I love the picture where she's holding the froggie... def. one of my faves of the bunch!

My friend and I go to college in the Albany, NY area and are really big fans of Imgen. When we heard about the NYC iMegaphone show at The Box, we got really excited and bought tickets. The day of, we left around 1PM to drive to NYC so that we definitely wouldn't miss the concert because of bad weather (we had a massive storm the night before) or anything else. After a 3-4 hour drive, we arrived in the city and killed time before the show. When we got to the venue, I presented my ID at the box office and picked up the will-call tickets, and we waited in line to be let in.

Here's where things went downhill. We were pulled aside as the bouncer checked our IDs and were informed, to our complete shock, that the show was 21 and older. My friend and I are both 19. However, I do not recall having ever seen, in the process of learning about the show and getting tickets, that the show was limited to 21 and up. It was not on her website or MySpace, the venue's website had no information about the shows, I (nor anyone else who had looked at it) remember it being on the TicketWeb site, and it wasn't on the order confirmation that was sent to me after I purchased the tickets.

The owner of the club and a woman who said she represented the promoter came out and after listening to our story told us that, unfortunately, there was absolutely no way to let us into the show, even though we offered to pay a cover charge and mark our hands (or anything else) so that it was obvious we couldn't drink. What's more, we were told that we couldn't get a refund. The promoter said that the ticketing website had a pop-up that informed me of the age restriction before I could buy the tickets, and while it's possible that I could've skipped something like that in my excitement to get tickets, I certainly don't remember it and was unable to check it since the had gone down by the time I got to computer.

I'm wondering if it's standard for Imogen to work with promoters that clearly don't care about her fans or the show, but simply the money involved. While the bar owner said that he "apologizes profusely" (rather without sincerity) and that he has been in our shoes, both he and the promoter seemed perfectly happy to take our money and throw us to the street. I bitterly left our tickets at the box office, instructing the person working there to give them away to the next person who tried to buy tickets, and we left to start the multiple hour ride back home.

So at the end of the day, we had spent over $150 between tickets, service charges, gas money, and tolls, and 9+ hours of our lives to be turned away because the club owner assumed my friend and I to be a pair of miscreants more concerned with getting booze than seeing Imogen perform and couldn't mark our hands with marker (or the sharpie I had in my pocket as I suggested) like at any other bar/venue and the promoter didn't take the effort to make the age restriction a little more obvious during advertising (if the information had been there at all).

I feel cheated, wronged, and highly disinclined to try to come to one of Imogen's concerts again, despite that she's one of my favorite musicians. While I don't expect anyone to listen, care, or do anything about this, I just feel that my experience needed to be put out there somehow. I hope no one else has had to put up with something like this.

Through an ironic twist of fate, I was able to stay in New York Thursday night and catch the late show at The Box. Here's a brief summary of some of the night's pertinent facts and my observations.
