High Dials Roll Call

[chaz]

So who's going?  They're the openers and doors are at 9:00.  It's been a while since I've been to a backstage show....what time do you all think it might start?

[MaLo]

I'm going
 
 i have no clue about either band..my friend likes the Phobes, so i'm just going with him

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

the Phobes are kind of a 60s pop outfit that would've sounded right at home on a billing with the Kinks and the Who circa 1965.  I don't know anything about the other band, except Jaguar says they're good, which is good enough for me.  

[Bags]

I want to go, but may not be able to make it....        I'll make up for it next week!

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

if you don't go, I'll take it personally and be deeply offended!

[Bombay Chutney]

I'll probably go, unless we have another work-related disaster.  I've never heard of the High Dials other than on this board.  The Phobes are your basic garage-type stuff.  More Nuggets-like than the newer garage-rock stuff.

I got The High Dials cd last week, it is good, but I can't make it tonight.

[kurosawa-b/w]

I'm going!

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

kuro:  groovy  

[snailhook]

i'll be there. i'm looking forward to checking out the high dials live, and the phobes are a pretty good local band (nothing groundbreaking, but fun).
 
 knowing the backstage on a thursday, the high dials will go on between 9:30 and 9:45, depending on crowd size at 9:30.

[Bags]

Thanks, snailhook, for the likely set times.

[Bombay Chutney]

Does that mean you changed your mind, Bags?  Feeling better?

[Bags]

I'm going to play it by ear...I have a dinner in VA, so it could well be on my way home and at the right time.  If so, I may as well pop by and just check out the H.D.'s  It's probably 50/50...

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

nice to see you Jaguar and Kurosawa (and I think also Snailhook?)   The Phobes had some very good moments, and I thought the High Dials were just amazing.  I was bummed they went on last, I had to leave halfway through their excellent set and didn't get to see what they were going to do with the sitar sitting teasingly on the edge of the stage.  

[Bags]

The High Dials headlined?  In that case, I probably would have missed it anyhow.  Glad it was a good show for those who went.
