Jane's Addiction at La Cita?!

Thursday, October 23, 2008

A shitty picture of Jane's Addiction fans forming a line outside of La Cita.

I just walked down to Ye Old Taco House Numero Uno to grab a burrito and was greeted by a line of people. "WTF?" I thought, "Did some film crew just get off work and everyone got a wild hair up their ass to come get a cheap burrito?" I would quickly learn the answer to that question was, "No."

Turns out, no one was in line for the cheap Mexican food, and, in fact, everyone was in line for something going on at La Cita tonight... four hours before doors would open. After questioning one of the people queued, I promptly discovered that none other than Jane's Addiction will be playing a "secret" show, way down low where the streets are littered, at La Cita. Tonight. 9 o'clock (or 10, couldn't get a straight answer). $5 bucks supposedly. Is this something set up by Dance Right, the normal Thursday La Cita gig? No fucking clue. Pretty incredible though.

My advice, get there now if you want to get in. The line was growing when I left.

UPDATE: Supposedly the show is "sold out." Here's a link to the Reuter's article: http://www.reuters.com/article/entertainmentNews/idUSTRE49M3OZ20081023

I'd also like to take a moment and brag that I guessed and told a friend La Cita holds about 400 people, according to the above article it's a 390 person capacity. [/self grats]
