RE: Fragile Jewel Cases

Vic Chesnutt's CD "Drunk" on Texas Hotel has this cool little pocket thing for
the CD. Not a sleeve like on Wilco's "Being There" (I liked those at first but
then I found they were kind of a pain to get out sometimes) but just this cute
little pocket cut into the inside of the cardboard. I don't think it can cause
any damage to the CD (mine hasn't yet anyway and I use it all the time) so I
vote that everyone start using that.

Personally, my pet peeve is when the little hinges break and so every time you
open the case the whole damn cover comes off. More than one has gone flying
across the room, but I guess I can blame that on my temper more than the case
construction. Call me a redhead.

Do any of the DC-area contingent know if the Black Cat does 
advanced ticket sales? Specifically, I'm going to see Steve 
'n Del at the Birchmere on Thurs. 3/18 and wanted to pop 
over to see Sleater-Kinney at the Black Cat after the show. 
What time do shows start there? I'm assuming fairly 
late...and assuming it'll be hard to get into.

Generally shows start at 9, and it's actually a decent size place for a DC
club, so you may not have any trouble getting in, esp. since it's on a
weeknight. My experience has been that they'll sell tickets provided they have
released the show info publicly, so you should have no problem getting a
ticket ahead of time. The number of the Black Cat is 202-667-7960 or you can
get tickets thru the always evil Ticketmaster. Sleater-Kinney should be a
worthwhile show -- I've seen them a couple times and they've always been good.
