Sorry to disappoint Mank, but the alt-country shows over at Iota always draw capacity crowds.<BR>   If Seth had his way, we'd be having a lot more Loretta Lynn shows at the 9:30 Club, which would be right fine by me. It would be interesting to know which bands that play the 9:30 are total crap in Seth's mind, but I suppose as a business owner, one wouldn't want to slag the product. Though I do remember him commenting not too favorably on Nellie Furtado. Though she'll probably be such a big star now that she won't play the 9:30 anyomre anyway.

Props to the Brits man, they discover our best music before we do (e.g. Eva Cassidy).

I thought that Josh preferred Lizards to rabbits.<P>Perhaps if Josh gets enough land Rhett will join his commune, well if you get sheep and goats that is?

Maybe capacity at Iota is 50, but I've seen them pack in a good 125-150.<P>   And Steve Earle, Wilco, Lucinda Williams, Kasey Chambers, Ryan Adams, Old 97's, etc... All always sell out or nearly sell out at the 9:30...<P>   Stop giving me a hard time, or i will go and cry in my cowboy boots.
