That does not sound awful. That sounds like the DIY spaces in Baltimore that are in warehouses where people also live and practice their own music and make their own art. What would be awful about that? No bar? Hipsters? Musicians? Artists?

Some of the places in Baltimore sell beer. I think mostly Nattie Boh. But you can bring in your own beer. The only problem I ever have with these places is the bathroom situation. As they only have one bathroom things can back-up. Usually a few bucks to get in and you can bring your own alcohol so what is not too like? I guess most of them also allow smoking. That could be a negative.
Heart @ DAR.
are folks taking walkies seriously on this? the guy complains that visiting DC = automatic mugging and stabbing. anything outside his cabin is automatically the apocalypse. y'all been trolled.
Magnetic Fields, Saturday at 6&I
I'm totally turning into that old guy who just goes and sees his favorite 90s bands when they come through town.

hipster kids + arty kids + questionable music - bars with good alcohol = awful

You can bring your own alcohol. So if there is no good alcohol it is your own fault.
bring your own drinks to a show?
odd.
odd.
In Baltimore, you can also bring your own pot.
That is still frowned upon in the DC DIY spaces now although it was not that way always.

People like to throw out the hipster label. Just liking non-mainstream music doesnt make a person a hipster. Nor does going to shows at DIY venues.
Arty = creative and smart usually.
Not everyone drinks. Not everyone likes to have to be around a bunch of drunk people while they watch bands. If you absolutely need to be drunk to watch your favorite bands, they might suck. You might also have a problem.
(trolling response, dont really care btw)
Yeah pretty much all of that.
So that Pharmakon set was pretty damn intense for anybody into that sort of thing.

People on this board do not like popular bands and they don't like bands that play DIY venues. It appears the only thing they like is classic rock. or bands that mimic classic rock (MMJ). Come on guys get with the program.. And how do not know about DIY venues if you spend all your time on a music forum? . I have been going to them since the early 80's.
Anyway my wife is an MICA alumni and she doesn't care too much for most of the DIY venues. I do find it interesting that they don't have security at such venues but I have never seen a fight at one since the skinheads stop attending around 1985.
The Hush Sound in Philly on Friday
Deerhoof, tonight!
i like how people think just because i like to have a beer at show, then i have to have a beer at a show, and i have a problem. no, i don't have a fucking problem unless of course the beer they serve is shitty. what a weird fucking concept . . . having a fucking drink at a show. yes, everybody who drinks alcohol is a fucking alcoholic.

plenty of people saw joy formidable at st stephens this past saturday, both popular and DIY. so your theory is silly.
and it's not that people dislike popular bands. people like talking about popular bands because there will always be a conversation to be had about whether someone is genuinely talented or manufactured bullshit.
