Hey Seth

Ah, so you can fully relate to how perturbed I can sometimes get with some of the DC locals expecting you and I to always forfeit shows for their convenience. ;) It's always us who are expected to do all of the schlepping.
Hey Seth,

Is it too early to request that you book Grinderman (Nick Cave's new band) when they tour presumably in the spring of 2007?

Thanks,
Ed
Hey Seth,

Normally we all come to this thread to beg for stuff. For once, I'll be one to come here and give you a break. For once, we'll do you a favor.

Whatever you do, don't go out of your way to sell Incubus tickets to any board members. Leave us out of this one.

it's prettymuch always a given that i'm driving ~2hrs or ~100 miles for a show… i prefer that be the limit, but i go farther when i have to (or really want to).

when a band skips dc, i'm pissed because i haven't drive EVEN FARTHER.. not because i can't just hop on the metro or drive across town or whatever.

Thanks for the Mastodon show.
Heads up: Seth can we get LCD Soundsystem in April 2007?

Yes please!

(no, that's not a request for Yes, it's a "please" for Air)

Which reminds me, Steve is back with Journey, completing the original lineup. That would be epic and legendary rolled into one word, if there is such a thing.

At least the hit-making lineup. I think Perry came later. Journey started as a jazz-rock offshoot of Santana, IIRC.

Actually Steve's not really back with Journey, so absolutely nothing I said in that post is true, EXCEPT, that if it did happen, it would be epic.

Tease.
Of Montreal are at the Troc in philly on 3/8. They packed the state theater pretty well last summer; bet they could get close to filling up the club.

no, i'm pretty sure Of Montreal could sell out the 930.

seth, when you have a moment, please add them to my "please please please" list.
Another vote for The Dears, I'd love to see them. Same with Explosions in the Sky.

Also, any chance of booking The Frames when they tour this spring?

I'll throwmy hat in on this one, too. They were sublime in 2004 on the Talkie Walkie tour. I think both days sold out.
Hey Seth… Sevendust is putting together a national tour starting in Feb/Mar right about now. If you can, please book them for a date at the club. Its been way too long!
Booka Shade are putting together a US tour. I've seen dates in chicago, LA and SF so far; would love to see them in DC.
