Recher


Strangest venue choice

I'm wondering if someone who used to work/book at Sonar moved to the Recher.  Several of the last Sonar shows were moved to the Recher even before Sonar officially closed, and this is the type of show that probably would've been booked in Sonar's club room if it still existed.

Or maybe they just wanted a Baltimore-area show, and Ottobar was already booked for that night.

Monozine tweeted the announcement. Looks like your latter theory is correct.
 
Speaking of Sonar though, I was thinking that maybe their booker moved to Rams Head. The Thrill Jockey show surely would have been at Sonar.

I'll add Drive By Truckers and Old 97's to your list.

Though the Recher was quite possibly the nastiest ashtray of a club or bar that I've even set foot in.

GOD i hope someone improves the recher bookings.. in the late 90s/early 00s they were getting some really cool shows and then nothing.

I saw wilco, ween, guided by voices and other great shows there.. and the place always had a good vibe...

he was talking about "really cool shows" so i suspect he left those off intentionally.

Thrill Jockey at RHL didn't surprise me that much.

this is a little misleading.  He's opening for Aimee Mann, not headlining.

Lame.  Hopefully, they'll tack their own headlining tour onto the end of this and make the rounds again.

If I recall correctly, last album their first tour through was in support of Ted Leo, then they did headlining shows which hit DC9 about six months later, then about six after that came back around and hit RNRH.

Then again.. hey Seth!  This is their first show on the tour, any chance you can get them into town a day early for October 28th/29th show at U-hall??  that'd be awesome.

I think the Ted Leo tour may have been even before Travels came out.
