If you could pick a band...

What about the Wrens?
 
 They need to come back to DC, and they seem very 'zine friendly.

Yeah, the Wrens -- a friend of mine is a real low level promoter, and they were totally going to do her gig in Lowell, MA, but they can't make it date-wise.  And they're just up in NJ -- probably depends on when the bigyawn party is....

How about Velvet Crush?

The Wrens also seem a little too 'big' for DC9. But maybe I'm wrong.

Last time they played here it was backstage at the Black Cat.
 
 How "big" is DC9?

I agree with ggw; DC9 seems bigger than the backstage, but I could be wrong.  (It's probably just nicer...) Plus, we have no idea how either place pays bands...

It would be really cool if you got the Wrens.

Well, I have a pretty good idea how DC9 pays...working out details as we speak. Thoguh, I didn't realize the Wrens played on the Backstage, that's crazy.

Aren't the Bigger Lovers a little too 'big'? [/b]

I second The Bigger Lovers. I don't think they are too "big". [/b]

I love the bigger lovers....i'm giving this one serious consideration. They are free according to their site... [/b]

yah...I saw them the other weekend - they played to me and about 5 people that showed up at Iota. Very friendly people too - they might be up for it. I can investigate further if ya like! 4 Way St. who played with them would do it (but I'm not akeen to them, others are though). Endochine (third band that played with the two) would definitely do it, just depending on the time of the event as they just returned to Austin.

The Wrens would be fantastic! They played the Backstage as the media was just picking up on them so it wasn't too out of hand packed. I'm sure they would sell out the Mainstage now. If not, then very close to it.
 
 I think that I've already posted this in the Just Announced thread a week or two ago but The Wrens are supposed to be playing The Ottobar at yet some unannounced date as of yet.
 
 Other possibilities would be...
 
 Phaser (of course I'd suggest them        )
 The Carlsonics
 Myracle Brah
 Beauty Pill
 The Lilys
 Metropolitan
 Highspire (Very good Shoegazers from Philly. I can hook you up with one of the members.)
 
 PS: PLEASE make it on a Friday or Saturday night.

Jag, I am so upset I am likely to miss the phaser show on the 24th of april. It would be worth it to try and get them to play DC9...thoguh they might again be too big. Maybe I am simply underestimating the fact that bands want to play, bottom line. We'll see. And don't worry, its on a Friday night.
