on sale soon, 5.17.07 edition

On Sale Soon is a weekly series of the tickets going on sale that weekend.

Where to get tickets: The Independent, Great American Music Hall, Slim’s, Fillmore, Warfield, and other Livenation venues.

I’m excited about the Album Leaf (6/30) and the Polyphonic Spree (7/17). What’s the deal with eight nights of Smashing Pumpkin at the Fillmore? Want to take bets on whether that’ll sell out?

Also, do people have opinions on whether I should include presales? (Also, do people have opinions on whether I should continue this ‘on sale soon’ business at all?)
