I'd like to see Robyn H./Jennifer O., Neko, or Rocco, but money is tight.

Sat. night is a busy one. Who is doing what?
At this juncture, I plan on Beirut (not sure I'm interested in the opener, Sharon von Etten).
Then, thinking of Cloud Cult/Ice Palace/M&NSS's - will this sell out?

I heard Sharon Van Etten was really good at Snailhook's house last summer.

I swear I had some of her stuff at one point but can't find it now.

I see they moved it to the main stage.  The last CC show wasnt crowded at all.  Not sure about Margots draw... So maybe. I wouldnt risk it if you really want to see them.

Friday: Sebastien Tellier/Lemonade @ 930 (B+), also saw Monday Michiru (of Basement Jaxx fame) at Bohemian Caverns (A-)

How was Monday Michiru -- I see you gave her an A-?

Did you see her complete set before heading over to the 9:30 for Sebastien Tellier?

I saw her at Bohemian Caverns last year and really enjoyed her show, but the cover -- already steep last year -- was even steeper this time around, so I decided to forgo it.

I completely loved it! I saw her early set (she had an 8pm and a 10:30pm) and it was great. She did acoustic versions of Basement Jaxx's "Always Be There" and "Tonight" (the latter was a request). She's apparently never done those live in DC before. Her voice is great, and her solo stuff is totally solid! I'm gonna get her new album soon, and I'll let you know how it is.

Yay. Called, BC, "should be fine" to purchase at door.
BUT if this is not true Sat., I have nothing to give and don't throw at me or BC.

Thanks for the info regarding Sharon...
