Decemberists Rollcall

[brennser]

So who else is going? I am thinking alot of you guys will be there.
 
 I haven't seen The Decemberists since that magical night when they played the Black Cat backbar and me and Markie consumated our love....

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Celeste and I will be going. We will consumate our love, for your viewing pleasure. For a small viewing fee.

I was there, but back with the 'non-hecklers'.
 
 I'll be there, but it's gonna be a crowded 9:30 Club and I won't be there in time to get up close...
 
 What's the word on Sons & Daughters?  I've read really mixed things.

Where were you seated/standing at their Bumbershoot show?

this will be the first show of theirs in dc i have not attended

[eltee]

I have a ticket...thinking of dropping it..? I dunno, too many shows. Would I regret it?

[SalParadise]

i'll be there.
 
 Fortunas sooner than i thought...

I thought of not going as well because I've seen them a lot over the last year and a half or so, and the last sold out show at 9:30 was the least inspiring of the lot.  But what the hell.  Friends are going, I'll go.
 
 Sugartastic, you might want to cash that ticket in and pay for two other shows with the proceeds...  Have you seen them in the last year?  If so, you've seen this show.  (If they do the cover of "Wuthering Heights," that's officially lame as they've been doing it since March).  If you haven't seen them this year, I'd check them out.  The songs from the last album add a lot to the set.

Wish I was going. They didn't play The Tain last time I saw em. I think they're playing it more often on this tour.

well said ... i've seen them a few times in the last couple of years and i've decided to take a break from them for a while ... i really don't want to burn out on them ...

I'll be there. First time I saw them during the oppresive heat at the Intonation Festival in Chicago. Not conducive to checking out a band. Second time I saw them was at their last 930 appearance. That time the bartender was in a chatty mood and I missed about half the set talking to her. This time I'm going to pay attention. I swear!
 
 Sugartastic - PM me if you think you want to get rid of your ticket(s).

I haven't seen them. This is one of those shows I planned for long ago as one of those "to check out the fuss"...
