2 out of 2 in my experience, only going this time because somebody else wanted to go

This is kind of unrelated, but also kind of related, does anyone remember the last time The Postal Service played DC?

I believe the only time Postal Service has played here was at the Black Cat 4/15/03

 Sorry for not memorising each and every one of your playlists

I saw the cover, remebered the bigger lovers were on there, put 2+2 and got 12

Seems DCfC are quite polarising, even amongst the indie hipsters.
 
 Why do other people like/dislike them so much?

I'm not an indie hipster, but i guess i have to be contradictory in saying that i neither like nor dislike them. They are tolerable but not awe inspiring.
 
 I think the amount of attention they get serves as a polarizing agent...making people feel the need to make either a statement of love or hate.

Oy, I agree with balls.  I don't love Death Cab, but have some friends who do and I think the show will be cool (part of my decision to buy tickets was the Saturday show date, though I think my friends would have convinced me regardless -- these are friends I drag along to things they've never heard of...I owe 'em).
 
 I do like "Transatlanticism."  Don't have any other DCfC albums.
 
 I like Postal Service quite a bit, though.  I'd see them if they toured, but would neither rant, rave nor pout if I missed 'em for some reason.

Death Cab grabbed me from the first time I heard them a few years ago when someone lent me Something About Airplanes and We Have The Facts.
 
 Totally there.  Got my tix early.  Seen them twice and they put on a good show.  
 
 How anyone could dislike them is beyond me.  It's soooo good....
 
 BK is OK, but really, he should be an opening act for death cab.  They're not on the same level.

i've been looking on ebay for tickets...what once was a $15 ticket before it sold out is going for $75 a ticket on ebay...
 
 insane...

I don't hate them...just not something I would listen to regularly...although, I did run over and pull the cd out of the player after eight songs...My friend made a cd mix of songs for me...he says he didn't pick a good mix and I need to give them another try. He put Postal Service on there too. They were okay, I liked them a little better than DCfC.
