros show in Tijuana to sometime in September. Just in case you don't read Spanish.

Sigur Ros Postponed

Word on the street is that the venue, promoters, and tour management of Sigur Ros are trying to find another suitable date for the Sigur Ros to make up the show that is being cancelled on Sunday, so hang on to your tickets.

In the meantime, no excuses not to grab your tickets for Indy Jam. Chula Vista is just like going to Tijuana, after all, right? (That is supposed to be 100% funny. I am Chula Vista born and bred and I'm damn proud of it.)

Sigur Ros Canceled?

Rumors are that Sigur Ros canceled their appearance in Tijuana that was scheduled for Sunday night. If you have info, please e-mail me with confirmation.

Update: Trev confirmed on X1FM that all of Sunday has been canceled, due to some problems getting the band's equipment to Tijuana. Looks like all you ticketholders can make it to Independence Jam after all. I will post refund information when I track it down, but seems to me that people who bought a 3 day pass are probably screwed. If I hear any different, I'll update via Twitter.

Update 2: I'm gonna rescind the "confirmation" as I now hear things are still trying to be worked out. I have a really hard time believing that equipment can't get from Iceland to Tijuana in 4-6 days. Sigur Ros is also scheduled for two other dates in Mexico this week. No word on if those dates are affected by this snafu, but I'll continue to update if I hear anything.

Sigur Ros in Tijuana

I don't remember who I was talking to about the Sigur Ros show coming up next month in Tijuana, but here's the link for tickets. It's for an event called D-Town, a three day event in Tijuana with MSTRKRFT performing on June 6, Guns N Bombs on June 7, and Sigur Ros on June 8. It's also an art festival, so if you're inclined to cross the border, check it out.
