 ticket information for all other venues on Monday, the hurricane has
 prevented us from supplying you with these details today

Just bought my ticket today, hurrah!  For once, DC has totally lucked out--did anyone else notice that so many of the venues in other cities (Boston, NY, not sure about the Tower Theatre in Philly...) are seated?  B&S were amazing last time they were here, but Constitution Hall was such a drag.  I can't wait to shake my rump and not have to worry about the snarky "sit down!" people around me.

I'm not sure wha's so special about standing up for several hours crunched into a bunch of smoking people who you don't even know, unable to stretch your body. My legs get so fucking stiff, thus I don't goto many 9:30 shows.

Rhett, this is one show you'll be sorry to miss...Belle and Sebastian are easily one of the best bands I've EVER seen!  I wouldn't miss this one for the world.

I have class on Tuesday nights. Otherwise, we'd probably go. This would be a show worth putting up with the discomfort for.
 
 I was only saying that I'd prefer seeing them at a sit down, non-smoking venue where people aren't on top of each other.

I don't blame you...I saw them at the old Black Cat and it was great and worth putting up with. At Constitution Hall, everyone wanted to get up and dance though, and the gestapo security was just downright mean to the audience.  There was a whole lotta love going on...it was quite a shame because the audience was really up for a great show, which we got...but we felt compelled to sit down and it put a bit of a damper on it. But I will still remember that show as being nothing short of absolutely brilliant.  I am so happy that they're coming back.

*sniff* does nobody care that this is the same night as Aesop Rock, Lif and Murs at the Ottobar in Baltimore?
 
 
 anyone?
 
 
 apparently not. *grrr*

It's true, the crowd was really antsy to dance, but there was a positive aspect to the DAR show -- the huge stage allowed for one hell of a stage set up and show.  The light show was amazing (to the disappointment of the friend with me, who was having some migraine issues and the lights going out over the crowd were making her nuts...she wore sunglasses, to little avail.).

I guess that proves my theory that teenagers buy all the concert tickets.

 Oh, come on. Some of the older ones have to be at least 20 by now.   :roll:
Title: Re: belle and sebastian

Teenagers and a few over 20's who suffer from various social and psychological dysfunctions.

Post by: markie on September 22, 2003, 02:12:00 pm
dont you think it would be at least mildly amusing to go.....
 
 Some of the songs are not even completey terrible. "the beautiful people" is straight from the gary glitter book of songwriting.

Not even a $10 show for me but if I could get in for free and up for it, I wouldn't mind. I actually like some of his songs, like that drug song, which I have no clue what it's called. Others, I can't stand. (Not that I'm familiar with all that many of them.)

I'd go to Andrew WK before I'd see MM.
 
 Hell, I'd see Stryper before I'd see MM. Now that would be sort of amusing. MM would just be dumb.

I like the 20 seconds of that Manson song that they play as the Caps skate onto the ice before a game....other than that, he's a friggin idiot, and his acne faced "sk8ter-bois" that are his fan base are welcome to him.
Title: Re: belle and sebastian
Post by: bearman🐻 on September 22, 2003, 03:06:00 pm
I wouldn't pay money to see MM, but I suppose a few songs are OK. I'm glad I'm going to see Echo & the Bunnymen in NYC that night instead!

The group were the Undertones and Feargal Sharkey is actually the blokes name.
 
 Randall, I wouldn't take the piss out of anybody else's name if I were you.....(or me for that matter!!     :D    )
 
 If you saw him when he was with the Undertones...he doesn't look too bad now, relatively speaking!  :eek:

What is wrong with "Randall". That's quite a lovely name. Wish I had that name myself.
