Anyone in the PA or surrounding area, the National are going to be at Messiah College (a liberal arts Christian college of all places) near Harrisburg, PA this Saturday night (May 3) Just found out about this the other day. Tiks are $15. I will be there along with a newbie fan (brother in law)

Great show in a small venue, basically the college gymnasium. They played for about 1 hr 20 minutes. Stuff from Boxer, Alligator and 2 songs from the Cherry Tree EP. Crowd was receptive. A lot of them, especially the students didn't know who they were. Though I think they won over a lot of them. I saw a pile of people buying copies of Boxer after the show. Nice to see them in a small place before they go out on their enormotour with REM.
