 Holy crap, we finally got a show worth attending here!

Minus the Bear played Alley Katz.  With good openers, too.
 
 That is a pretty awesome double bill, though.

I was referring to Toad's Place which has yet to have a show worth attending.
 
 Obviously there have been decent shows in Richmond at some point.

Ah, okay.  Now that you say that, it was pretty stupid of me to think that that's what you meant.  I took "here" to mean Richmond.

Alley Katz sucks wet dirt.  It is surprising that the fire marshall allows the place to remain open.  The equipment sucks.  The sounds system brekas at most shows.  Its filthy and even the soft drink prices are absurd.  I'll be glad when it finally goes away.

i had no idea his following here would warrant it. he's never played here before, he doesn't get a whole lot of press (does he?) at least no more than any of the other bands that play mainstage. i'd think the black cat would be fitting... or at least 930 would be risky.

Does he have any music playing  in tv commercials or commercial radio? If not, I agree with you.

I've never heard of him.  Likely a reflection on me, but aside from the young kid bands (of hte Fall Out Boy ilk), I've usually heard of the bands playing 9:30.

Yeah, I'm not so sure it will be packed either. DC is a very fickle audience. Some bands can grow quickly here, but generally not without them playing the city at least once. Though, I have been proven wrong before, I bet this doesn't sell out till day of, if at all...

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

You'd probably like him. Sounds a bit like Magnetic Fields, in my estimation.
