70% chance of attendance.  I have a friend in from Kenya, and have to go with the flow...there's a chance we'll get a crew to the Blue Room.

How do you arrive at the 70% figure?

Wow.  I think that means you just don't like Sleater-Kinney.

 check them out
 before they're the next big thing.
   Other in-stores this April:
 Saturday 15th -- DJ Maxx 3PM
 Sunday 16th -- Group Sounds For fans of: the strokes 4PM
 Saturday 22nd -- Critically Acclaimed (dc hip-hop) 3PM

I hate driving to Iota, but I'll be there. Already have the album/EP and have been really enjoying it. I've been a Kristin Hersh fan for years. Her "Hips and Makers" is one of my favorite albums of the '90s.

Come to The Blue Room! Yeah!         :D                :D                :D        
 
 I have it on good word that the band (Highspire) are a bunch of Markies; assuming they are up to full form. (Fair warning to Medusa and Strange.         :p    
 
 * Fair warning, the band will be leaving early so they can get in to work on time the next day. Not sure what early means but at one point, I was told by about midnight.
 
 I don't listen to the station but supposedly Highspire have been on the top 25 rotation at KEXP for the past month. Also, one of the top sellers at Tonevendor and had just recently slipped from the #1 slot after being there for about a month.
 
 Sorry Brennser, I'm not a Kristin Hersch fan. Besides, I had already previously made plans for this night.

How was the show?  I was just too wiped out after a busy weekend, two friends in from out of town, and a Sunday BBQ that went 'til after 10.  Hope it was great, for big fan Brennser alone!
