Club's 30th anniversary?

[sweetcell]

knowing the staph's affection for clutch, i suggested their time in hopes of getting a reaction. 

i didn't realize it would go this badly for me 

attendance... lol.  lemme know where to sign in.

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

see everyone there... love the lineup!

Thanks 930  Club and its fabulous Staph!

We are superexcited for Monday!

Will there be set times posted later this weekend or on Monday? Will we be able to catch the last metro home or will it go into the wee hours of Tuesday morning and I should plan now for taking Tuesday morning off work?

I would love to stay late, but I took time off today and tomorrow so I need to get back to the grind Tuesday. Hoping Grohl appears early!

Hey, I just saw the info on the 3oth anniversary party somewhere else, and wasn't on the email list. So I added myself, but I figure the notices already went out on that from what people are saying here. What's this about an RSVP on here? I don't see it. And can I still do that? I'd very much like to make it to this thing. All else failing, if I'm just finding out too late, what time do people think would be good to get down there if I'm gonna try to wrestle my way through the mob to get tickets at the door? I saw some mention of that being an option, but that there won't be many.

that ship has sailed as well, in fact it left before the e-mail list one did.  just like you had to be on the e-mail list to get the e-mail invite, you had to be a member of the forum to get the forum invite (it wasn't a straight-up rsvp, it was still a lottery).

what time do people think would be good to get down there if I'm gonna try to wrestle my way through the mob to get tickets at the door? I saw some mention of that being an option, but that there won't be many.

doors are at 5 pm.  how much earlier you want to be there is anyone's guess.  an hour?  three?  who knows.  outside of this bboard, has this show been generating any buzz?  is the general public all over this thing?

[undeadshane]

I would guess yes, as I found it on the Clutch profile, then googled  9:30 Club 30th Anniversary party, and found a news article about it. Any idea how many is a 'small number' as far as what will be available at the door?

[sweetcell]

no idea.  you might try asking over in the FAQ section of this bboard, the club is responsive to inquiries as long as it's information they're allowed/supposed to give out.

the club has a capacity of 1,200 in case that helps you decide what that "small number" might be. 

[undeadshane]

Okay, so it looks like that's it then, get down there early and try to look more deserving than the rest of the mob.

it'll have nothing to do with looking deserving, and everything to do with being at the front of the line, i.e. getting there early enough.  i'm strongly suspect 930 staph will keep things orderly and people in line, literally.  do not expect a mob scene, it's first come first served.

From the initial forum lottery email:   "Any forum entries that did not win tickets will be entered in the full email
lottery that will take place Friday morning."

i can foresee it now: forum member didn't read that line, didn't win tickets through the forum lottery, gets the e-mail blast lottery invitation yoday, signs up (again)... and is disqualified for entering twice. 

i hope the lottery organizers take this possibility into consideration!

word.

My recommendation would be to get there about 3:00 p.m. if you really, really want tickets.  The show came up in the W. Post weekend "Going Out Guide" live discussion.  Folks know about it, and many have Monday off to get over and wait for tickets.

[jdyahoo]

So has anybody received email notification yet that they've been selected for tickets from the eMail Blast RSVP's list??  I have not yet....

Thanks.

[Got Haggis?]

nothing here - i entered in the forum contest and assume my entry carried over to todays contest

[mcdonnellm]

Nothing yet... still hoping!
