The List......

Showlist for May, 22, 2009

Hey All-

The list is here, so now you can make your Memorial Day Plans.

This is not a new thing, but I saw it a few months back, and meant to post it. It was produced my Mean Magazine (which apparently has people do these little video vignettes all the time) and it is pretty weird. The Oscar winning actor, who played Gandhi now plays DC's own Ian MacKaye. Well, it's fun. And while I certainly can not speak for Ian, I would be pretty psyched if Ben Kingsley played me.

You can find the video here.

Anyway, I hope you all have a good weekend, and I will see ya next week.


later,
pete

The List......

Showlist for May 15, 2009

Hey All-

Quick hit this week. Bunches of new shows as the spring/summer tour season is heating up. Fort Reno is just around the corner.

Some may have noticed that I have not posted too many shows from Sonar/Talking head of late. Well, they redid their website recently, and it makes it a big pain in the ass to get the shows on the list. So, I'm not hatin', but I got to be practical. As always, feel free to forward them to me, and I will add the shows that way.

Anyway, see you next week.

later,
pete

The List......

Vinyl heads unite....

Thought I would mention to all you fellow record freaks, at the Warehouse Theater tomorrow from 10am-4pm is the 2nd annual DC Record Fair.

30 dealers, food, Daptone raffles and Chuck Brown. All for $2. Sounds pretty good to me. I would be there if I could, but I have an all day shoot (stoopid mortgage). ah well...

Find the details here

Let me know how it was. The List......

Showlist for May 8, 2009

Hey all-

Well another week has come and gone. This week seemed a tad on the rainy side. Somehow we ended up with Seattle's weather pattern.

Anyway, a bunch of new shows. Creepin into June on this week's list. Go see stuff. The price of gas has gotten low enough that bands can your again. Let's make 'em feel welcome.

Also, one little house keeping note: I have gotten a few submissions of late that are not all ages shows. That is one rule I have to stick to. All Ages only. No 21+ or 18+. People should feel free to add shows in the comments section if they want, or if it's a last minute show. Just has to be all ages.

Anyway, I need sleep. So, I'm gonna go get me some.

Artomatic is coming....can you smell it?

later,
pete

The List......

Showlist for May 1, 2009

Hey all-

Another quick note week. Busy times here at list central.

My buddy Dave in NYC found this cool incomplete documentary on Judge. If you were a straight edge kid in the late 80's early 90's you must have heard of this band, and all the rumors there in. Kinda cool peak behind the curtains, talking to most of the guys today. A little nostalgia, NYHC style. Check it out here.

A lot of new shows added this week. Good stuff all around. It is worth mentioning as well, that Sean McArdle is playing a show at the Black Cat on May 9th that is doubling as a benefit for Fort Reno. Go see music and support Fort Reno in the process. Sounds "win-win" to me.

till next week...

later,
pete
