Isn't that like every other dance night at DC9?  NOT that I'm complaining...should be a great time.  DC9 rocks.

Doom, they are SO much fun.  They hit Iota once to twice a year, and I've caught about four shows there.  Super fun, super energy, great rock n' roll.  These guys still have it.

 I think I'm going to WSC too.  I've never seen them.

Northeast side of Baltimore... I can PM you directions.
 
 Should be a hott show, the O-Matics are a energtic bunch who play crazy rock and roll.  The Things! are Baltimore answer to the Detroit Cobras.

yikes, PM me the directions, but the prospect of driving all the way to the north side of Bawlmer and then driving home again all tired and bleary-eyed, doesn't sit too well...

  maybe its just me, but the Killers is like one of those guilty pleasure bands for me.

Doom, I haven't checked out Electrotease since its heyday at Five, which was a mixed bag as far as music and crowd.  The cover is usually hefty but is made up by name DJs.
 
 Bags, I just saw the ad in the paper so I can't speak from personal experience..

Just an FYI, that's pretty much DC9's standard playlist....  You can check out their "M21 Music List"  here.

You can stream Two if By Sea  here.
 
 "Translations" is 9 songs of new-wave inspired angular rock... ambient electronics, guitars, live and triggered drums, and voices...creating an original post-punk sound infused with the spirit and sensibility of late 70s/early 80s.

hmm, I might pop by "Between Friends," if only because it will stir memories of Medusa/Strange's DJ nights there when it was called U-Turn, which were always fun  :)

Between Friends is NOT the same place as The U-Turn Bar - just want to make sure everyone knows this!
 
 Between Friends is however right near The U-Turn Bar, but on the same side of U Street as Bohemian Caverns.

Yes, U Turn, which in turn, was reminiscent of Panic to me.  This sounds tempting too, but tomorrow's event is free.
