11/4 and 11/5 tickets are $58 - $78 plus ticketbastard shafting. Still gotta do it though I think.

 all these bands are SUPPOSED to be coming to DC sometime later this year.

those 3 are on my list, along with:
 tortoise (they did some west coast dates and were doing field day and are doing bonnaroo -- other dates coming?)
 kraftwerk - they've played shows in japan/europe/australia/new zealand in the past 10 months.  hoping they'll come back here.
 einsturzende neubauten - it's only a matter of time.
 
 however i'm not limiting myself to waiting on dc or only going to dc.  i will be travelling all over for all of those bands to hit as many shows as i reasonably can.

Are you gonna throw your crusty knickers up on stage?  I was at a pub in Chester a couple of weeks ago and had the pleasure of listening to a Tom Jones cd of him doing modern day cover songs.  Pathetic!

 kraftwerk were suppose to play tibetian freedom concert, but were bumped off the schedule at the last minute due to the schedule changes.  why they were even schedule to do that festival and not a local club is beyond me.  seeing as they basically bring their entire studio with them to perform live.  not exactly the thousands of marks of equipment one wants toting out on a festival stage. but a kraftwerk show would be great nonetheless, their 1998 show in detroit was amazing by all accounts.

>>> I've been back in the D.C. area since '94 and Kraftwerk,I assure you has NOT played anywhere near D.C. since then......I would have been there.....I went to that god awful Tibetan show to see them and they,of course, did not play........with no excuse ever given why they weren't there.........I did get to see a really shitty set by R.E.M.,though.....
