Yes he his…two nights I believe.. He IS what Robbie Williams wants to be.

I've never seen him but always wanted to go for the same reasons you do, but I know loads of people from all age groups who've seen him and all say the same thing…"one of the best shows I've seen"….I think I've finally convinced (or is that begged) my wife to go with me. My mate would definately go but two blokes going together would be a bit "odd" to say the least!!!

Michael W. Smith 8/3 on the National Mall

I'll agree with GbV…

Am getting more and more excited about the X show next week. I suspect Ash is going to be very good, and Wilco/Sonic Youth should be a nice time.

the christian singer? i have a friend who was way into him when he was in his christian rock stage. hell, i think he still is but we rag his ass so bad about it that he hides his habit. :D

*wonders how in inappropriate it would be to comment on that*

when and where is gbv? i've missed them repeatedly for one reason or another.

thievery corp this monday should be great. and angelique kidjo in august should be stellar too with her incredible pipes.

There is no GBV date yet, not even a tour yet. I was joking about Michael W. Smith. But he is playing that day if you want to tell your friend. ;)

oh i could have fun with him about this. but just how do you know about it???

yeah, no gbv date set, but the new album comes out in august, so expect them around here in august or september.

Pollstar

I'm looking forward to GLASTONBURY '03!!!

Can't think of anything locally, however…

ugh, misread the actual post–

okay, seeing how royksopp hasn't done a dc date, i'd like to see them here. moloko is playing a lot of european festival dates, so some us shows would be fun. damien rice with his full band would be enchanting.

radiohead, obviously, but we all know that ain't gonna happen.

11/4 and 11/5 tickets are $58 - $78 plus ticketbastard shafting. Still gotta do it though I think.

those 3 are on my list, along with:
tortoise (they did some west coast dates and were doing field day and are doing bonnaroo – other dates coming?)
kraftwerk - they've played shows in japan/europe/australia/new zealand in the past 10 months. hoping they'll come back here.
einsturzende neubauten - it's only a matter of time.

however i'm not limiting myself to waiting on dc or only going to dc. i will be travelling all over for all of those bands to hit as many shows as i reasonably can.

>>Kraftwerk has not toured the U.S. since 1981. That's one hell of a wait!! They don't seem to be interested.

uh… unless i'm totally mistaken here, kraftwerk toured the us in 1998 and played the 930 club.
