Just Announced

Well, I figured out the Sex Pistols password, but I'm still curious about getting on the actual Volume mailing list.

Thanks.

Has the Sex Pistols show already gone on sale??!!? My my, guess I'll be playing this one by ear.

Also, anyone have any clue if the Fountains of Wayne show might get close to a sellout? I have a friend convinced it will.
I will let everyone know when I get my copy of volume and the new password, OK?

It looks like the Blackcat is getting sort of repetitive.
why? or rather how?
I might be wrong but the Closed for Repairs days are pretty usual. Also, Q AND NOT U, Luna, and The Kills (I might be wrong on this one) have played pretty recently.
Q and not U and Luna both last played last year, I cant remember about the kills…. They only just blipped on my radar.

Still none of them are actually bad bands, are they?

I suppose you would complain if the beatles and the smiths played at the blackcat a couple of times a year too?
you and me both.

I started picking mine up at Melody Records in dupont because they seem to get volume long before I do. Also makes me wonder how special it is if you can pick one up with the special super secret password from a stack in a music store. I feel so unloved. Where's that Seth fan club post again?
The Kills opened for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs in April. But they've come out with an album and gotten some buzz in the meantime.

Luna plays DC all the damn time. Not the Black Cat's fault….I just wish it were some other band playing that often.

That's exactly my point, I wouldn't complain if they were good bands, it is just that many of these bands are pretty awful. But yes, it is a musical taste issue, so I wouldn't have any problem if you didn't agree with me. It was a personal opinion, if Grandaddy and the Pixies played every month, I wouldn't complain.

dude, the pixies broke up 10 years ago. . .get over it.
So I've only heard one Grandaddy song – sounds like Alan Parsons with a bit of indie quitar thrown on the top.

Have you been to see them live?

I know fans of both Q and noy U and Luna.

Hell you might even like Luna.
Minus the Bear is playing the black cat aug. 10 i believe… their new album is awesome. it should be a good show.

I went to both shows. Nothing against them but not my type of music. I left both shows after a few songs. Anyway, it was not my intention to trash these bands. I actually like the Blackcat a lot and enjoy going there to try to see if I like any new band.

The previous example said the Smiths and the Beatles, so I guessed I could also go back in time. Anyway, if you prefer it this way, let's replace them by Interpol or Ballboy.
