 Post subject: Pink Martini in DC with EisleyPosted: Fri Jun 03, 2005 5:38 am 
so, on pollstar dot com and at the Pink martini website, it says that Pink Martini is playing the same day and same night as Eisley at the 930 club in dc. are they playing on like a side stage? are they opening for Eisley? or am I just a very confused individual _________________ ROCK ME AMADEUS!!

it's most likely after. i'm just thinking about times i've been there with multiple shows...usually, when the first one's over, everyone scrambles to load everything out, then the acts for the next show load all their stuff in and go for it from there. |

I was at an empty bar that is usually full and someone kept asking where are all the people? And you know that thing where people clasp their hands together horizontal to the earth's surface and say "here is the church" then they steeple their two index fingers and say "here is the steeple" etc...well I did the last part, where people say "and here is all the people" and I said "here are all the people."

INSANE. don't worry, the warehouse with bullet holes in the windows are still there. _________________ rachelgreeneyes |
