That's because he's becoming a true "Indie" hipster.   :p

[sweetcell]

I'VE ARRIVED!  I'VE TRULY MADE IT!!!  I'M AN INDIE HIPSTER!
 
 oh my, so many people to thank... where to start?  uh, ok, foremost i'd like to thank my girlfriend for her support, and the on-going loan of her jeans - baby, you always knew that i'd make it... into them.  also need to thank my BFFs over at user_submissions@pitchfork.com, i *knew* you were listening even tho you never gave me credit for my cool insights, amazing show reviews and snarky comments about albums that i hadn't heard (i didn't need to!).  that's ok, i'm too cool for a shout-out anyways.  and finally, i'd like to thank the many denizens of this bboard, without whom i'd still be enjoying the music as solely an expression of art and/or entertainment - i now know it's the social significance of music that matters most (namely, what it says about my social status).  my arms-crossed sneer would be nothing without you.

no problem.  i need to check out these bands and see if they are worth driving to baltimore early.

[Darth Ed]

I just bought my ticket last night. This will be my first show at the Ottobar, believe it or not. I don't get to Baltimore much. Any tips on parking or what time to show up or whatever?
 
 Anyone familiar with the opening acts?
 
 Thanks,
 Ed

[sweetcell]

sorry ed, never been to ottobar so can't help there.
 
 and it looks like i won't be going any time soon either: work just informed me i need to be in chicago that week. DANG FRICKIN' @%#~$*&!!!
 
 eff.
 
 if anyone wants a pair of tickets to this show, please PM me.  selling for face, i'll eat the $7 service fees.
 
 looks like the late show at the knitting factory that is my last chance.

100% true: I have an ex and when we were going out she had a pair of jeans that we both fit in. They were a tad tight on me but they were Versace so whatever. Oh, the days when I was still a 5/6...

parking is available on the street, and behind the ottobar.

[lbcardoni]

There is also a parking lot next to the club it is usually free.  Don't park in front of the tire shop across the street.

 Hopefully this won't be one of them.

every concert I've been to (sans the Pier Inner harbour shows) are late shows, I hate hate hate going to concerts in Baltimore.

[azaghal1981]

The Panda Bear show there didn't end until almost 1 AM which caused me to miss the last train back to the dc area requiring me to take a cab from there to Germantown. Luckily, I was doing some work for a federal contractor earlier that day in Baltimore so I was able to chalk up that nearly $200 cab ride as part of my expenses.  
 
 Good ol' Uncle Sam picked up the tab with no questions asked.
