Run For Cover

[Bombay Chutney]

So who can tell me more about this "Run For Cover" thing at the Black Cat tomorrow night?

"The Dolly Parton Band" should be interesting.

Never mind - I found this at  The Post :
 
  Last year's Run for Cover event at the Warehouse Next Door had an interesting concept: Members of Washington area rock bands formed supergroup-style tribute acts for the night, playing 10-minute sets dedicated to one band -- complete with costumes and all the necessary affectations. It was a blast, and there's another edition tonight on the Black Cat's main stage. The bands and members are a closely guarded secret, but we have it on good authority that you can expect to hear sets dedicated to such artists as Sonic Youth, Oasis, the Modern Lovers, Rush, the B-52s and even an all-female Van Halen. Doors open at 9:30.

I've been planning on going to this for weeks.  It should be awesome.

If you get there early enough, you should be fine. Last year's was held in the tiny Warehouse Next Door, so it was packed and hot as hell in there.
