Yay Wooz! ;D

I live in MD right outside DC and work in NW DC; dcbee lives and works in the city... thinking best if something on the Metro line...

I had this idea when I went to see Grace Potter this weekend... I was thinking all the live shows I see, wonder how many Inforoosters are there and I have no clue.

Okay, Langerado is the 6th-9th so I am thinking not until late March at the earliest point...

A few shows I could find that were coming up:
9:30 Club: (not really on Metro but easy to get to)
3/15 - Bob Mould Band
3/20 - Gutter Twins
3/22 - Amp Fiddler & Tortured Soul
3/24 - Morcheeba
3/25 - Presidents of the United States of America
3/28 - Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks
3/29 - Ghostland Observatory
4/2 - BoDeans

ShamrockFest is 3/15 at RFK and dcbee, fortis and I are going. Playing:
- Scythian
- Street Dogs
- The Tossers
- Carbon Leaf
- Great Big Sea
- Bunch more Celtic/Irish groups
- Mr. Greengenes and a few more local cover and touring groups
- Army of Me
- A buncha well-recognized DJs and for the celebreality point - Tommy Lee ;D

Mainly going for the drunken debauchery...

Well I will def. be at ShamrockFest so we could start with that and go from there... tix are like $15 I think and there is VIP which is closer to $80 but has more tents, more acts, free beer.

www.shamrockfest.com/buytickets.html

We could have a meet-up spot to hang out... I know my crowd is already about 6-8 deep but expect a dozen or so friends to show up. I didn't go last year - the first year it was at RFK but went the prior year when it was in Old Town Alexandria and we had a blast. Great music, great people... tons of fun until my husband peed behind the porta-potties and long line and got us kicked out...

He'd be so thrilled I shared that story... ya'll will have to ask him about it when you see him ;D

i'll second the malkmus suggestion. if y'all haven't heard the yet-to-be-released real emotional trash, i highly recommend it!

but like the rest, i'm down for whatever. i work in dc, live in gaithersburg, so it'd be easy for me to get to anything on the metro during the week.
