Just Announced

It was odd/cool seeing them in a full grand ballroom in NYC opening for Animal Collective. I think they won a lot of people over that night.

Finally!! I've been waiting years for them to come back to DC. They've released some great EPs in the meantime

I know!  They put on a great show opening for Kings of Leon at the Black Cat.  Haven't managed to catch them since that.

Whoa!



Black Pus opening for Ratatat.


Automatically turns this show from "meh...one-trick pony" to "OMG this is gonna be awesome!" It's just too bad that the man who should be the main attraction is opening. Anyone who saw him open for the Boredoms last year knows what I'm talking about.

I just went to the venue last night to see A.C. Newman again (great show, but I found out he's pretty much a dick), and it really is completely phenomenal. It's a great space on a really industrial block, with great sight lines and acoustics. The stage is pretty big actually, and protrudes so that on 3 of the 4 sides of it, the audience can be against the stage. I think capacity would be somewhere around 500-600, maybe, but thats just a rough guess.

sorry havent been there, but have heard great things about it from friends (i think most of them like it because they live near it). i will be seeing The Radio Dept there so I can give another report back after that show. Good chance Ill be at the Posies show as I think a few friends like them.

Wonder if they'll play more shows? I love the Posies and all, but I dunno if I would trek up to NY for this.

How about a double bill tour with Matthew Sweet performing Girlfriend start-to-finish? Hell, with openers Velvet Crush doing the Post-Greatness EP. Power pop revival time!
