Back on the topic of the Growing/Hot Chip thing, for those of you who aren't familiar with Growing:

 Now you can see why this pairing makes zero sense.

Toad's Place is a 1500 person venue, so it's not crazy, but State Theatre is small.
 
 I think the fact they've announced only 7 people will be on the tour (none of the females), and they're playing in support of Canning's solo album as opposed to a BSS-greatest hits set limits the draw of this particular tour. [/b]
Ooh, good to know, I was considering this but now, maybe not so much.

Also noticed a couple of DC9 shows that I didn't hear about in this thread:
 Does it Offend You, Yeah? 9/5
 Basia Bulat 9/17 (I liked her when she opened for DeVotchKa)

There's like 4-5 shows worth checking out that night. That's pretty unheard of in dc on a wednesday.

Velvet Lounge:
 
 Sunday 08.17.08  Insect Factory, Mind Over Matter Music Over Mind, Projection:Zero (improv sax/guitar duo), Dan Friel (solo electronics, of Parts & Labor)
 
 
 Still yet to see Insect Factory.
 
 
 The Dan Friel album is really good but I don't know how well it'll translate to a live setting.

I don't remember ticket sales for Broken Social Scene Presents Kevin Drew (which others have mentioned), but the last time they played 9:30 as proper BSS, tickets didn't sell out until days before the show. Also as others have mentioned, a good portion of the set will probably be dedicated to Brendan's songs (and some to Kevin's solo, as well).
 
 I'm looking forward to Basia Bulat. And the Jenny Lewis presale begins tomorrow; I'm not sure whether a password is required.
