anyone see dr. dog? was it good?

I have some friends who went with a press pass. Said it was awesome.

[sharkhax]

what's a press pass mean when its in the pike room, where you can basically walk behind a curtain and hang out with the band.

not dissing u but .... what's a press..... wait nevermind.

The Crofoot is the best thing to happen to this place in a long time. Wish there was anything else at all to do in Pontiac though.

But how did we go so long with no decent shows and then on the 19th you get St. Vincent, Patti Smith, Tortoise and Kings of Convenience?

cross the street from the crofoot , go downstairs to the bar

i rarely go out here, but that night is killing me. i just don't know what to do, which means i'll probably stay home.

[sharkhax]

awe c'mon roy

[ghostguts]

I'm leaning more and more towards going to Toirtoise w/ Disappears at the Blind Pig with a friend. Both of us can drink and not care about driving and the such, and it's across town rather than a hour or more drive.

[ghostguts]

by the way, since I'm not going to St. Vincent at the Eagle Theatre anymore, I have an extra ticket for that. cost me $17, but goes free to the first boarder who pms me

ghostguts, you live in a2? i thought you were around metro detroit for some reason.
i guess you are on the east side?

[kit fox]

I'll be at Patti Smith, hopefully. I totally forgot and missed dutchess and the duke so hopefully I dont pull the same shit on that night

anyone else planning on seeing her?

I used to hang out more in ferndale and royal oak, because I worked in detroit for a little while

I'm going to school in ann arbor, now though, and no longer working in detroit
