I like the National but driving back for two hours after a show is a total buzzkill for me.. I did it once for Ween… never again

95 minutes from the National to my house, when there's no traffic, late night.

Though while I'm teleworking, a Monday night is basically the same as a Saturday night.

Tickets for Spoon at the National are $27.50, atthe 9:30 $45

Lol... $17 savings is definitely worth the 95 minute x 2 hassle!

That's the equivalent of $5.37 / hour. If your hourly salary is greater than that, it's not worth it.

Depends on how many tickets you're buying and if you have a desire to do other things in Richmond on a Saturday.

 Honestly. I probably won't go to either show. I like Spoon, but not enough to pay $50+ per ticket, or drive 3+ hours round trip.

I never understand arguments like that because you're not driving to shows during work hours.

Because it's assanine to drive 3+ hours to save $17.

Spoon

- I guess tomorrow is the presale?

if you sign up for our email list you get first crack a little earlier https://spoon.ffm.to/signup.

also Richmond @the national on 4/9 on a Friday

4/9 is a Saturday.

Will 4/10 be added as a second Richmond show or a second DC show?

How does the National compare to the 9:30 in terms of user experience?
No way they get a second Richmond show. They moved like 600 tickets when they played there 3-4 years ago.

The National is fine as 98% of all venues are fine.

But it lacks that 9:30 club special sauce.

There’s no secret sauce. The 9:30 Club is fine as 98% of all venues are fine.

Well if they only sell 600 tickets for the National show, that would be a plus when comparing it to an ass to mask sold out 9:30 show.

Richmond shows are cool tho. I only went once, but it was for this.
