Grohl just said new club being opened next door that will be just like old 930

badly laid out, horrible sight lines and smelling of rat urine?  WOOHOO!!!

[sweetcell]

set list is up: https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/foo-fighters/2021/930-club-washington-dc-638c1a6b.html

20 21 songs, currently... guess they didn't play 5 hours, as threatened.

What does IMP gain by having the Foo Fighters as a "Surprise" as IMP likes to market it as if this show was a guaranteed sell out planned in advance (as I have been told)?

[Cock Van Der Palm]

huh?

What exactly are you asking? What do they get from announcing it last minute vs announcing it 6 weeks out?

[Cock Van Der Palm]

Gotcha.  Sorry...I'm a little slower than usual this morning.  I have no answer to your question.

According to DCist and a spokesperson from IMp, that “replica tiny original” thing wasn’t a joke. Going to be where Satellite Room is and will be exact replica of the original club minus the smell and rats.

There better be a girl with a video cam on her shoulder sitting atop the center pole.

What is the point of yet another "small" venue in DC? I'd say it's already over saturated, no?

I had that thought too, but I'm no expert.

[grateful]

It's a place for "secret shows" after the main event. Like could you imagine the Foo Fighters playing to 150 people at 3 in the morning?!?

[StoneTheCrow]

Which leads to discussions over which bands are actually worth seeing at 3am. And those that ain’t.

just announced: Dave Grohl breaks news: Replica of old 9:30 Club to be built next door to current one

[kosmo vinyl]

my guess is the new venue is the replacement for the 9:30 Club presents at U street hall shows...
