OK... am I actually thinking of flying out for this? Did I just price flights? Did I actually think... "Well, I could fly into Seattle Friday, go to the show... then since it will be late I can hang out til last call and then go straight to the airport, so then I don't have to get a hotel room...

Seconded

I realized Yahoo! won't let anyone sign up for more than 4 teams on one name...so that's how I was getting the error message. Stupid rules.

Maximum teams already reached! Too late to get in?

Count me in!

[MagLev is short for magnetic levitation, a 'futuristic' transportation technology using powerful magnets instead of the tracks and wheels of conventional train travel... Not to mention super fast. They want to, but it ain't gonna happen, put one connecting Baltimore and D.C. Total travel time: les...

The intro plays on loop for a solid 2-3 min. I had no idea what the show was about except that at the end of the segment, and hence the end of the loop, the guy lost his girlfriend and the girl he was fooling around with. I saw no reason to continue watching...

I just got home and I'm off to class, but I'll add to the general consensus that it was f'in awesome. I met a guy from Baltimore who's probably from one or the other of the boards in line (didn't really occur to me at the time...), but I was my typical shy self once inside and rocked out by myself ...

Indeed. I was yelling out for Coming Down too, but alas, you can't always get what you want. Good sized crowd too -- with lots of fan requests and interaction. Quite possibly the best LW show I've been to!

In no particular order:

Blue Diamonds -- with John on bass
Scared Straight
Shapes
Cinnamon/Cinnamon Girl
Itll Be A Breeze
Stupid
Prom Night
New Girl
Carparts
Medicine Cabinet
Unsalted Butter

We were the 3 dancing fools in the front row -- If you remember the "You rock my socks" comment...with John showing us his colorful socks afterward......that was us. The show -- in a word: awesome. First time hearing Cinnamon laced with Cinnamon Girl -- and it melted my friends hearts, literally. Gr...

I can assure you of this -- I was not that pothead! LOL. It was true though, there was some guy out there acting pretty crazy while I was trying to watch.

I'll be there -- and with 2 friends! Unfortunately, with the semester ending for us (We go to school at Loyola in Baltimore) next week -- damn private Jesuit schools -- we all have lots of work to get to...including a paper due Friday afternoon. We may have to duck out of the show a bit early and no...

June 14 @ The 9:30 Club -- D.C

Wow, I remember the days of LW playing small bars like the Galaxy Hut, and now they're playing the premier club in DC. Goddamn having to grow up!

Ordered and in the mail -- now I just have to plan how I'm getting to Seattle
