Just Announced

[vansmack]

New Thread.  You guys are screwing up Just Announced.

[hippo]

I don't know, inbetween announcements, why not commentary?
 
 P.S. Small clubs are great but you're going to hear a lot of shitty bands before you hear a good one. Ten percent rule.

 Yes!

This just in in "indie is the new mainstream" news:
 
 Animal Collective
 10/5
 Conan
 
 
 Good for them. Strawberry Jam is pretty much perfect except for that annoying transition or lack there of from Chores>For Reverend Green.

 930 Club 11/13

Ten percent rule at small clubs beats the five percent rule at Verizon Center.

 Fuck no.

To be fair to "some girl," I believe she had gone to see Interpol the night or two nights before at the Norva which was a wicked show, and I think she commented that in comparison to the wad of money she dropped on police tickets the Interpol show was better from a quality/cost and more enjoyable overall than the Police show.  
 
 If you interpret that as saying that Interpol is better than the Police live, that's OK because it's phuckin true.  
 
 But again we're comparing apples and oranges, I know you've never seen a Interpol headline show in a modestly sized venue, nor are you familiar with their material and I'm willing to bet she doesn't sniff Sting's jock like some Police fans do, so you both approached the shows from a different vantage point, so I think both perspectives are valid except of course for the fact that the Police at this point aren't entertaining enough to be invited to sell merch at a Interpol show     :p      
 
 But I only say this with the love I have for you homie     :cool:

That "some girl" would not be me...if that is what you are referring to. Because I have never seen The Police and as such would not make that comment.

[eltee]

It's my fault that the thread went astray, I'm sorry. I'm a little busy and jumped in to ask about the Police where I could. (Miz P, I don't think he was referring to you.    )
 All right, I can't bring the thread back around too much because I don't have earth shattering concert news:
 
 Fionn Regan at Iota 10/13 -- is an early show - 6:30 pm...(Rhett if you and the wife are going, let's talk closer to the date of show...)
 
 Glen Phillips - C'ville, VA @ Gravity Lounge on 10/2 and in Roanoke, VA  @ 202 Market on 10/3.
 (hush, it's in the state of VA!)
 
 I wish I could go to the Kim Richey shows next weekend w/ Peter Bradley Adams as support. He returns on 11/12 at Jammin' Java ($10 7:30PM) sponsored by American Songwriter.

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Unfortunately, I'll be missing that one for the same reason I'm missing Josh Ritter; we'll be on vacation.
 
 In the same musical vein, Elvis Perkins is playing Jammin Java December 5. I think we will try to catch that one.

I'm not the "some girl" either.
 
 I'd actually prefer seeing the Police to seeing Interpol, if you forced me to have to see one of them! Hell, I might even pay five or ten bucks to see the Police.

[sonickteam2]

i'd rather see the police too
 
  sometimes i think some people on here are too wrapped up in seeing "legendary" bands and such

I have a high regard for you personally & your musical tastes. Can't say that for everyone.  You're a lot of things, but "some girl" isn't one of them.
