This is not really breaking news, but just in case you haven't heard it elsewhere already, this Sunday, November 16, the Get Up Kids will reunite for their first show all together since July 2005. The show is still listed as "Pre-Thanksgiving Party" on the Record Bar's site, an event name that has effectively deterred all but a few local pilgrims from inquiring about what's actually happening that night. The reunion concert was supposed to be kept quiet until tomorrow or something like that, but it's pretty much out there by now. So, put down that ear of corn, Fanny, and be thankful for TGUK.
Get Up leader Matt Pryor tells Back to Rockville that the show is kind of a precursor to next year's 10th anniversary of Something to Write Home About, which may or may not include a CD/DVD deluxe repackaging.
Tickets are $10 and sure to sell like turkey tits.

HERE'S THE DEAL+
We encourage you NOT to come in from out of town for this show unless you are friends or family of the band. The MAN-KIDS have told us that there will be more shows in 2009 when the 10 Year Anniversary Issue of Something to Write Home About is released.
Only 200 people will be admitted to the show. There will be no advance tickets to deter scalping. Doors will open at 7pm.
The restaurant will be open from NOON-5pm but the room will be cleared at this time and re-open at 7pm.
Camping will be strongly discouraged.
Please pass this information on.
