RE: BIRCHMERE 03/18 (was Re: DC Black Cat)
Count me in as another P2er who'll be heading to the Birchmere for the Steve Del show on the 18th. For those of you who may be coming to town for the show, you may be interested to know that the V-Roys are playing the next night at IOTA, a cool small club in Arlington, Virginia. Looks like an E-Squared week shaping up. See ya, Slonedog

Looks like an E-Squared week shaping up. I wish I could make that one. IOTA is indeed a great little club and has provided a much needed shot in the arm to the DC-NOVA roots scene. In a little over a year, I've managed to catch Freakwater (I know, I know...), Buckner, Whiskeytown, Dem Gourds, and Cheri Knight (twice!). Due to distance and week nights, I've missed even more great shows. The owner now knows me and my friends as "those guys from Charlottesville." I wish we had a place like IOTA here, since, for numerous reasons, C'ville often gets skipped over by many of the rock-oriented roots acts on their East Coast swings. Thanks to everyone for responding to my Black Cat inquiry and for explaining the nature of the mysterious "fluff" list.

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. Shannon
