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,

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.

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.
