Ft Reno

[paige]

In my opinion, the only band that I liked was the Fatales. I'm sorry, but the Garland of Hours or whatever's female singer had the most flat, horrible voice. Sure she could play the piano and the cello - which was cool, but I mean I could have sung better than she did! Canyon didn't interest me as much as I had hoped, but I tried to give them a fair shot. However, I was just let down, bought a cremesicle and went on home.

you say that based on who you saw at the show last night? are your black rimmed glasses out of focus? when i hear "emo" i think of the kids who wear beaded bracelets, tight dickies, hair in their eyes and care bears t-shirts all while accessorizing themselves with a bad attitude and arrogance....
 
 i didn't see many of those people last night.
 more a crowd of older (by no means old though) more low key people.. i did see a few grandmas too.

agreed.  Fort Reno tends to be the awesome people capital of the east coast, in my humble opinion.  There's definitely no better scene in DC.

that is what i mean...and i did see people like that. guess we werent sitting near each other.  most ft. reno shows are like that...

What I love the most about Ft. Reno is just how eclectic the crowds are... it isn't so discriminating and even at times cut throat (I've been to shows where people are absolutely brutal to each other!) and the atmosphere is just so great... Woo Ft. Reno!

save for those indieestros who tell people to sit down. at least they say please though.

Anyone have any thoughts on Velvet or The Deep Six?

Well Velvet's this crummy little hipster hangout that will have a good band once in a blue moon; haven't heard of the other place. Where is it located?

Whew, why the harshness over Velvet Lounge??  I know, I know, Iota's like the best place to see a band ever.  But Velvet fills a niche as well.
 
 What I'm wondering is if I should get to Galaxy Hut more....

Bags, that's just Rhett. He thinks he's the Anti-Hipster.   :roll:

Yeah, I wonder if I'm missing a lot of interesting new bands by not going to more GH shows. (It's my favorite bar in VA/DC area, regardless.)

Anybody know anything about the bands playing tonight -- particularly Velvet and The Deep Six?
