RTP-area local music and culture

["Tim Flaherty" <mrdorkesq AT gmail.com>]

Went to Pullen Arts Center at noon today and they have no tickets for the
Arcade Fire Superchunk show, they said never had any and they were all given
away at the booth at the wake county board of elections.

According to the folks working the table, there are still some at the
planetarium.

Plenty of Smith Center rally tickets though.

On a side note.  I was asked to post that the Connells are playing a benefit
for Josh Stein at the Pour House on May 1st.

Here is the info:
