No, no, the path here is claiming its a dream show one has wished would happen for decades but refusing to go to Fillmore Silver Spring for purity reasons. That's the play.

No, no, the path here is claiming its a dream show one has wished would happen for decades but refusing to go to a venue with inferior sound like Fillmore Silver Spring. That's the play.

Jules is not wrong, but I don't even think you have to mention the sound or poor drink selection or cavity searches at the door

Or the fact that its own by a soulless corporation instead of a fine, upstanding beacon of the community like Seth Hurwitz!

damn, how could i forget that
but this is where FSS is giving back to the community though

Hopefully they don't add a third inconsequential band to the bill, thus shortening the presumably co-headlining sets like they did for the James/Psy Furs tour.

Saturday 11/19

might have to venture out of the of abode for this one, really enjoying his new album and now pondering a pretend DJ setlist for the show…

It’s interesting that IMP passed on Suede/Manics… I think it was the right call… I don’t see this moving more than 1500 tix…. I guess it could have been a Lincoln Theatre show.. but would it even sell out?

No. The FSS has capacity of I think 2000

There is a "local's only" The Waltz "cover-concert" every year in Richmond at a venue called The Camel and it raises money for a local charity and sells out every year at like a 300 max capacity. I guarantee it blows WHATEVER THIS IS out of the water.

Not if it was free and you bought my dinner beforehand.

So the first two are inconsequential as well?

Seriously. With so many people on the bill, they'll max only play one song each, or the show is going to go until like 5 a.m. Pass!

caught by the grammar fuzz again

what i meant is they added a third band that end up being inconsequential and essentially ate up 45+ minutes which could have added to the co-headliners sets.. of which we only there to see James who thankfully were the middle set…

How many of those people are actually singers and how many of them would just be the backing band?

Eh, the Big Star Third show was kinda a similar idea and it was great (at the club maybe 7 or 8 years ago?) although at least Jody Stephens was there for that one.
