The three tours I'd like to see most are skipping DC (WHY are these shows playing the rest of the EAST COAST and skipping DC?????):
Neil Young/Wilco
DBT/Hold Steady
Okkervil River
And there's not much else going on in October or November. Booooo!
Hey, if anybody has a Fleet Foxes ticket to sell me for twice the face or less, PM me! I was lazy and missed the boat.
-
Any bets on where Leonard Cohen will play on his rumored 09 US tour?
-
Lots going on in Oct and Nov. Tons. Just not sure you are into them. Too bad about Okkervil River..with Crooked Fingers opening :(
-
Of course there's lots going on. Just not much I like.
I remember previous Fall seasons that had TOO MANY shows I liked, this one doesn't have nearly enough! I guess it all evens out.

I'd be more inclined to go to that BTS show if Dino Jr. were on the bill.
And would be more inclined to go to one of the NYC ones if Dino Jr. were headlining.
-
While I should be celebrated, unfortunately I have no performances scheduled for fall. Sorry.

He means the real NKOTB, not the fake one.

Jenny Lewis
Wire
Aggrolites
World Inferno Friendship Society
Henry Rollins
Bad Brains
October/November looks great.
-
yeah bad brains is gonna be epic acually nov 4
-
I do think there's been a slight drop off. October/November is usually my busiest time of the year for concert-going, and the pickings have been a little slim compared to past years. Or maybe I'm just getting old. But here's what I have planned so far:
Nick Cave (x2)
The Rosebuds
Hotel Cafe Tour (I've fallen in love with Thao Nguyen!)
The Decemberists
Robyn Hitchcock
Speaking of Jenny Lewis, I could really use a ticket for her show if anyone has an extra. I was out of town when they went on sale. Would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I wouldn't count on that. BB have been known for erratic and underwhelming live shows for a long time.
That said, I might go. Some old pals from richmond might come up for this so i may go for the hang. But don't count on a frantic set from the bad brains.
just hope hr stays on stage and doesn't make a mockery of the songs and audience.
hopefully the fact that this is on election night will bring something to the table as far as the show is concerned. on second thought, maybe I'll just stay home and watch the returns.
-
well ac dc ain't chopped liver....
i agree shows have slowed down
still i've got
cave, acdc (two shows), robert pollard (maybe), the wailers, tina turner, magnetic fields (may sell the tickets), black crowes
if leonard cohen comes to dc it will be either the warner theater or strathmore or lisner or constitution hall.. i'm sure they 're taking offers...

Out of all of the shows mentioned so far, only two are of any interest to me.
Fleet Foxes, which is sold o ut.
Of Montreal. I might want to see them, but too often the singer sounds like Alvin from the Chipmunks.
-
Of Montreal have left me bitter both times I've seen them.
Never again...
They're putting more and more of an emphasis on the theatrical aspect of their show and less on actually playing the music. They've been relying more and more on backing tracks and don't sound like a tight live band at all because Kevin spends half his time up there playing dressup.
It's the studio stuff for me from here on out.
-
Thanks for that review. You just saved me $18. Perhaps I'll look around for another show to see instead, while sitting at home listening to Satanic Panic.
