Crash Moderns have the extreme honor of sharing the stage tonight (23 July 08) @ 8pm with one of their biggest idols, Greg Hawkes of The Cars.  The venue is called Cafe 939, which is located at 939 Boylston Street in the heart of Boston, Massachusetts. Rumor has it that this venue has a limited capacity, so it probably wouldn’t hurt to order your tickets in advance directly through Ticketmaster to avoid any unnecessary issues the night of the show
