Hey 9:30, why do you keep putting on these super cool special events when all everybody does is bitch about it?
They bitched because they didn't like the ticket buying process.
They bitched if they didn't get tickets.
They bitched about standing line.
They bithced because they couldn't smoke.
They bitched about not having bottled beers.
They bithced because there were too mnay people, yet not enough tickets.
They bitched because you guys were preventing scalping.
They bitched that they were patted down.
They bitched that the sponsor's DJ suck.
They bitched about the sponsors banner.
They bitched because young people got in.
They bitched that the band was late.
They bitched because the band didn't play long enough.
They bitched that the band didn't play instruments.
They bitched because the band made poor travel plans.
They bitched because you guys were keeping order.
They bitched because because they felt like they were back in high school.
They bitched because one member wasn't in full Beastie mode.
I mean, why do you even bother trying to please the greater DC area and bring cool bands in?
By the way, though I wasn't at the show, I'll be the first on the board to say "thanks" for bringing cool shit 'cause you rock, not just thanks for answering all my bitchy questions.
Nice one smackie…..I never bitched, but then again I never went….coincidence? :D
How many Americans does it take to change a light bulb?
51….1 to change the bulb, 10 to complain, 10 to write a complaint, 10 to return the blown bulb and 20 to file suit.

Honestly, does this old dog have any new tricks?

are you on your period or are you always this bitchy & structured :eek: ? Hail Hilter Hail Hilter
I told a friend, no matter what anyone did to accommodate everyone, they would complain. Just the way this town is. You guys got free pizza and got to watch break-dancing. ;) (btw, where is flawd?) Concert-going, travel scheduling and Mother Nature is not an exact science. I'm sure the guys were complaining at the airport as you all were for their arrival. I still figure they will be back around here for another show soon. (Oh, I did bitch about the banner, but I would complain about it yesterday or today.)

I went. Got tickets at the presale. Drove up from Richmond. Sttod in line for a long time. Got rained on. Showed my ID. Was searched (well if you want to call it that). Got inside. Sat at the upstairs bar stools. Drank cokes and ate pizza. Saw a show. Hung out at the back bar. Drove home. Oh yeah I saw a show and had a good time.
The guys at the club had their shit together. They wanted to minimize the scalpers thing (among other things) and it appears they did it for the most part. I would have liked to have seen a longer show, and it maybe the whole thing did take a lot more effort than the show I saw, but it was good and I had a blast.
See y'all the next time I venture up 95.

there was free pizza???
shit…i shouldn't have left in search of cheaper beers
actually, i don't care if i missed the free pizza…if there were free beer i'd be mad
but all in all, i thought everything at the club was run in a fair and efficient manner…it sucked that the band was late, but whatever, gives you a good story to tell..i had a good time

most bands would've bailed as soon as their flight was cancelled - and these guys went and got on a train
I was very impressed

Originally posted by poultrynow:If you weren't blown away by 40 mins of BB you must be an idiot…they are one of the most influential bands that have ever recorded, and nothing short of creative genius's. They only release fun party songs as singles just to keep their talents a secret from the masses, and only the chosen few get to hear the real work of these masters of sampling. Shame on you for expressing anything less than god-like worship about this trio.
I second that sentiment about an earlier flight. I thought the 1-hour set was tight and we had a great time, but after waiting 5+ hours the word on the street outside the club (that I heard) was that the show was a major letdown. Maybe if they had gone on at 8:30 and played an hour, fine, but after having us wait so long, at least put on a reasonable show. Anyone with an eye towards weather knew that we were in for some nasty thunderstorms yesterday. That said, I wish I had put my dollars to Neko Case instead this week.
