I got some orchestras for the Bon Iver show but I’m thinking now that it’s going to not sell very well. Maybe I will be wrong but that’s my current guess

FWIW, the Koyaanisqatsi show during last year's #DCCurrent festival was sold out. I could see this selling out too based on Bon Iver's brandability. Whether people will know what they are getting into is a different story.
The new Entertainment and Sports Arena has announced two shows:
Mary J. Blige w/ Jacob Banks - Saturday, October 6th
Cage the Elephant w/ Judah & the Lion - Saturday, October 13th
I had no idea this existed.
I heard about it awhile back but totally forgot about it until now. I’m definitely gonna try to hit the Cage show. I’m hoping they’ll play new material.

If more shows come to town that would have otherwise skipped the DMV, great! But I don't see how a multipurpose arena will be preferable over seeing shows at The Anthem.
The Sports and entertainment center is the new home for the Mystics and Capital City Go Go, and it’s in the Congress Heights Neighborhood of the Southeast.
I head down there a decent amount for work and it’s not as bad of an area as people say but should keep your head on a swivel a bit at night down there

Was anybody here planning on attending All Things Go Fall Classic? There are allegations running on Twitter regarding the Sunday headliner (Borns) being an abuser/rapist; I wonder whether that will affect anything over the coming two weeks.

I was thinking about going on Saturday because InWeGo is offering passes. But, holy shit. I didn't hear about this till now. I feel awful for the victim(s). I'm hoping they'll kick him off the lineup and maybe call someone like Grouplove to fill in or give Carly the closing spot.

Also worth noting: ATG has been pushing the whole "female/non-binary acts" thing as part of their marketing, so the optics won't be on their side if Borns stays on.

Hey, is there a curfew at Merriweather Post Pavilion? Going there for the first time on Friday to see The National, and since there are two openers, I'm hoping they will do a full two hour set.

Just when I couldn't get more jealous, I realized Kite Base is opening the NiN/JaMC shows at the Anthem. It's the bass player from Savages other band and just wonderful.
For those who might be interested in NiN next week but the price was too high, I think prices for those shows are going to continue to drop. I just picked up a ticket for the tuesday show for half of face value

Gonna have to talk this over with the powers that be. It's her birthday that day but it's free and OPN + Pantha might be too much to miss.
