Brand New
Thrice
The National Nov 10
I would say "another natural DC show" but I believe Brand New has skipped DC proper every tour in the last 5 years or so.

From MySpace:

Built to Spill
10/17 Washington, DC
Venue TBD, but I'd guess the club.

Their Myspace now says the club, so yeah, good guess.

Indeed they have. I could care less about Thrice, but am a BN fan. Sucks as i will not be driving to Richmond to see them. But Baltimore i'd do. Anyone know where these dates are from? Neither pollstar nor the bands site has them listed.

Actually, found them: Playing Sonar on 11-11 and the Electric Factory on 11-15 with Glassjaw, who are a serious step up from Thrice.

Brand New used to be OK but their melodic sensibilities have really fallen off with the last album and the songs leaked from the new one. I would definitely be alot more receptive to seeing them circa-2009 with Glassjaw as an opener, but Daryl's health issues makes the idea of banking on them to actually show up sketchy at best.

Also, I'm not certain there's a more annoying fanbase than Brand New. It's like Warped Tour meets AbsolutePunk kiddies meets VFest 2009 attendees. *shudder*

Been busy. Haven't been really searching out new shows lately. Been spewing hate-fueled rants against Wayne Coyne.

Why is that?

Overall, I just find their effort insulting. They're like the band that never practices, so they just play the same songs they've played for the last 10 years over and over. Used to be a HUGE Lips fan, but now, it's not worth my time or money. And Wayne's underestimation of his fanbase's intelligence is pretty insulting.

Yup.

I think, to be brief, they cover up a fair amount of laziness with an aura of "but look how many props we have!!!"

I'd rather have the chance of hearing spontaneous setlist deviations, thanks.

The dates are from the National website and the Norvas  ;D
