I'm pretty sure that there is no such thing as a super excellent seat at Echo.  So very happy to never have to go there again.

B&S at the Anthem is easily worth that


Agreed.  Worth every penny.  They're $50.50 to see them in the Bay Area (Fox Theater, Oakland, capacity 2,600) and I'm not flinching one bit.

Should be announced soon.


I bet they blow the roof off the place!
Is Merriweather's season going to be notably lighter because of the Anthem?  A lot of the acts playing the Anthem in the spring and summer–MGMT, Belle and Sebastian, Jack White, the Decemberists, etc.–headlined Merriweather in the past.

they have to get it back up…before it can be blown off (again)
I'm not sure I've ever seen a "Language not suitable for all ages" tag on a 9:30 Club show listing before, lol:  https://www.930.com/event/1614870-matt-kim-washington/

I don't really associate Matt and Kim as being particularly foul-mouthed. Tyler, The Creator is all ages.

Maybe that will free up the shed for multiple Jason Aldean shows. Those acts you list probably don't like to be out in the sun so much anyway.
Anthem, will become the go-to hip mainstream music that is currently cool, venue

Nissan, will be the aging rock venue for fans who still dream that van halen rules the fucking land

Merriweather, will be where country music artists reach out to the masses, and phish or young people festivals plague the weekends

930 will be for people who used to have to go to U street or Black Cat, for such a fresh underground show

DAR, won't be for shit, because nobody will go there anymore, just like Lisner.

So, any chance a Phish FWB ticket sale will be announced today?
Any Phish presales? I haven't gotten the usual Wednesday 9:30 emails in a few weeks.
don't think so dudes.  >:(

Not so sure.  I think demand will be super high.  Kind of surprised there's been no FWB announcement.  The scalper market it going crazy with the other shows already on sale.

Julian is the resident troll, please disregard his malarkey. This will be a tough ticket, good luck.
More guided by voices dates announced including NC but no DC..did Bob trash the 930 his last show or something?
