Wednesday Roll Call

OK, so what's it going to be:

1.Clap Your Hands Say Yeah at 9:30

2.Cloud Room at Black Cat

3.High Strung at Jammin Java

or

4.Two if By Sea and Asobi Seksu at DC9

The good news is you could try to get tickets to #1 and "settle" for #4 if it doesn't go well. And you could probably go to #3 and still make it back to the city for #4.

So, what's it gonna be boy?
5. Constitutional Law class

woo-hoo!
the cool kidz will be at The High Strung… don't need no stinkin' Dorkfork to tell me what to like…
Not unless you have a time machine. High Strung will probably finish up around 11.

We'll be at Jammin Java, unless my wife is too tired to go out.

I'll be at the Black Cat, but for Film School not for the Cloud Room now now.
Tough call. Let's compare the openers:

Dr. Dog @ 9:30
Rogers Sisters, Film School @ black cat
Capitol Years, Brindley Brothers @ jammin java

I've heard and liked some tracks from the Capitol Years and Brindley Bros, but don't know a thing about the others.

Logistically, I don't know if I want to fight traffic getting out to jammin java from DC when I'm 10 minutes from the other shows.
DR. Dog is good. I seem to remember heaing Film School and thinking they were pretty good as well.

I agree, why go to VA when the party is here? Besides, JJ is a horrible venue for the High Strung.
Have you seen High Strung at Jammin Java? Definitely worked well the last time they were there.

I'd be all over Two If By Sea if I didn't already have non-negotiable plans for tomorrow.
wow, I still can't believe the backlash over CYHSY on this board. I actually like the album and the ticket price was cheap enough. I'll be there.

What is Dr. Dog like? The name makes me think I'm going to hate them.

i love dr. dog, but i think most people on here don't agree with me … they have a classic rock kind of sound, put on a great unhinged live show, and "Easy Beat" was one of my favorite albums of last year
I'll be seeing Clap Your Hands because I am a trend-following hack.

I recall there were some conflicting opinions on Dr. Dog. I will withhold judgment, as Pitchfork has not yet told me what to think of them.

you better conform!
you forgot:

5. Gogogoairheart @ the Warehouse Next Door

if time permits, i will attempt to see both gogogo and asobi seksu.
Clap Your Hands is getting the NPR treatment.
Any predictions on when CYHSY will get out? Their set can't be that long, being as they only have one album.
Clap your hands say yeah

But, in my case, it's difficult not to think about what's coming on Thursday and Friday with the Pogues.
I have a date with the season finale of Project Runway.
I would love to see Film School, but I may not make it out tomorrow night. Too many options for one night…
