Do you have a link to the rest of the tour? I cant find anything on it…
Check the Blast.
MNDR is opening the Ting Tings show. Got my ticket!

So psyched about the Feist and Spiritualized announcements. What an excellent spring for shows!

Birchmere, you fucking suck.


Saw him open for the Felice Bros at Iota(s) a while back for I think about $6.
I saw Dr. Dog open for Bobby Bare Jr. at Iota for about the same price.

Look at them now.

Dr Dog headlined DC9 around 2005 and I think 12 people showed up.

And all 12 went home and formed what are now very successful power pop bands.

I remember seeing Alejandro Escovedo do an instore at DCCD in front of me, a friend, and the store workers.

And seeing Feist do an instore at Foggy Bottom Tower Records in front of not many more than 12.

I haven't seen Converge in a decade, but I imagine their set in a place as small as DC9 would be as chaotic as they come.


endless beer trucks!
Anyone get GnR tix? They were all gone at 10:01 for me…

Got a four pack.
I didn't try until 10:01 and got shut out. But I did get 3rd row for Feist. :)
That Gavin Degraw guy looks like her could use a good kick in the teeth.

Roseanne Barr announced on Thursday evening that she is officially pursuing the Green Party's nomination for president of the United States, fulfilling a promise she made back in August.

Like many third-party candidates, she's seeking to use the platform of a presidential campaign to draw attention to issues dear to her heart. So what, exactly, are Barr's pet issues and political beliefs?

Barr used the language of the Occupy Wall Street movement during her announcement on Thursday, calling on the 99% of Americans to help power her cause. She's long been identified as a populist figure; her sitcom "Roseanne," which ran from 1988 to 1997, offered a refreshingly realistic look at working-class life at a time when TV shows like "Dallas" and "Dynasty" were peddling high-end glamour. Barr is now developing a new sitcom at NBC called "Downwardly Mobile," set in a mobile home community.

On Twitter, Barr followed up her announcement by laying out some of her immediate policy priorities: forgive all student loans, homeowner debt and credit card debt by "kicking out" the Federal Reserve; institute single-payer healthcare within 100 days of her inauguration; pursue those she calls "financial terrorists"; reconfigure American diets, shifting away from animal protein and toward protein from nuts (she owns a large macadamia nut farm in Hawaii); and fight for gay rights.

Barr has also long been in favor of legalizing marijuana, and has said in the past that she'd abolish all taxes.

Wow.  She's a fucking genius.
