New Music Club at 9th & U?

[TheNomad]

I heard a rumor that there was a new music club being opened at 9th & U?  Anyone know anything else about this?  What kind of size?  Type of music?  Set up?
 
 This would make quite a concentration in that 2 blocks for music.
 
 Maybe it'll be a DC Iota type place.  That'd be great, save the drive.

I heard the opening was delayed a week...but this is from bigyawn.net -- not sure if it's been here on the 930 board already as well.
 
 There is a new venue opening in the DC area. DC9 opens its doors on February 6. The music venue and lounge holds 250 people, and will also have DJs spinning on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. The goal, according to part-owner Bryan Deily, is to have a venue that cares about the sound of the music. "...we plan to take great detail in the sound with a full time sound engineer who will do everything to make the bands achieve the sound they desire..." says Bryan.
 
 The venue is located at 1940 9th St., just south of U St.
 For info, call (202) 483-5000, or check out their website
 www.dcnine.com, it should be up and running in a few days.  We here at BigYawn think DC9 might be the answer to an underdeveloped niche that's remained since the closings of  The Metro and The Bayou. Here's hoping for great success for DC9. We hope to be there every step of the way.

are you saying that bigyawn.net is not a reliable source?  huh? huh?

DC9 is opening this Friday.  It will feature mostly Rock and Indie bands every night and DJ's after 10:00 PM on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

NO!  The 'but' was misplaced (and we all know how often that happens!).  Meant that I knew the opening was changed, and otherwise the info came from bigyawn (giving cred to the site -- a better friend o' bigyawn would have put a link.  NEXT TIME!)

Look, I am not going to bother posting news for you people unless you start reading it! I posted over two weeks ago about this venue. And no one so much as noticed. I'm sure Rhett doesn't read any topic i start anyway.

I don't even care and yet I still noticed...there was some discussion about whether it was named after a pistol or something, I recall...

So what kind of bands are going to play and be all finished before 10:00 on a weekend night??

DC9 does plan on opening this Friday if DCgov stops dragging their feet.
 Weâ??ll know in the next day or so.

So you all know, DC9 is going to be opening tomorrow night @ 8, and they will have a DJ starting at 10. I plan on being there, just to check this place out, and to do a story for bigyawn. Will try to get you some love kosmo.
