This thing is such a drain on our community, its time someone said it. What a wildly, wildly disproportionate amount of posts are spent in a thread that in no way fosters discussion or interaction among our community and, in fact, requires ancillary Commentary threads to ensure people don't have meaningful posts back and forth with each other. And its basically, at this point, 4 or 5 people posting a bunch of show announcements for concerts no one would even consider seeing. These people could be posting in higher-value threads and having discussions -- and making memories -- instead of racking up astronomical post counts on nothing.
I ask you all sincerely, when was the last HoF-caliber moment in Just Announced? The last fight? The last day-long bull session? Never. Why are we still floating this thing?

Actually it helped me to find the Gene Clark Tribute show and the Arcade Fire show. Really, the just announced thread is the reason I come to the forum. Posting in other forums is just a way to kill time before the next just announced post occurs.
-
I come to see all the trolls bait each other into discussing nonsense. ^^^
-
Admittedly, the Just Announced post is the reason I started coming to this board many years ago...
-
I check it all the time. If people would save their major rants for the commentary section, it could be a just announced thread yet again.

That's what "they" want you to believe. What are you going to remember a decade from now? The energetic discussions about life we had? The fierce debates over personal passions? Rhett calling that one girl a porky midget? ... OR... a dry recitation of Baltimore noise-rock house shows provided with no commentary or discussion thereof?
There have been a lot of great moments in this community. None of them took place in Just Announced. Are we a society or are we ShowListDC? (No offense intended to ShowListDC.)

Are you trying to say that people don't care about the history of Shitstains?

Are you trying to say that people don't care about the history of Shitstains?
I think, with all due respect, you'd be a more valuable member of this community if instead of telling us where the Shitstains are playing, you would call another member a Shitstain in a way that fosters an impassioned discussion of your respective views on a matter and leads to a greater sense of community among us all.
-
In his defense, he's done his share or calling me some rather un-nice names. I'd say he flings shit as well as listening to shit (music).

I wasn't trying to imply he didn't have an ability to be an asset to our community. The siren song of Just Announced is just too great and it lulls too many potentially-productive members of our society into spending their entire boardie career being a de facto event calendar.

The Just Announced thread is pretty much the only reason I signed up for this message board and continue to post here. Do away with all the threads and I'd be fine. There's a Commentary thread where all that discussion SHOULD go in. I try not to intervene with too many comments, I'd appreciate just show announcements in there, but what else can I do. I'm just a forum member.
-
I always thought you were here solely to share your insightful and often witty local professional sports commentary.

I agree...I really like the JA thread, but wish the commentary on every post went on the other thread

You mean the way Just Announced has shut up a thousand potential memorable conversations?
-
If you don't want to be a part of that conversation just do not open it up. Problem solved.

Am I supposed to be reading this with a teenage girl's voice echoing in my head? Those periods make it sound so Cluelessy.

That is so amazing how your other senses are so much more acute to make up for the one that is ailing. The human body is fascinating.

What he said, I only open about 25% of the threads on this here board.

expand your mind yada . . . yeah most threads are silly, but arent most paths in life the same sort of silly, sometimes. i also am enjoying, azags little kibbles and bits to the conversation.

I have no interest in reading about the Skins walky.. or the pitching staff of the Orioles... or any pitching staff for that matter.
-
I'm still a little sad that my attempt to bait Ratbastard in the Youtube thread appears to have failed.
-
One possible solution would be to make JA a stand-alone forum with individual threads for each show annoucement. That way folks could comment on shows in a logical place and those not interested could easily ignore the posts and just look at new threads for new shows.
-
Bolwing what have hipsters gone and done now?
I meant to put curling
-
Attempting to curl with a bowling ball seems to be something a hipster or bro would attempt.
-
burling

Everyone should just post in my Whisk(e)y thread or one of the other intoxicating threads I have discovered and developed like my own personal garden.

that's because he can't run youtube since he still uses netscape navigator as his browser.

is the e in parenthesis referring to ecstasy? can we post about our molly experiences?
-
you have got to be kidding me... the just announced thread is the #1 thread on this board BY FAR... the fact that occasionally someone, including me, posts something off topic or it goes off the rails doesn't mean its not generally quite helpful....
-

I don't drink whiskey. We should have a Mad Dog 20/20 thread.

If that's a serious question, you clearly don't get Julian.

The JA thread is the reason I started coming on here. Looks like I am not the only one in that boat. Its the first thread I check when I log on. I do enjoy pretty much everything else on this board though. I think its ok to post some relevant discussion/commentary in the JA thread as long as there is a show announcement somewhere in your post.
-
The JA is the most popular thread on this forum.
Solution for you: don't click/read the JA. Why do you even care? You live in Richmond...the thread's not even for you.
And its basically, at this point, 4 or 5 people posting a bunch of show announcements for concerts no one would even consider seeing.

I wonder, has there ever been a show announced that NO ONE has attended let alone considered 'going seeing'?

Guys, I appreciate -- and am so humbled by -- your affinity for Julian's America, but let's deal with this concert listing menace right now and how people can better allocate their time by having meaningful discussions with other boardies!
-

I would wager easily a third of the shows posted about in the last 12 months had no boardie with 10+ posts in attendance.

I don't know. Agazhel, KillSally, and ShowlistDC seem to go to a ton of shows.
-
to answer the OP's original question: no, we can't. let's, as a group, find the collective strength to move on.
-
...let's deal with this concert listing menace right now and how people can better allocate their time by having meaningful discussions with other boardies!
Basically, you would prefer people allocate their time to "meaningful" discussions like your "look at me, I'm drunk" thread.
-
I propose that since this is a board for a music venue, that all non-music discussion and threads be deleted immediately and anyone who talks about anything other than music, be banned for life.
Jeez, don't you people use Facebook or Twitter?

Its not "me," it's "we," brother! I would like all of us to be looking at each other's drunkeness! It takes a village!

And in your alternate proposal, we would only be discussing IMP shows, yes? Ostensibly, this "board for a music venue" wasn't created to provide free advertising for Fearless Leader's competitors, no?

First off you can't troll on Facebook or your wife gets mad at you. Second no one uses twitter.

Think of the forum as the BackBar, where I'm sure people discuss all manner of non music topics...

I really know no one in real life who uses twitter. Almost everyone uses Facebook to some degree. I think most of the twitter accounts aren't real. I can't wait for it to go away so I never have to hear about it anymore.
Anyway I think most new technologies are actually are negatives to society. Video Games, Smart Phones, Tablets, Netflix, Twitter all stuff to keep you from doing stuff with your life. Shit people don't even e-mail anymore. I guess that is why message boards have gone down hill as it requires you to actually make the effort to type a thought out and use punctuation.
-
The only person I ever really see talking about Twitter is you. I can't wait for you to go away. If I'm being honest.
Which I am.

I would trust your opinion except all you seem to care about is sports and some sports team that you have no affiliation to winning a championship which they never seem to do. If your local sports team winning championships is so important to you then you should move to Boston. Here is the clue: Spectator sports are purely entertainment and who wins or loses should not affect you one bit.

Isn't Tom Tom a GPS? No, I don't really care that much about you but you do seem to be to sports what RatBastard is to politics.

I don't know if that's good or bad. I just like talking about sports and what not.

This is sort of how I feel about Rhett. You know how in politics we talk about people being "job creators?" Well, whatever one thinks of Rhett or myself, there's no denying we're content creators. Other people post show listings and make minimal contributions and we are out there, every day, creating threads and getting people talking. We are selflessly keeping this community alive. We are the people paying the proverbial 40+% tax rate.

ShowlistDC relies on the JA thread for a lot of the small/DIY concert announcement and notices. I don't think any of the shows at Verizon Center / DAR / 9:30 slip beneath anyone's radar (especially people on this forum), but is there value to making mention of it here? For sure.
I'm a big fan of the JA thread-- it helps me do my job. I'd probably be able to find most of that information elsewhere, but it's great having it in a centralized spot like this one.
-

Yeah, we're not doing this. Maybe somebody with more computer skills than I can create a script for you so that you never have to see that thread ever. Then again, if you're getting your announcements from SLDC, you should be happy that JA exists.

Ditto -- I rarely post anymore as I'm just too busy, and the rock scene/local scene is less of my life these days (just in time for Friends with Benefits -- back in the day I might own a booth downstairs after a year or two), but I check Just Announced once or twice a week to be sure I'm not missing anythng, and to know what presales to look out for. Personally I wouldn't mind if that thread were ONLY show announcements without the commentary. But I can forage through the chit chat and find the info I desire. Keep it up, folks!

What does "Julian's America" have to do with anything?
Plenty of people appreciate what Showlist does; but I doubt anyone other than yourself cares about whatever "Julian's America" is.
Whatever inspires you to keep on keeping on.

If showlist wants anyone to user her website she should learn basic html and css skills. I told her this and she got all mad. If your website looks like it was made by a middle school student in 1996 it isn't going to get a lot of hits.
-
1. It is a list of shows. It doesn't need to be fancy.
2. How do you know it doesn't get a lot of hits? Do you have access to the analytics of the website?
3. Have you looked at other showlist pages? They are about the same. http://showlistaustin.com/ A list of shows.
4. Before showlistDC came around, I used to have to visit around 10 to 20 different venue pages every week to see what was happening. Now I can go to one site. I am so glad she started doing her website. It and showspace are two of the most valuable tools for keeping track of all of the shows in this area.

OMG, you don't just like her you LIKE like her!

yeah lets stop cluttering up the board with discussions about upcoming concerts and focus more on baby shopping and retirement plans..

atomic, that would not have worked for me since maybe a tenth of all of the shows in this area are "announced" here.
-
I look at Just Announced almost daily. I'm pretty on it as far as knowing what's going on around town - but sometimes someone posts something noteworthy I didn't know about. It's pretty much the first reason I click on the forum.
-
the fact that so many of you are taking Julian's suggestion of killing Just Announced seriously, and engaging in a debate about it, is fucking hilarious.
c'mon folks. pull it together, see the joke, and stop feeding the troll.
-

So what you are stating is 'Just Announced" is worthless and should be shut-down?
-
I am saying it is one of many tools that a person could use to plan their live-music adventures. It is not a complete picture of what is happening in DC or Baltimore on any given day.
