Son of Commentary on Just Annouced

Yes, but you can still show up and do the exchange with someone pretty easily. In fact, I think you can pick tickets up prior to the show, though I may be wrong.

the organizers of the philly show stated that you could bring a pillow and crash out on the floor… just sayin'

Oh fabulous. Because there's nothing more I want to do than lie down on the floor of the Iota Cafe. Maybe after my nap I can wash up and have a drink from the toilet.
Every advance Black Cat ticket I've ever bought I bought at the club, and they gave me an actual ticket.

You can also get them at any TicketMaster outlet.
thanks again.

speaking of advance tickets for BC shows, what are people's thoughts on tom morello/nightwatchman? quick sell-out (i.e. buy online), or i can wait to buy on tuesday when i go to the BC for jens? how well-attended was his show last year at java? (or was it iota?)
It's cash only though. No running up your credit card miles on Black Cat tickets bought at the door. The $0 service fee is very cool.

As for the new (R.E.M.) album, I'm pretty excited about it. What I've heard of it has been very good, better than their recent albums. I'm not too crazy about "Supernatural Superserious", but "Living Well Is the Best Revenge" kicks ass. I love the Vincent Moon video.
This video as well as several others have now become available at

If you're a fan, definitely check out these videos! (Tip: Look for the "ipod" links if you want to download these videos.)
Jens is on wednesday.

Sold out quickly at JJ. Staff there still think it is one of the best shows they've ever had.

yes. i do, and i am not entirely sure what gives. i take 2 factors into consideration.

1) its winter and theres just not as much touring happening this time of year.

2) baltimore is not really on the cutting edge musically, so classic rock/90s alternative cover bands do pretty well.

and the 3rd, which i dare mention, cover bands are cheap as hell to book but you can keep the drink prices the same.

i hope to see the cover bands stop as the weather warms.
i can see how all three factors play into it. thanks for your thoughtful response.

wtf? what happened to club 5? i haven't been in a year if not more, but having a blues/country act perform there definitely wasn't on the bill last i was there. have they given up on the DJ thing?

i don't remember this being discussed previously, but apologies if it has been.
slappy mentioned in the DEMF thread Five was rumored to be going back to a live music venue…

and on that 80s lineup at wolftrap of that list the only act i'm interested in seeing is Martyn Fry er I mean ABC seeing as he's the only remaining member at this point…

I'd pay for that.
Is it just me, or has today been a good "Just Announced" day?
