The Neko Case show was in April, and I don't think that will be topped by anything.
Other than that, I haven't seen any DC show listings ANYWHERE that I wanted to see.
NYC, Chicago, and Seattle definitely get many more interesting shows than DC.

Are things shifting a bit? Seems a lot of shows head to B'more / Philly these days. Haven't seen anything enticing on the 9:30 calendar in a bit. DC9 / BC seem to have better shows. Or, is it just me being all complain-y?

Oh, I'd really like to see Lansing-Dreiden! Would recommend them to anyone who likes Trans-Am or the like.

I have to agree, I've only seen some shows I'm moderately interested in…mostly b/c I want to get out. 9:30 just doesn't seem to have performers I'm interested in, I guess.
Since the new year, there have only been a few shows that I'd really hope to see. Yet, the prices seem off or too high for me. Certain acts keep touring here, upping their price 'cause they sold out last time.
Iota has some shows that others here seem to be interested in, but honestly, I haven't seen a stellar show listed there in a year.
Okay, I'm getting off track and complaining. Sorry.

Interesting. They haven't made a good album in five years but I'll probably end up attending because they are one of those bands I've never seen. Hopefully, they'll do some of their "Some Friendly" material.
I haven't seen them since the "Some Friendly" days in San Fran I do beleive……I might have to check this one out…..

Echo & the Bunnymen were quite boring last time I saw them in San Fran. But, since they're Echo, I might see them again…LOL..that's how it works.

YES!! They promised that I could dance on stage with them the next time they were back to DC, so. Let's do it.

Thanks Chaz
yeah, a year or so ago our friends had their second and after a few months we dropped by for a visit and I asked "So is it twice as hard w/ two versus one?". She said no, its ten times as hard!
Just as we were getting used to a full night of sleep again!
