ELECTRIC SIX ROLL CALLLLLL

who the fuck is coming tomorrow night to dance with us?

it's going to be a fun show; mark my words. i'm going to make EVERYONE in DC dance tomorrow night. mark my words…


anybody seen these guys live before?

I've got a friend in town, don't know if she'll be in to it. I've been hearing about She Wants Revenge, so I may try to get us by.

Is this going to be a night-of sellout?

yes in detroit when they were still the wildbunch and they stunk…. bottom of the friends of jack white barrel… the only good thing that could be going for them, if he too hasn't been kicked out, is that The lead guitarist of Brendan Benson's Wellfed Boys was in the band. but knowing how often they replace band members probably still not on board. they are the ultimate UK one-hit wonder, their hit single will appear on every Y2K compliations ad infinitum..

dunno…we've already gotten tickets, though. She Wants Revenge are popping up EVERYWHERE lately, but they sound just like The Bravery/everyotherbandoutthere, to me. but i've heard good things about their live performance, so, who knows…

I have seen them before and i dont really care for them.
however, i will probably drop by the show tonight in Baltimore…cause i have no life (and might not have to pay)

Thanks to Fred Durst!

I was truely amazed how bad the She Wants Revenge song I heard on the radio was.

I was going to check out the show…gotta give the fellow labelmates some support :) I'm going to be up in Philly instead enjoying the missed live sounds of Tapping the Vein. It's been way too long since they've played a show and even longer since I've seen them.

You can be Joe.

we'll be there. any idea on set times? i'm thinking 10/11/12 since there are 3 bands?

i don't think it will sell out tonight. it had the possibility to, but with it being freezing out, and dc folks being weather wimps, it won't sell out now.

3 bands on a Saturday night at the Black Cat tend to go much, much later then that. it depends though on the bands, and whether they are running late or not. i've been out of there close to 2 before though on Saturday's when there have been three bands, but it just depends…

Ah, but you were quite wrong, my dear. It was very sold out at least a half before the first band went on and the children were streaming in by the boatloads. I found out the hard way.

yes indeed i was very wrong! and what an odd mix of people that were at that sold out show. was it all ages? cuz there were a significant amount of teenagers, and the random 8 year olds as well. or at least they looked 8 years old. it seemed like the crowd consisted of black cat typicals, teenagers (and tweenagers), and then a whole bunch of non regulars that didn't know what the hell else to do on a saturday night of a holiday weekend. i think a prominent plug of tonight's show on the post's city guide was the root cause.

that said, i've never been at a black cat show where it was giant party and so many folks just bopped around like dancing fools, having a grand ol' time. that was fun to see and definitely made the show more enjoyable. i guess betty threatned everyone with the riot act if they didn't get down and boogy tonight!

i've seen electric 6 now, and once was enough. i came, i saw, i listened. and that's that. i liked every other song. made for a fun sat night but once was enough. lead singer reminded me of dicky barrett from the bosstones.

the lead singer of she wants revenge sounded eerily exactly like ian curtis but a good frontman. as my friend said "she wants revenge is the "lite" version of interpol." to which i replied "with even more vapid lyrics than interpol!"
