I had the best time at the Dandy Warhols show last night in Baltimore...
so much fun.. they're such great guys too...
I must have seen you - there weren't many of us there.
you weren't that guy that tried to get in front of me? I had to administer a beat down... you probably heard me yelling at him...
I really respect the Dandys for putting on a full show given you have to wonder how many people even bought their tickets... when I picked up my tickets it looked like they had a few pages of comps.... they may have sold 300 if that?
I was surprised they went back to Ramshead Live.... The last time they played there a few years ago, the attendance was about the same as you're reporting for this show.... They definitely have a bigger fan base in DC than they do in Baltimore....
well.. there are a few things going on.. they probably still make some money.. .and they're probably driving south and wanted to stop for the night and might as well play.. i think their next show was cats cradle and they were coming from like Columbus.. so its a real bitch of a drive from Columbus to NC.. so they programmed in a stop knowing they would not make much money but hey its rock and roll..
that would be my guess...
it is probably a shame they could not program to play in the 930 club as they had already played in april....
having said all that, i just love shows like that.. i mean whats not to like? they closed the upstairs down and you get to see a band you like with only 300-400 people and the band gives it its all?
i thought it was an awesome time. for me the less people the better. .i'm not one of those people that wants their band to be so huge they play arenas or stadiums.. those types of shows suck.. even the 930 when sold out is pretty annoying....
