is there anything interesting going on this weekend?

yikes, PM me the directions, but the prospect of driving all the way to the north side of Bawlmer and then driving home again all tired and bleary-eyed, doesn't sit too well…

Liberation Dance party at DC9 tonight featuring the music of Franz Ferdinand, The Killers, Interpol, etc.
hipster night!! woohoo!

maybe its just me, but the Killers is like one of those guilty pleasure bands for me.

great album, but i doubt i'd admit liking them very often.
Doom, I haven't checked out Electrotease since its heyday at Five, which was a mixed bag as far as music and crowd. The cover is usually hefty but is made up by name DJs.

Bags, I just saw the ad in the paper so I can't speak from personal experience..

Just an FYI, that's pretty much DC9's standard playlist…. You can check out their "M21 Music List" here.

You can stream Two if By Sea here.

"Translations" is 9 songs of new-wave inspired angular rock… ambient electronics, guitars, live and triggered drums, and voices…creating an original post-punk sound infused with the spirit and sensibility of late 70s/early 80s.

Sounds good to me, wonder what the turnout will be like.
hmm, I might pop by "Between Friends," if only because it will stir memories of Medusa/Strange's DJ nights there when it was called U-Turn, which were always fun :)

Between Friends is NOT the same place as The U-Turn Bar - just want to make sure everyone knows this!

Between Friends is however right near The U-Turn Bar, but on the same side of U Street as Bohemian Caverns.

Yes, U Turn, which in turn, was reminiscent of Panic to me. This sounds tempting too, but tomorrow's event is free.

U-Turn holds 80 people, Between Friends holds more like 800 :) Big difference! This venue is great and the prices on drinks is cheap. Right next to the Industrial Bank <img src="http://www.deep6.com/icon/devil.gif" alt=" - " />

>>>I got free tickets to this shindig and I think it will be damn fine!! See ya in Baltimore!!
In addition to the Kurosawa film fest, this is the second weekend of the EU Film Showcase at the AFI .

And xcanuck, I've seen Two if by Sea 3-4 times now and really like them a lot. Along the lines of Franz Ferdinand. And better live than recorded. I wish they would get more attention.

I think a lot will be going on tonight between a lot of "friends," especially if people dress as ElectroTease wants them to (in their underwear). ;)

Jesus Christ, Doom!!! You just circled the entire planet like it was nothing and now you say that a little trip up to Baltimore is too far. It's not the freaking moon. And it's a Saturday to boot! :p

Sonick, what are we going to do with some of these wussy-assed DC wimps?
