Atlanta retired after 89

So it's basically a combo of the PR band and the "proto Rev"?

Eric Leeds is in the rehearsals too

Hmmm Where did you see the pics at? I hope Eric ends up at the shows, but I can't see fDeluxe playing without him.

Then why not Atlanta Bliss and Miko? They were essential to the sound of the extended Revolution. Oh I forget,Eric hangs out with the Melvoins,Miko and Atlanta does not.

Atlanta Bliss retired...
Miko was off the radar, he performed with Sheila E and he has never appeared with her again, he was the Family's guitarist and he never appeared with them.
I was told by one of the musicians that after he left Prince's camp he disappeared, did Miko ever reach out?

Does anyone know how it generally works for getting into the venue? I snagged a VIP ticket so I know you get in early but do you still need to get there super early and line up? Never been to First Ave. thanks for any info you can provide.

Everyone who has a ticket gets in, so you don't have to worry about that. How early you want to get there depends on how much you want to hold a spot on the floor to be close for the show.

I don't like standing around all day and night so I never do that, but some folks really enjoy that kinda thing.

Isn't Miko living in Ibiza now? There's a few recent clips of him there on YouTube.

Yeah I guess I'm also wondering will there be a seperate line for those who shelled out for the VIP. Hopefully there will be some info forthcoming. Or I'll just drop by there during the day on Thursday.

Ah. My best guess would be no. I believe the main benefit of VIP is the early reception. Once the doors are open for all there isn't really a difference in what ticket you have.

So if you have VIP but don't show up till general admission are able to enter then you will likely stand in line w/everyone. I could be wrong, though.

I'm just going off how past shows handled VIP that I went to there. There were separate lines and entrances for VIP. VIP had access to a separate area upstairs that served some light food and we were able to meet and take a photo with the Revolution. I'm not sure if that is how this one will go though. Best to contact First Avenue and ask them and let us know.

Yeah I reached out to First Ave and here is what they said,"Thanks for reaching out! Early admission is up to the artist's management, but is usually about an hour before doors open. (Doors for The Revolution are at 8:00 PM.) You should receive an email closer to the day of the show with more details on what to expect." So hopefully we'll hear something soon.

Thanks for sharing!
