First Pavement Date Confirmed, Tickets On Sale A YEAR In Advance

Sure, it's huge that Pavement has finally decided to reunite. But even so, it's baffling to learn that tickets are going on sale more than a year in advance. Yes, you heard that correctly: tickets for the band's September 21st, 2010 date at the Central Park Summer Stage will go on sale tomorrow morning, September 19th, 2009.

Tomorrow's on-sale is a presale via the band's new site crookedrain.com, and apparently a full on-sale will occur on Tuesday September 25th. The password for the pre-sale is ZOWEE and the ticketing link is here. Apparently once the full on-sale occurs, there will also be tickets "without surcharges from the Nokia Theatre box office in Times Square and from Earwax at 218 Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg."

If you can already feel the megahype starting to build, you're not alone.
