enjoy your little indie show! ;D
let's not forget that M. Ward sold out 900 tickets in less than an hour, while DBT are still trying to move tickets ;D

i have found that amusing as well. why have two shows when you cannot sell out the first one?
Did they REALLY sell 900 tickets in less than an hour?
I called the box office and bought one of the two remaining tickets about an hour into the sale.
Prior to that, I checked the ticketmaster website. It said it was sold out, but that I could buy tickets from itd sister scam site, ticketsnow, for a mere $150. Now that we're closer to the show, they can be had for a mere $53. Here's to hoping some of those don't sell, and that the place is not jam packed.
So did it really sell out that quickly, or did ticketmaster funnel some of the tickets to ticketsnow.
I'll bet the DBT shows are crowded, even though they don't have an album out.. As the 9:30 box office guy told me, DBT is a band that sells alot of week of show tickets, and walkups. And their audience is full of fat, hairy, spacetaking guys like myself.

I don't remember exactly, but through you guys I found out about the show, and I think I got mine online 20 min. before Rhett. Via 6 & I I believe I bought. Within two hours it was sold out.
i'll be making it down for the show. I haven't seen M. Ward since '04 at Club Laga in Pittsburgh.
i'm going. I've never been to this venue…I'm trying to think positive but i think i'm failing.
Why? I heard it's a great place to see a show.
because I've heard the opposite.
I'm not a fan of seated shows to begin with, and the fact that the seats are more benches…I don't know.

Personally, I think it is one of the best places to see a show in DC. What show did you hear about that makes you concerned?
Though I wish they would, it's not like anybody is going to stay in their seat. Besides, what is the point of standing at an M. Ward show? Anybody who feels the need to dance at an M. Ward show is more than a little bit weird. If everybody stays seated, then everybody can see. That seems like a nice thing, right?

Actually, the vast majority of people at Synagogue shows stay in their seats, especially at the more mellow shows. The only ones where I've seen many folks standing are Lykke Li and Devendra Banhart.
Sorry, posting at the same time…What Rhett said.
Well that would be nice, especially after being out until the wee hours for a Drive By Truckers show Friday night and being awakened by a 20 month old at 6am. Don't ask me how I'm going to manage to do my Saturday nine mile run, I may have to shelve that.

you're right. maybe i'll love it. I'm trying (hand to god trying) to think positive about this. my reservations are mostly with the other show-goers and i should just ignore that.
