Poll - which day would you be more inclined to see a sho

ok - ignoring who the artist might be would you be more likely to go see a show on

a) Sunday Sept 2 (Labor Day Sunday)
b) Tuesday Sept 4
c) Neither date

just curious…..would be interested to see what people think…..on the one hand a bunch of people could be out of town for the sunday date, but on the other for those that are left its a good night to go out because no work the next day???

Sunday. The day after a long weekend usually finds me very tired and broke.

sunday.

i just find it so much easier to head out to a show after a day of doing nothing then after a day of work (especially with work the following day).

Sunday as well.

Tuesday - then it wont matter if im out of town on a sunday :)

Sunday

tuesday… i'm almost certain to be out of town during the long weekend, and weekday shows aren't a big issue for me. especially if its for a good band - c'mon folks, one night with less than 9 hours of beauty-sleep isn't going to kill ya.

tuesday, because it's my birthday.

Tuesday

sunday

thanks for your responses guys, keep em coming!!

Normally, I'd say Sunday but I'll be out of town that weekend. So Tuesday.

so you have a representative sample now - care to spill the beans? if it's a quality act, i'd consider changing my travel plans to attend on sunday. if it's some no-name garage band… lemme know how it was, since it won't matter when they're playing. you've definitely got me curious now.

Thanks for the reponses folks - I think I am leaning towards Sunday….

Its definitely a quality act, not necessarily one that you've heard of.

His name is Dave Couse, and he's one of my favorite artists of the last 15 years. He's solo now, but was in a legendary Irish band called A House, that have a few fans here on the forum (Pollard - any interest in coming to DC for Labor Day??!!).

Great lyricist and a knack for creating perfect, albeit slightly vitriolic 3 minute pop songs.

Anyway, I'll be spamming the board alot more about this over the coming months but I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend coming to see him.

I am also happy to make sampler CDs for anyone who wants to hear a little more (quite frankly, the songs on the myspace pages are only a tiny slice of his work).

And I'll probably need to get street teamer tips from betty :)

I'm out of town through Monday, so Tuesday, but I already have a ticket for the Editors concert on Tuesday….

It wasn't clear from your first post.

Sunday, no question. The Tuesday after a three-day weekend is basically a Monday, which is roundly known to be the worst day of the week for a show. I've bagged on Monday shows often, even when I have tickets.
