Title: Odds Someone Answers the Phone at 393 0930
Post by: TheNomad on November 08, 2005, 02:46:00 pm
I'm going to go with 7 - 1.  Although, I've never had anyone actually answer the phone when I call so maybe I should drop those odds.
 
 Maybe I should also ask the over/under for number of rings before someone answers.  I'd say 15 might be fair.  I usually hang up around then and like I said, I've never had a call answered so I don't have any good evidence to base those odds on.
 
 Thoughts?

Someone call him and ask for Coheed and Cambria set times. It'll be funny.

i think anyone with a fairly good head on their shoulders would get piss-mad at the mere  mentioning of Coheed and Cambria.

Is he going to digitally beat my ass?
 
 I think it's pretty obvious from my comments that *I* personally am not calling him. Chill out, Kosmo, you used to be cool.

I thought this thread would be about the the Odds reforming and playing at the club. Oh well.
 Maybe they have caller id.  ;)  
 When I call, they pick up and are most friendly and helpful. Yet, I use a different number. Isn't the number you posted the [old] hotline?
 (Psst, I think Kosmo's comment was meant to be funny as well.)

have some sympathy for those of us who have had the misfortune of actually SEEING the band.
 
 i sat there for 40 minutes 5 feet away from the singer.  i should have punched him or something.   (this was at a bar almost 4 years ago.. there were a total of 25 people at the show)
 opener: coheed & cambria
 headliner: explosions in the sky.

For the record-- 393-0930 is the number to 930's concert line-- a recorded message of upcoming shows. Our concert line machine actually broke recently; our new machine just arrived and should be up and running within a few days. But a live person will NEVER, EVER answer at that number!
 
    to get a live person, call the box office at 265-0930. we usually pick up on the first ring. word.

it is the same guy.
 i don't know if he had gigantic hair or not because he was wearing a baseball cap the entire set.

Remember, thatguy is an employee of the 930 club as security so will not digitally beat your ass, but simply escort you off the internet.  :roll:

Wow. People actually remember that show. Odds were one of the great power pop bands in the 90s.
 
 Craig Northey (from Odds) is doing a tour in the new year. I'm hoping he manages to book a DC date - it'll probably be at a place like DC9.

Yeah, currently Craig's side project is: Stripper's Union. Next year, he'll tour w/ Jesse Valenzuela. NYC date is set (BB Kings). I'm  guessing, RHT in MD might be another...But I'm hoping to bring them even closer in to DC/VA [as well].
 Read his blogs on MySpace and his website. He's a very funny and smart guy!
