Were we at the same show!? I was towards the back, or actually close to these 10 guys who seemed to be on drugs or something and shouted random things the whole show, and switched position every 10 seconds until they could create their massive mosh pit after one hour or so. Obviously my attempts to have them shut up were met with laughing(?) and more shouting. Of course I am very sorry if I bothered them in their fun evening.

there was definitely a mosh pit, and it was definitely annoying and stupid.

Yeah, the mosh pit seemed quite aggressive, I saw them pushing people violently from the back probably just on the purpose of annoying the people standing still. From their comments and constant laughing, I think pretty much everything they did was directly to annoy the "too quiet" people.

My husband said the crowd was a little chattery towards the bar, but otherwise was a good show.
Thought the crowd at The Both was great! Good show.

Then whoever the special guest is better be freakin' good. And if Grohl is in the house, it will be something great. Some evenings are just special regardless of who shows up, and there'll be a lot of talent on stage tonight.

Wed : Mogwai
Sun : A Silver Mt. Zion
For Mogwai I should have thought about set times before buying the ticket. It would probably have been more convenient to see them in Philly where the set time is normal.

Maybe, but I don't want to say yes for sure because I need to go to Annapolis Friday night.
If I can do both, I will.

Ended up at Haim last night courtesy of a friend with a free extra ticket. That was fun.
So that's 3 shows at the 930 in 6 days. Makes me feel good. Haven't done that in a while.
Balkan Beat Box at the Howard on Saturday-discounted tickets courtesy of Goldstar. Surely I am not the only one going to this from the board?
Keren Ann at 6th and I is a possibility for Sunday.
Probably Morcheeba on Wednesday if I can get a cheap ticket. I'm not paying $50 for that.
Missing a bunch of stuff later next week and weekend since I will be out of town.
