Moving from DC in a month....

And I dont see shit on the schedule that interests me. The club has without a doubt housed some of my greatest experiences to date up here. A great venue that Ill never forget….

Listed in no particular order

The Music 2x
Death Cab/Stars
Starsailor (May have been the best show of all of them)
Soundtrack of our Lives 2x
Interpol 2x
Secret Machines 2x
Kasabian 2x
Wilco
Doves
Snow Patrol
Stills/Metric
Vines (worst set)
Muse
Rooney (free tickets)
Phantom Planet/WSC (obligation)

There are probably a dozen other shows that Im spacing on…and this is just at 930.

Now I just need a grand finale, but which one? Any chance others will be added? What is up with these effing jam bands?

i was apart of that show

Was one of the best shows of my life. I came in bringing a lot of friends telling them that I liked the albums and they should be pretty good. Absolutely blown away. The second James Walsh opened his mouth, my jaw dropped and I was in a trance for about 90 minutes.

Flawless show and one of the best voices out there…Hoping I would catch them one more time before I leave but it looks like theyre going to be here in February.

Where are you moving?

and why isn't X a likely candidate?

Since Ive moved to SC Ive seen Hootie and the Blowfish (not joking) and a friend of mine is dragging me to see Saliva. Ive researched and they do that Click Click Boom song.

Cry for me….

Damn, that is sad. :)

I was counting on Asheville and Athens helping me out in that regard. Both are within 1.5 hours, but Ive been a bit disappointed. Asheville is way too granola for me and Athens only has quality acts every 2 months or so.

Got to see Metric there which was a great show and would have loved to have seen Editors/Stellastarr but was out of town.

Asheville is very hippie/patchouli,that's for sure….but,keep an eye on the Orange Peel…….for some reason in the last couple years they have booked some bands that I NEVER thought would be playing there………..talk about a fertile audience for the jam band scene….

Actually, I lived in Asheville for three months back in 1999 and liked it a lot. Great city. and they have very good shows, would go there on the weekends and for shows.

not to sound like the previous poster, but i lived near asheville for 4 months in 98 (then moved to DC)
I actually really loved asheville. it's a litte hippie-ish, but it's amazingly good for artisans and the like.
there was also a neat little club called "be here now" i think. that place was good.
i'm actually going there on vacation in july. i can't wait.
i (and i have no qualms admitting this) really love the Biltmore.
