Thanks for bringing such a great festival to the Baltimore/Washington area! Vfest looks great already, I surely will be there! I would second Modest Mouse and Daft Punk and add in Girl Talk since he seems to be doing the festival circuit, especially if you plan on having the techno/club tent again. Im sure it conflicts with a noise ordinance, but would it be possible to run the club tent past the end of the headliner? I think that would be a fun place to go after the other performances end.
Hey Seth
And how about more minimal techno/electro/techhouse and downtempo and less trance in said dance tent? Hell…Just bring everyone associated with the Kompakt, Get Physical and Ed Banger labels across the ocean. :) I know acts like tiesto and oakenfold would bring more patronage but they're just so…uhh…bad.
i second the request for a less thumpy dance tent… The endless boom boom booms leaking from it seemed to follow me everywhere and lessen to some extent the vibe by the second stage which by the way was the best part of last years festival.

Ed Banger labels across the ocean.
Yes, yes it would. If Miami gets an Ed Banger showcase this week, I don't see why we can't get one in august. I'm seeing Justice at coachella but that's just not enough.
Justice is my latest addiction, i just wish they'd update their podcast.
Please bring the Polyphonic Spree so we can have a good ole gay time? They are playing NYC in May!
Hey Seth, when The Secret Machines get back on the road please try to book them to the club. Thanks…
Hey Seth,
I know my suggestions will probably be a lot different that everyone else, but…
Another night for 3eb, they have an empty date between their Ram's Head and 9:30?
Honda Civic Tour will be in the area June 4th, but they aren't playing on June 3rd. Cobra Starship was awesome at the Cartel show, and getting them back to the club might be a lot of fun. (Similiar to how Ram's Head booked Akon despite the Gwen Stefani Tour). Could team them with their labelmates The Hush Sound who have a very decent draw and haven't played the DC area in a while despite touring with bigger bands.
Just some thoughts, thanks!

slint is playing 2 nights at webster hall and are doing other dates.

seeing the 930 show in 05 made me wish i'd travelled to catch more.

I'll second Slint. Especially if they're doing Spiderland everywhere they play.
Sonic Youth are playing Daydream Nation in Chicago, Los Angeles, and Berkeley…hope to see them here. Maybe at the Merriweather with Slint performing Spiderland and the Flaming Lips performing the Soft Bulletin ? :D

Separately, I'm hoping Nickel Creek is coming back to DC before their final hiatus. Thus far, they have dates scheduled across the country (openers include Tift Merritt, Jon Brion and Glen Phillips). Once they make their way east, if they could be scheduled at the 9:30 , that would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Hey Seth, I just sat here with my mom trying to find her tickets to see Tony Bennett…If he comes back to town can you see if he'll do a show at 9:30? Oh, and another very special request from her - Bonnie Raitt at 9:30? Please and thanks.
:D
:D
Hey Seth,
How about having Tomahawk playing some time this summer. Their new album, Anonymous, comes out in June. Many of us crave this side of Mr. Patton.

Hey Seth!
For V Fest can we get Ellen Allien, Apparat, or Superpitcher in the dance tent?
And as for the club…can we get the Veruca Salt/Charlotte Martin tour?

any chance of hosting gore's concert on 07/07/07 @ 930?!
according to this other thread on this board, he's gotta look for a new venue!
