Psych Furs....

…anyone going?
If it helps anybody get off the fence, I saw them 2 weeks ago in SF and they were brilliant (but I'm very biased as I think Richard Butler is the consummate rock star). Just a nonstop good time.

Berlin played with the Furs so I also went to see just how hot Terri Nunn is in real person, and damn, she's smokin hot.

And The Pleased opened and again they were god awful.
I am. These set times are damn good for a Monday night…

Doors open at 7:30
The Pleased 8:45
The Psychedelic Furs 10:00
See you there, not that I know what the heck you look like!

Smackie,

WE'RE ON OUR WAY TO CARDIFF, WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED
WE'RE ON OUR WAY TO CARDIFF, WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED
JUST LIKE A DREAM THAT'S STANDING BY THE WATERSIDE
WE SHALL NOT BE MOVED!

How sweet was that on Saturday?? :D :D :D

Why am I not surprised that you will be at the Psych Furs? Mank, you're going to love it! Richard Butler is just the man. In all black, sunglasses on, one foot up on the monitor as he belts out "Love my Way" - it's the way music used to be!

To bad you guys won't be getting Berlin too. And don't waste your time with The Pleased. I've saw them twice in one month and was ready to slit my wrists.

And then there was Saturday. So there's this new British guy in my building. He moved in two weeks ago and I invited him over to watch the Premeirship match and he didn't show up. So I invited him over for Saturday's FA Cup match and he shows up in an Arsenal Jersey. I'm like "What that f#$%?!!?" Turns out he's from London, this Arsenal supporter amidst my Man U friendly household. And I've already offered this guy breakfast! Not good times!!!

Then Carroll makes the first save and things turn around. Scholes scores and then we got to watch Arsenal just whither. They may be having the best season but they were exposed by United and guess what, they are still french and can still be flustered. They completely fell apart and had no flow the entire second half. They looked like an MLS team out there on Saturday. I hope Chelsea were watching. I think Chelsea can overcome them in the Premiership and there's no way the Arseanl squad that played on Saturday can win the Champion's League.

It was fantastic!

You're slagging the wrong one mate….I support Ireland 'almost' as much as England. Losing to Ireland isn't really painful for me. I go with the old, "may the best team win" in those circumstances…losing to the frogs though, I still haven't gotten over that one.
I'll be there, although i won't be drinking since i got sloshed at the Liz Phair concert last night, just a sprite for me thank you.

How was that show? Did you see the Phair/Mraz show so you can compare? How long did she play? Did you catch Wheat?
:p

But will he be wearing the string of pearls? ;)

Evidently not only Wheat, but barley and hops too!

I thought the show was really good although you couldnt really understand alot of what she was singing. She had one of those head mic's on. I thought she sounded better at the Phair/Mraz show personally. But i still enjoyed it. She signed my ticket stub afterwards :cool: . I didnt really care for Wheat and that seemed to be what everyone around me thought also. Oh yeah she played for about an hour and fifteen minutes. Sorry, no set list.
Hey Bags….what do you look like and will you be wearing anything I would notice? I'll come over and say "wot's occuring darl'n" if I see you tonight.

It is okay that myself and another burbanite venture into your city tonight isn't it? Sorry, it was a bit presumptious of me not to ask earlier…. ;)
Hmmm, okay, I'll wear my cranberry Amoeba t-shirt, as you can see it from just about anywhere. That logo is BRIGHT.

I welcome everyone in to the city. Really – come spend your money! But I don't want them trying to tell me I can't smoke in D.C. bars unless they move into the city and pay taxes here… :D Though, in the end no one from that the suburbs appeared to be doing that. I was just checkin'.
I'll probably be at the right side bar again, towards the front. I'm predictable if anything.

I'll be on a liberal rant (likely along the "Anyone but Bush" theme), wherever I am. :D
Just between bands, though. I only talk during the show when Markie's there…

Smackie, about how long did the Furs play? Just curious….thx. Your review has inspired me to stick with a Monday night show…
I think I'm gonna go. I'm going solo, but I'm gonna pick up an extra ticket because of the 2-4-1. If anyone wants to buy it off of me, let me know.
