The xx will be playing 25 shows in New York City during March 2014 and no, you probably still won't be able to get tickets. The band announced a residency at the Park Avenue Armory on the Upper East Side where the group will play 25 shows over an 11-day period. The catch is that only 40 fans will be able to attend each concert.
Perhaps even more frustrating is that no information has been given regarding how to get tickets. No date or time for when they go on sale is listed at the Armory's website, nor how much they'll cost. The good news, if we had a guess, is that The xx isn't going to be charging an arm and a leg. The bad news, of course, is that some bot is going to get those tickets before we do, and they will charge multiple arms and legs.
The band, which SPIN described as "notoriously shy," played a similarly intimate venue during the Manchester International Festival over the summer. So, don't count on meeting the band after the show even if there is a 16.33 (repeating)-to-one fan-to-band member ratio at the show.
