My first time seeing Ida!
According to Autolux's site, they will be opening for Secret Machines on their US tour. Assuming they are playing all of the dates, I guess that means they will be here March 4th.
Sort of, but not really. They're both quality acts. Both started with a louder, more alt-rock approach and have veered toward a quieter, melodic sound. They work together for me anyway.

Does anyone else think that this is kind of an odd pairing? Yet, I can see this working at Iota. I wouldn't mind going to see Earlimart but not on a freaking Monday night!

Not that quick, I bought tickets for Irving Plaza in NY several days after the on-sale date. DC is usually a little slower selling out venues.
I will put money on the fact that Slint won't sell out.
how long before 930.com lists a show are tix available at the window? Is there a rule or does it depend on the show?

Nice. I'm pretty curious to see them.

And on a side note, a band called The Features is opening for Razorlight.
is there a link to The Features?? are they local??
They're not normally on sale before they're listed on the website. Usually, they announce shows on the website on Wednesday evenings and tickets go on sale Thursday mornings. I'm not sure why a few big shows were recently on sale before they were announced on the website. That's definitely not the norm at all.
damn. i totally lucked out then. I got Bright Eyes and Arcade Fire tickets almost by accident when skimming tickets.com. RULE

Speaking of Mr. Flav:

The latest season of the â??Surreal Lifeâ? reality show is drawing attention, due to the on-camera relationship between Brigitte Nielsen and Public Enemyâ??s Flavor Flav.

Now, the two will star in a brand new reality show for VH1, in which they travel across the United States and arrive in Las Vegas, where Flav and Nielsenâ??s real life fiancée Mattia Disse will try to win Nielsenâ??s heart.

"They're both gonna ask me to marry them, that's what I think," Nielsen told the New York Post. "We're starting the next show on October 4, Mr. F.[Flavor Flav] and myself. We're just going to be hanging out. He's going to pick me up in Italy. We're going to his mom's. Then we're off to Los Angeles for two days and then we go to Vegas."

Nielsen, who got engaged to Disse shortly after taping the â??Surreal Life,â? is in the middle of a divorce and was previously married to Sylvester Stallone.

that's odd. they hate playing the black cat. hate the vibe there and have had major crowd issues the three times they've played there. i even emailed their tour manager alternative venues like dc9 and iota.

odd that the black cat has it on its site yet you can't buy tickets yet. ususally the two are in tandem.

And if they do, I wonder if all of the crowd complainers will hit the show again?

It seems that they should come here as they did sell out and they seemed very happy to be playing the 9:30 Club. Paul even made some kind of comment to that affect and had a rare smile on his face when he said it.
