gin blossoms?
 
 ...riiiiiiight

[Random Citizen]

The Joan Jett/Eagles of Death Metal show should be a  lot of fun. They're playing PDX in November with Throw Rag on the bill, too. I still haven't recovered from seeing that band when they opened for Queens of the Stone Age a couple years ago.   :eek:

[amnesiac]

There's also The Hold Steady on 10/2.
 
 Yeah, October is out of control. It looks like I'll be going to at least 18 shows that month   :eek:

[bearman🐻]

Throw Rag RULES!

[bellenseb]

Eef Barzaley from Clem Snide at Jammin Java 10/7 (conflicts with Smog - blah...)

[bellenseb]

Also Lisa Germano, 10/26, Iota, with Beauty Pill
 Jeffrey Lewis, 10/12 Velvet Lounge
 Nina Nastasia 10/12 DC9
 
 For those who go for the singer songwriter sort of thing.

[Jaguar]

At the top of my list and not noted on any of the above is:
 
 10/9: Secret Shine, Alcian Blue & tba* - The Warehouse Next Door
 
 First tour for Secret Shine since their original drummer died. Also, DC is lucky enough to get one of their only US appearances.
 
 *If all goes as planned, the tba band is one that is worth seeing in their own right. It's just not confirmed so can't be publicized yet.

i'm passing on the brand new heavies. they were great in july, but i think they will do exactly the same set next month, and who knows if they will get a good opener. van hunt was a great opener. too bad his show at the black cat last week was cancelled.
