Roll Call: Rhett Miller

Where are you possibly going to hear cover songs of artists from Elvis Presley and Bing Crosby to the Pixies and the Ramones, all in the same set? Well you'r egoing to have to be a the Black Cat Saturday Night. Showtime is 7 pm, there is an opener, and it all has to finish before 10 pm, since there is a separate show following that.

I've seen Rhett solo four times on this tour, but this is the performance I'm most looking forward to. This time, he won't be limited by a hired backing band whose knowledge of his back (Old 97's) catalog is limited. Nor will he suffer from the time limitations and marginal crowd interest that being an opening act present.

I'll be the big wuss with trendy glasses, short hair, goatee, medium height and build, with the pretty wife. I know that all makes me sound like Mankie, but I'm really a totally different person.
Present!

Rhett Miller is in a cover band?
I am hoping Rob Pollard bought me and my special one tickets too?

maybe I meant Samantha? I am sure she is special too. Oh, I guess I am not helping things, am I?

thanks for getting tickets though. Did they tut and moan like selling tickets was the biggest chore ever?

no, they were quite nice actually, and while standing there, I realized that the woman taking tickets was the drummer I saw while getting soaked by rain before D Plan on Monday night

thats cool. The only reason I didnt go to Rilo Kiley is I hate the drag of getting tickets. Thats a job much better delegated to you.

Hey Guiny have you ever been to a Rhett Miller show? Its a lot better than some of that 80s shite you go and see.
Anybody know if the Food for Thought Cafe food is edible, and if it would open before the 7 PM showtime?

i heard it isn't that bad, but i've never tried it myself. it might open early because of the early showtime, too.

the nachos are good, then again it is basically just cheese melted on chips
Ah, so my wife just found a place to eat seven days a week. :)
