Colin Meloy of Decemberists at Iota

[godsshoeshine]

want to go friday, work until 6 in fairfax. so...dunno if i'm going to get in

[bellenseb]

Show is at 9:30, which means they don't start selling til 8:30, so I'd say you can make it easy as long as you go straight there.

I got a copy off of a torrent site last night...all I can say is Colin's version of Everyday is like Sunday is possibly one of the most beautiful covers I have every heard...I am pissed I did not put it on my mp3 player before I left for work this morning.

  Anyone going to this?  If so would you be willing to pick me up a copy of the tour only EP w/ Colin covering Morrissey songs?  I already have tickets to Bob Mould in Annapolis for that night but would like a copy of the EP.  thanks.

I've heard that and is the main reason I want it, thanks for the review.

i'm really psyched for this show ... i haven't been to the iota when it's packed/sold out ... when should i show up to be sure i get tix?  the girlfriend and i were thinking about going down for dinner before-hand ...

Just try to be at the front door right around 8:30. If you're eating dinner in the Iota Cafe at that time, you're guarunteed admission (they come around) so that might be the easiest option for you.

hunh, thought they started selling earlier. definately sounds better, now

I'm under the impression the rule is about an hour before the scheduled show time, but you could call and confirm this if you're worried.

I'll be there for the Colin Meloy show, and tonight to see  Willy Mason. How's the food at Iota, btw?

There's little doubt that this show will sell out, right?

Well the decemberists sold out the downstairs and upstairs of Blackcat, then had a good showing at 930. I am guessing it'll be busy.

when did they play the backstage? pissed i missed that...
 
 and yeah, the food is pretty good there

[lily1]

8.30pm arrival time? and he won't take the stage until about 10.30 i'm guessing? guess i'll need to go straight from the office. i was going to show up around 10 but i think all i'll get is the SOLD OUT sign.
 
 btw, food at iota is ok, not great, kinda pricey. go to singh thai or minh's instead.

[brennser]

that backstage show was great
