A show that's likely to sell out faster than you can say, "Lady Gaga wuz here," Robyn has booked a Nov. 14 date at the Fine Line Music Cafe. Tickets will be $25 and probably on sale later this week (stay tuned for full announcement). We're not sure if this will be the Swedish pop star's first time in town, but it's certainly her first gig here since U.S. audiences went gaga for her singles "Dancing on My Own" and "Hang With Me." The show was booked by First Ave staff, which already has Cloud Cult booked in the main room that night. However, perhaps the idea is for Robyn to play a packed club like Gaga did and add to her buzz in the same fashion.

First Ave also just confirmed two shows by Atmosphere, Nov. 27 and 28. Tickets ($20) go on sale Friday. Atmosphere's new double-EP drops today, and its tour kicks off tomorrow.
