Will there be a Dead Mike sighting?
Take pictures!
No merch. Fence set up is this a Rancid show
I installed a ceiling fan while in DC, I needed a screw and went to Ace Hardware in Friendship Heights, spent a buck fifty on three cent screw, Ace is the bottom floor of a ten floor apt building. That's life in the District,
I guess i'll get the poster on line.

I thought I saw you, but I wasn't sure and I didn't want to be the guy to approach a stranger with "duuhurrrr, i know u from teh internetz!"
I was pissed about the no-merch situation. Had they sold out for this tour, or what?
didn't know dead mike was from Washington
Just got buster by TSA for Can of MGD
To use the merch area at 930 is 40 percent.

Highway robbery.
Bloody hell, that's expensive.
I have seen stuff being sold in the parking lot, for example, at other shows. Now I'm beginning to understand why.
Hell, why don't bands just sell merch from a truck outside the gig? It would solve the area problem in the venue and allow people to buy things and stash them before the show.

Yeah, that's batshit. But it would explain Pinkus's laughingly encouraging the crowd to check out the merch table at the end of the Honky set. People were yelling, "Where is it??" Pinkus: *silence* :lol:
If I recall, there was merch the last time I saw the melvins at 930, on the Isis tour a few years ago. The management must have thought they could extract a bigger cut this time around. If so, fuck them.
The last time I was in the new 9:30, Lanegan used the area and it turned out to be the most interaction you will get with that dude. Pictures, autographs, talk about anything with no fists flying.
And there was a 9:30 employee selling everything.
That set up doesn't work with the road show the Melvins have going. It's a business decision and the Melvins entourage chose not to use 9:30 merch area.
I will buy DC posters for anyone who wants one in Seattle. PM me.

There were a lot of young people at the show. I couldn't believe the Nighthawks shirt.

Haha, nah.
You don't think I might be the "not to be trifled with"-looking guy in the kung fu outfit in the first pic?
Maybe, he looks like he might be into Indian women...is that you?
I wish. He looks like the sort of brah who could pick up that female bartender with a single "sup" nod.
Actually, I'm not in any of those photos as far as I can tell.
Ya right! Don't be shy
OK, I admit it. I am the not-to-be-trifled bro in the kung fu outfit.
Also, I did pick up the hottie with the killer tats. We banged.
Which reminds me, I should go see a doctor.
Saw a load of good bands while in the District. Wed night I checked out a punk show at the Casa Fiesta, Thursday Fort Reno, hung out with Ian, and the two Melvins shows.
I love the Goons and Set to Explode and Serge and Dave Byrd have a new band Nervous Impulse. Also liked this group: stop worrying and love the bomb

I got off the Metro with the female guitar player and was plesantly surprised when she took the stage.

Jeff gets a hug each night from Dale.
What's going on in Seattle? I see Honky isn't playing both nights (listed as playing August 16th). Jarrod on bass for a show?

A real ticket stub!
I respect the 9:30 for buying Merriweather and saving it.
Your friend,

Honky had to play a show in Texas. I think on the 16th?
They played both shows in Seattle.
