Pretty Girls Make Graves tonight

I'm *probably* going (have a work-related rubber chicken dinner).
I know this gets asked so often, but if there are two opening bands, safe to say PGMG will come on between 10:30 and 11 at a Black Cat, mid-week show?
Oy, the big decision is going to be the show or the baseball game if I get out of the dinner early.

I'll spare Mankie from having to ask this time, what the Hell is a rubber-chicken dinner?

A rubber chicken dinner is one of those big conference/fundraising/award dinners with hundreds of people. You almost always get some kind of fish or chicken you can't recognize as either.

Actually it's never safe to say what time a band will go on at the Cat during the week. They're not as strick/considerate with time scheduling and the metro.

I know, and it kinda drives me crazy. It makes a big difference to me if a band goes on at 10 or 11 on a weeknight if I'm going just to check out a band I don't really know.
'Nother question. Is there a t.v. at Saint Ex?

It was a good show – I didn't know what to expect. I did buy the CD a few days ago, but I was still surprised at the band. They had great energy. About four or five songs were great. A couple didn't grab me, and a few more were good. Interesting crowd – along the periphery there were 10 - 15 folks just rocking out, singing every word. I love that, it makes a show even better for me.
They very much seem to be that kind of band; I can see listening to the album a bunch more and then loving the show.
Bass and vocalist were really good. She's a wee little thing with a big voice. A tiny bit like a "not weird" Karen O.
I liked it.

Not full at all. Less than half capacity. Maybe 150, 175?
