Roll Call - Best Week Ever Edition

[kosmo vinyl]

Everyone pull out those Gold Cards it's a doosie of week show and pricewise...
 
 We've got it all this week! Aging, past it, over the hill, one foot in the grave rockers, a Grammy winning Alt Country artist, an 80's novelty act, a show which will have the added bonus of a Greekster vs Hipster Glaring contest, something for Radiohead fans, a couple of bands which unfortunately managed to elude campus security, and some guy from Maine who is probably the best thing going these days seeing as Pitchfork hasn't weighed in yet and the blogs aren't blowing smoke up his ass.
 
 Me I'm in for New York Dolls, DJing the Secret Machines & KOL show, and of course D-E-V-0!  Would like to see Lucinda but with De Novo Dahl being confirmed at Iota with Juliana Hatfield will probably have to sit that one out...
 
 So who's else bank manager will be calling this week?

While waiting on cashflow, I missed a ticket to KoL/SM. Maybe I'll head over to ticket exchange / stand outside before the show. I'll be in Baltimore this weekend for shows, at the crooner from Maine show, Juliana, [thinking about] Lucinda.

I'll be continuing my Summer-of-Missed-Shows by leaving town for a couple of weeks on Thursday

Right now it's The Knitters at the Birchmere Bandstand on 8/12 and DEVO at the club on the 14th.....and then I shall rest......Secret Machines are coming to the Recher in Baltimore for those who have missed out on the 9:30 gig......

[amnesiac]

I'll be at the glaring contest

[Bags]

I'm out for everything but Devo on Sunday night.  Busy summer, weekends away, etc.

I'm in for KOL/Secret Machines of course.  Unfortunately, the Redwalls are headlining on a WRNR boat cruise out of Annapolis the same night as the NYDolls...went for the youngsters...BTW:  If anyone's going to Vert. Horizon tomorrow night, get there early.  The best band up is Pepper's Ghost...bring your dancing shoes and loosen up those old hips...they put on an amazing performance...then I'm coming over to DC9 for BJM...a show well worth catching cause you never know what might happen.

you must be rich. that's almost $100 worth of shows right there, and it seems like you do this rather regularly. i wish i was rich...

[Tom Servo]

Definitely the busiest run in a while.
 
 8/4 - BJM @DC9
 8/5 - WSC, Cartel @BC
 8/10 - Secret Machines and Helio Sequence @Recher
 8/11 - KoL, SM, and HS @9:30 if I can pick up some tickets at the door. That show literally sold out on my way to the club yesterday, my own fault for slacking.
 8/13 - De Novo Dahl @Iota
 
 Lots of sure things in this group.  Last year's Secret Machines and Helio Sequence gig at the Black Cat was maybe my favorite all year.  De Novo Dahl at the Warehouse in February may make this year's top 5.

Yeah, right.  My first name's Paris...Nope, not rich, just running up my credit cards once in a while...and sometimes, it helps to be loyal and supportive of musician friends BEFORE they're popular...

[BookerT]

loyal and supportive, eh? i'll have to consider those...
