Just get there early.
And I'd say they're not so much benches as pews. It is a house of worship after all.

M. Ward/Vivian Girls rollcall
it's a really nice venue and should be perfect for m. ward. although vivian girls will be clanging all over the place. the sound has improved tenfold over the past year. the only issue is that some of the balcony seats don't offer the best sight lines. so do get there early for a downstairs spot if you want to see. i suggest seeing the vivian girls bassist.
i really like the vivian girls, but keep thinking of Tiger trap. which isn't a bad thing, i think i was just honestly surprised that it wasn't Rose melberg singing
I've missed Vivian Girls twice already. I'm really looking forward to seeing them.
I will be there and I absolutely can't wait.
I've been wanting to see M.Ward for probably four or five years now and I was out of town the weekend he was at the Birchmere.
I can't think of a better place than 6th and I to see him perform, other than maybe a seated show at the 930.
And yeah… there really isn't a reason to be standing/dancing at a show like this. You'll look like an idiot. ::)
Get there early if you want a good seat, otherwise you'll be sitting with the choir up top.

went to 6th & I last night for the first time to see Rob Riggle… great venue…
Great show last night… A little too short for my liking, was thinking the show would've at least been an hour and half, but pretty awesome nonetheless. The sound was a little muffled from where I was sitting, but an absolutely great acoustic set to start the show with a very respectful audience.
The Vivian Girls however were one of the worst opening acts I've ever seen after 15 years of seeing shows.

Excellent show. It would have been perfect had he played that Daniel Johnston's cover "To Go Home" but great to hear "Poison Cup" and "Chinese Translation" nonetheless and even his take on a She & Him song. That said, I really dislike that new song "Never Had Nobody Like You" for its corny lyrics.
I did not enjoy the Vivian Girls live but I enjoy them on record.

M. Ward was predictably fantastic.
I wish every show I wanted to see was at Sixth and I. No sevice fees, seated shows, no problems seeing, good sound, no drunk assholes, and show done by 10:45 in a Saturday night. Perfect.
Vivian Girls exceeded my very low expectations. Still, I'd never sit at home and choose to listen to them. Their stage banter played like a really bad, unfunny SNL skit.

Did the Kris Kristofferson show already happen?
Nope, Mountain Goats are one of the bands that I actively detest. And having seen Vanderslice once (as an opener), I have no desire to see him again!

That show is not yet confirmed. Who knows where they'll play.
