yeah will probably see them….gotta catch the mayors band play earlier in the day of course.

Must be cool to have a mayor who is a rock star. My wife said he was hot when we accidentally saw them at Artscape a couple of years ago. maybe she just goes for Irishskis (what her Polish grandmother calls we folks of Irish descent).

I'll be heading up to charm city. I wonder how long they will play this time. They certainly wonâ??t play as long as they did at the last 9:30 show (3+ hours).

Is it worth getting there early? Are there lots of things to things to see and do?

I'll probably go. I'd expect a one hour set, maybe 90 min. if you are lucky.

Plenty of other stuff to see if you get there early. A mix of good art and utter crap. The art cars are alway good. Parking can be a bit of a hassle.

If you do, give him my "regards" as well.

SO they go on at 8:30, right? Can anyone give me a heads up as to the location? I could look it up, but I'm lazy.

Truckers will be playing 8:30-10.

please, former mayor, thank you

that's the exmayor

dc mayor: bowtie wearer/bringer of baseball

I'll never forget the day they had a picture of Mayor Williams, shirtless and in swim trunks, in the Express. What a sexy guy!

At least he wasn't shirtless in a motel room with a hooker!

Yeah, it is strange considering they are one of the closers on what I believe is the biggest stage. If you click the link at the bottom of the article for "complete schedule" they get a mention.

Overall I'm not too impressed with this year's musical lineup. And if you've never been to Artscape beware: as much as I like it and there are some really cool things going on, at times it can have a "state fair" feel to it with some of the people who attend and some of the junk stands.
