Hey...It's the Sun!!!

[Driveway]

they use to do 5 years all the time and it was fantastic.  The show was amazing.  
 
 But, did anyone notice that there were THREE cars with smashed in windows on that street that runs next to the club with all the meters and the warehouse looking thing?  Granted, I guess we could trade in a drink for safe parking, but I imagine that this is no an unusual thing to happen.  I had a window smashed in at Nation once, but never at 930 club.  How often does this happen and shouldn't something (i don't know what...) be done to minimize things like this this?

What Bowie song could they have possibly covered without murdering it? The Laughing Gnome? [/b]

Memory of a Free Festival from Space Oddity, but just the ending part.  They pretty much mowed us down with it, and in a good way.  I was hoping they would have played Five Years again, oh well.  Great show!

Now hang on just a minute.....this "I'm so happy, oh so happy, oh so happy and happy and gay" band covered a song about dying in five years? WTF?

Okay, now I'm with it....."God Knows I'm good" would be a good one too, I imagine.
 
 How about "All the madmen" from Man who sold the world.......OH WAIT!!!! "Life on Mars" That's perfect for them..."Kooks", "Prettiest Star" and "Starman" are three more.

yeah good point, but even Bowie said that it's one of the best performances of the song he's ever heard.

well hey, apparently bowie doesn't mind as they toured Europe and the US together.

I assume you are talking about 8th st?  V st is the street you enter/exit the club from.  8th is about a block away, to the left as you leave the club.   Thanks in advance for a clarification.

I wonder if the cost to replace their window is less than the  $7 ($9 via tickets.scam) to park in the club lot?

That's a lesson I learned the hard way.  Even with all the shows I go to, I could easily park in the club's lot every time for the amount of money it cost me to replace my window.

yes, i am talking about 8th street u believe.  What is Bollacks so bitter about?  time to do some work.

That was a kick ass show last night!  I've seen TPS 6 times now and they are always great live.  It looked like a lot of people had never seen the spree before last night.  Though, the crowd really warmed up and gave an awesome response back to the band.    
 
 Does anyone know if the show sold out?  It looked like it maybe did, but I was up front and couldn't tell.  I know that they wanted to play two dates at 9:30, but the promoters didn't think they could sell out both.  Hopefully next time, we'll get two shows just like Chicago, NYC, Philly, and Boston are getting on this tour.    
 
 Oh, and you might have seen me last night.  I was the guy in the blue robe going absolutely gonzo.

Have you had your window broken?!?!  Y'all are havin' me panic.

[Bombay Chutney]

Yeah - back in 2001.  I'm sure it's because someone watched me put my coat in the trunk.  Another lesson learned:  Put everything out of sight BEFORE you get to the club.
 
 Still, 20 years of going to the club (both old and new) and that's the only time anything has happened. I'm still pretty comfortable leaving my car outside, but I usually try to get in the lot for sold-out shows.

I'm not bitter, just being a little sarcastic because I think it's silly to park on the street and take a chance rather than pay the parking fee for peace of mind.

Oh God!  :roll:  please don't tell me the Spree fans (Spreebies??) wear robes to the shows.
