I'm with ya on these guys. Every NAD show Ive seen has been exceptional.

These guys should get booked around DC. They rock the house!!! Anybody booking shows that dig where they're coming from, get in touch with me.They're getting ready to put together a regional tour.

It is because of all the gear they bring along. I saw them in Seattle in 2004 and they said as much at the end of the show. But they also said they would be back around 'in a couple of years'

apparently they claim it's 'too expensive' for them to tour north america and make money.
it doesn't seem to be a problem for a lot of other bands with smaller followings.

Yeah, I really regret missing that one. I saw em at Coachella last year, but I'm sure that doesn't compare to the Black cat show.

Didn't they play there last year? I got their album after seeing them in Baltimore opening for someone (Keane maybe?).
They played DC at the beginning of 2005 with some now forgotten britrock band…
Hahaha…

They opened for The Libertines at the 9:30 Club. It was in April '05. Odd that I remember that considering that I wasn't there.

I too would love to see Portishead.

And YES!, Baltimore does count considering all of you DC snobs would think nothing of expecting those of us in Baltimore to schlep it down for any given show.

the libertines only played at the 930 club once which was in october 04. and radio 4 opened for them then (and if i remember right, british sea power opened for them at the black cat) i think the features opened for kings of leon in febuary last year though.


i'd love love love if the brian jonestown massacre would tour more of the east coast and a date in DC would be most welcomed
