Concerts: Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Goldfrapp, Jamie Lidell


Posted at 10:01 am

Oddly, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant just were shortlisted for the 2008 Mercury Music Prize, a prestigious award given out in the British Isles, for their collaboration on “Raising Sand”.

Why odd? Well, because Krauss and the album’s producer, T Bone Burnett, are straight out of America’s Heartland, while the award is meant to champion UK groups. Oh sure, Plant’s as British as they come, but still, the album wasn’t even recorded overseas.

And it's, y'know, an Americana record.

Whatever the case, there’s presale information below for the duo’s upcoming performance at the WaMu Theatre on Oct. 1, along with presale info for Jamie Lidell, Goldfrapp and more.

As usual, the ticket costs don’t include service fees, and if you know of another good show, by all means, toss it in the comments section.
