Does anyone even remember the last time the mars volta came here? I sure as hell can't. I mean, i'm decently new to the concert scene here, but I haven't seen em. [/b]

The Mars Volta just played Rams Head earlier this year.

I caught him in NYC on his first tour, and people were dancing like cuh-RAZY!!!  I'm sure the lame DC crowds will just stand there with their dicks in their hands.

nissan pavilion sells paninis now?

I heard on WAMU that Nissan Pavillion "seats" 25,000. Do they really count lawn as "seats"?

WAMU obviously did, since 25k is nissan's total capacity including the lawn.

yeah, summer looks mostly dismal.  Stupid festival shows suck up all the talent.  I hate those things.
 
 Also:
 Watson Twins at RnR July 9th
 
 Blue King Brown and Theresa Anderson at RnR Aug 23rd for their 2nd Anniversary party
 
 The Bird & The Bee at Jammin Java October 3rd

Expectations are usually pretty low for Artscape, but they usually manage to accidentally book something good.
 
 Not so this year.

There's always Whartscape. That lineup is shaping up quite nicely. But then again, I kinda have the feeling that nothing on that bill will do anything for you either.
 And yeah; festivals do tend to ruin summer club-wise but my late june->mid-july is packed already.    
 
 P.S. The Ruby Suns were added to the Tilly and the Wall show. I liked that sea lion album but they were lackluster live when they opened for Le Loup.
