You are right, Julian. I guess it is safe to assume they are never leaving Brooklyn again.

Seriously, did I misread the announcement? Is this 20 dates or 20 dates each month from now on?

Obviously I'm proposing no such thing.

How about this, pal: if LCD SS plays a DC-area show (Baltimore does not count) before 3/31/2022, I'll buy you a general admission ticket. If they don't, you buy me a $25 IMP Gift Card?

Thanks for the generous offer. To be clear, I wasn’t predicting a show in my question to Seth. I was asking if one was likely. I’m old and don’t want to travel to Brooklyn anytime soon. Sometimes we get lucky with answers around here.
However, being a sporting fellow, how about this. If a show in the DC area is announced by Feb. 1, I win. If not, you do. It will be fun to play. Are there any merch offerings or gift cards that benefit staph? If so, let’s bet one of those. If not, a $25.00 IMP gift card works.

I am fine with your alternative wager. Game on.

Let’s rock and roll. I am sad that you have to root against an LCD show to win, though.

I mean if there's no LCD SS show, I win. If there is an LCD SS show, I get to go to the LCD SS show with date Here's the Thing.

You do understand we're going together, yeah?

Ha! I’m flattered, but I don’t think my most recent marriage contract extension allows me to “date” or “get together” with anyone other than Ms. Here’s The Thing, but I will be happy to buy you a beer at the show.
Good point about the win either way.

It was certainly an odd turn of events. I don’t understand the kids and their online dating practices.

Sounds like a perfect act for the new old 930

When's it open? He has a few NY dates in March… also, does U St. Music Hall still exist in some capacity?

Well, he just announced a big euro tour the week after the NY shows, so I'm going to assume DC is off the table.

so board favs Viagra Boys are coming to the states in the spring for Coachella

couldn't think of a better act to have at the club around that time

Beck acoustic at The Lincoln please.

Saw Beck at the Lincoln for the Sea Change tour.  Still the best show I have ever seen there.

man, wish I caught that show, that was such a great album.  that and Mutations are his best releases IMO
I saw him only a few years prior at the George Mason and seem to remember that being a very meh show
beck tens to yelp a lot live

Besides his first two masterpiece albums before Mellow Gold . . . Mutations affected me deeply as a music listener.  I also caught the Patriot Center show and though I don't consider it a meh show, it definitely did not have the power of the Lincoln show.  The Patriot show was more of a showman's show, where the Lincoln was an artistic experience.

Dude tell me you remember you saw him at the club?

Sea change is a pretty good forgery…. One song completely copies a Gainsbourg song..another does the same with Nick Drake… “Hey dad can you copy Riverman on the strings? Yeah here is the Nick Drake song..”….”Hey dad you know how I am always going on about Melody Nelson by Serge being my favorite? Can you copy it? Even if I keep yapping about it nobody will care and people will think I am a genius!”
