i'm pretty sure she played at the capitol ballroom as it was then called twice back in the '90s, but i could be wrong.

you know, I knew as I was typing that you'd probably chip in with your usual two cents
 
 I guess what I should have clarified is that I don't think they've hit DC since their opening album, so a good 5 years.....unless I was out of town and it was not on my radar screen
 
 they definitely didn't come here for Leader of the Free World....mind you I think in general they avoid the states

They also played the 9:30 a few months prior to that show with Doves.  Twice in one year and now nothing since.

i guess we're only talking about the district itself?  'cause the raconteurs just played the Patriot Center last friday, in my books that takes them off this list.
 
 RE: daft punk - maybe seth will read this thread and take them off the list, too
