My boy Sturgill just posted this quote with a link to the article:

?There is only one way to stop the scalping industry, and that?s to make it illegal,? said Seth Hurwitz, an independent concert promoter and the owner of the 9:30 Club in Washington. ?Anything else is just Whac-a-Mole, and grandstanding by politicians.?

Well said.

Gonna miss obama....

The new legislation was created to allow fans a greater opportunity to purchase tickets at face value when they first go online. According to a statement from the White House Press Secretary, the act ?prohibits the circumvention of control measures used by Internet ticket sellers to ensure equitable consumer access to tickets for certain events.? Ticket bot software allows scalpers to buy up large quantities of event tickets quickly before average consumers can purchase them. Scalpers can then jack up the prices as resellers in secondary markets like StubHub.

Hi Seth, happy new year. AIR are coming stateside for a gig: http://consequenceofsound.net/2017/01/governors-ball-reveals-2017-lineup-tool-chance-the-rapper-phoenix-childish-gambino-to-headline/

Any chance you could coax them to do a performance in DC? It's been 7 years since they last did a DC show. This was done last year. They are still phenomenal live.

Hey Seth, How ya doin?

Happy New Year!

New Order is playing Coachella... it would be awesome to get them to play our area again if they schedule dates around it...the 2013 show at MPP was awesome. In the meantime they put out a really nice album...

How come we don't get a Ty Segall date at the Club in May when he's back East?
Huh?  Why?

The Prodigy is one of the best live shows on the planet. The last 9:30 Club show was probably my favorite of theirs. So much fun.

Agreed. Their show at Nation shortly before it closed when they were doing a set supporting their Greatest Hits LP is one of my top 10 shows all time.
