Simplicity last week for the first time in years.
They were a great band that, unfortunately, never seemed to gain a lot of traction. Too bad.

i don't really wish they were still around, because most bands break up for a reason, but i always thought that one of the most underrated local bands was THE ROPERS. really great dreamy indie pop on teenbeat/slumberland.

Murder Ink. Wow, someone remembers them. Do you have their CD?
I have to agree with most of these, 9353 happy to have seen them the first time through and when the briefly reformed (and played the Taste of DC). Velocity Girl IIRC broke up because of the downward trend in their CD sales. Date Bait, the Ubangis still play on occasion, and that is pretty close.

Canyon. They were stunning. I know Brandon Butler does a solo thing, and some of the rest of the guys are playing as Revival, but Canyon was way better then either of those two acts.
