www.blocparty.com has updated, The show is at First Avenue on March 30th, no word on AA or 21+, but i’d imagine AA for sure.
At least it’s not at the Ascot Room, and being at First Ave makes tickets no longer a big problem :). From what i can tell, this is definitely the biggest US venue on their tour, which is a bit of a surprise. Who knows, the album will have been out a little over a month by the time they swing through here, if it gets a good reception off the bat, maybe First Ave won’t seem so big for them at this stage.

update: First Ave updated their website, the show is 18+, tickets are $12 and The Kills are opening
