I love Busta Chimes
This band is fun IMO but I don’t understand their meteoric rise. Maybe it’s the costumes? Like I’m surprised how many people like what I would consider to have pretty niche appeal. I wish Secret Chiefs 3 got this kind of attention, I mean they have costumes and microtonal instruments too!

I imagine my dad pointing at Angel Of Poutine from his post in the afterlife and saying “See? I told you!”

106Had this issue too. They sold out in seconds. Would like to see them if I could, but not enough to battle scalpers and botsiembalm wrote: Thu Mar 19, 2026 3:22 pm Had the early access password for their August show in Portland. Clicked the tab at 10 am and was notified that I would have about a 4 minute wait, but the pre-sale had sold out by the time I got in. Hoping for a better result tomorrow. Meanwhile, out of curiosity I had a look at what resellers wanted and couldn't find anything for less than about $300. I like this band and I'm looking forward to their second album in a couple of weeks, but if I don't get general sale tickets tomorrow, I'm not about to pay that.

107I did get one in the general sale. Selected two tickets and two tickets weren't available. Went back and selected one ticket. Straight general admission, too. Guess I got the very last one.GuyLaCroix wrote: Sun Mar 22, 2026 1:39 pmHad this issue too. They sold out in seconds.
