They did play a very rocking rendition of "Little Drummer Boy."  I thought this show was better than the last time they were in DC and at 930.  I also really like the Outcrowd.  For fans of the Dandys or the Brian Jonestown Massacre.

Dandys rocked out last night, crowd never really got into it. I think Courtney's nonchalantness emanates through their audience. I heard they get pretty high/drunk and mess up live shows but that didnâ??t happen.

I personally enjoyed the show despite the deadness of the crowd.  Plus we were next to a rather rowdy bunch.  The xmas encore was a nice surprise.  There were some slower parts which helped to mix up the set with the more rocking tunes I thought.  I also liked the psychedelic background visuals of women and men gyrating.  And we gotta give it to Courtney for keeping us entertained while Zia kept running out to do her business.  Not complaining about the nice length of the set either.  Since I didn't make the last sold-out show, I can't compare the two.

I thought it was a nice treat to see a two hour set.  DC crowds seem to be pretty subdued.  Which is kind of a bummer when going to see shows here.  It is always nice when the crowd and band get moving.  I wish I knew what that was all about.  I grew up in DC in the area in the late 80s before moving west in the 90s.  The DC scene then seemed pretty burgeoning and rowdy.  A lot of fun.  This is by no means a rip on DC, I just wish I could figure that out.  Granted this is a generalization from one perspective.  So take it all with a grain of salt.  I also enjoyed the outcrowd and think I will try and get over to see them at the Millenium stage today at 6:00 pm.  I hope the Clutch show proves to be raucous.

I also really enjoyed this show. For the most part the crowd appeared at the activity level of organ donor. This was very disappointing. Most everyone there stopped even bobbing when anything from "Come Down" was played, like they never heard of that album.
 
 Glad they didn't play Junkie, but was hoping for Hard on for Jesus or Down like Disco.
 
 The people next to my friend and I really were getting into it too, and we had a really good spot up against a bar so we just jumped around and tried to ignore the low energy level.
 
 The frontman for the Out Crowd was in BJM and it was kind of like BJM without the fights. I enjoyed the Out Crowd and they were a pretty tight band.
 
 At a lot of shows I've been to down here, the artist seems to pick up on the crowd's lack of enthusiasm and it shows in their performance.
 
 Last night the Warhols kept going for a full 2 hours and the mellow stuff gave me a break to swig my beer and chill out before some of the faster tracks.

And they're nice folks too. Here's a story from th Atlanta show that probably made a B/day even better.From the BJM board, of all places   :D                                                                                                                                                                                  i saw the show friday night in atlanta...both bands were great...all of
 my band and our girlfriends/wives went and also our guitar player's son
 whose 13th birthday was that day...matt hollywood hung out and watched
 the dandys with us and was really cool...hadn't met him before...he
 gave my friends son a cd and had the rest of the band and himself sign
 it and wish him happy birthday...his keyboardist/tamborine player,
 sarah jane, was also really nice...then during the dandy's show,
 christian ( friend's son) got to sit on the stage right in front of
 peter...afterwards he gave christian the pick he was using plus the set
 list...then made a special trip backstage to get everyone to sign it
 for him...peter has been super cool and nice every time i've met him,
 and more importantly, he and the outcrowd made christians birthday
 about as perfect as it could've been...he's been playing guitar for
 about two years now and can play a bunch of their songs, so him meeting
 peter and matt, and having them be so cool and going out of their way
 to make his night great meant a lot to all of us...and surely made it a
 night that christian will never forget...so thanks to those
 people...and once again the show kicked ass!
 mark
 
 Nice to see it isn't always ego and pretension. I'm sure that will leave quite a memory for the birthday boy.

Yeah I was lobbying loud for Hard On For Jesus, Courtney heard me and said he forgot the cords ..? I also had a good spot down below near the bar. I think they were charging me $15 a piece for Yeager bombs.   :roll:

Seriously? $15 for a two, or for a single? Wow.

Maybe I'm spelling it wrong but:
 
 1 glass of Red Bull
 1 shot of yeigermiester/yeagermiester.
 
 Drop the shot and bottoms up.  :eek:

Why would you drink something you don't even know how to spell?

they also completely forgot Plan A!  which would've been cool to hear, eh.
 I'll be at DM next Friday.  I'm over Coldplay frankly.
