Oh reaaaaalllly

Kind of stinks it's not at the club... why would I want to sit down for this show?

I can see why some acts would be OK at Lincoln but its too bad the Breeders are not at the club..

[grateful]

They'd have to bump elbow off the stage...

I'm glad the Breeders are stopping by DC...they don't tour that often...I'm forgetting how many years ago was the Last Splash Redux Tour

Is there some talk of it shutting down? I hadn't heard this.

I can;t wait to applaud the Howard's transparency when they leak their own emails proving they aren't paying their staff.

I've only been to one show there and it's the only place in my life I ever walked out on a bill. We had seats and waited nearly an hour to close our tab while asking for our check twice, so we just left. Thrifty!
