That can’t be right? Closed since 2018?

Hmmm maybe. The linked website says the renovation began in 2018, but doesn't say that's when they closed.

Live Nation Club Pass: Fillmore Silver Spring

I was already buying Ween, so if I just go to that, I paid only $25 over cost
but I want to see Rina, MSP/Suede, Whitney, The Reverend Horton heat and the mysterines (and really didn't want to pay $70 to not see AWOL)



So if I go to half of these shows, I'll get my monies worth
but still will moan at the prospect of a 45 minute drive every time
Yeah I just don’t see anything I want to see other than Ween….and I don’t do well at shows when I am not really into it…

There’s always the possibility they announce something in December that I will like

But typically I hardly ever go to the Fillmore unless it’s something I really really want to see….

The pass is a good deal no doubt
ween presale sold out

I'm going to be very pissed if I don't get into ween on this Pass deal

How many of those shows would you have gone to if you didn't buy the pass? That's the real comparison. They're inducing you to spend money you wouldn't have spent.
They're offering you $5,000 worth of concert tickets that might only have personal value of $500 at a cost of $75.

Had I bought a pass, I might pop into a show for 20 minutes, and not feel bad about leaving.

I was planning on going to 2, which would have cost about $125
there were 3-4 more I was on the fence about…especially open act slots

but now I think I'll check out a few others…just wish it wasn't a 45 min drive…takes me only 8 more mins to get to MPP

also I plan to spend ZERO on drinks there and will just stop by Takoma Wellness
(maybe merch which I guess they get a cut of)
