hey-

i live in alexandria, old town to be exact.. can\'t decide if i want to drive or metro to U street yet... my desire to get drunk versus the need to be at work early the next morning... hmm... i think i know how this one usually works out

you might want to check and see when the last train departs the U ST station and/or when the last train stops at alexandria/king st

the metro shuts down rather early mon-thurs nights

Hope you all enjoy the Breakfast in your neighborhood.  It\'s nice to see a small but growing pocket of fans down in D.C.!  Hope the word gets out after tonight\'s show.

from what i remember....

inner glimpse
ldz>
beef barley
(now let me just tell you about this bb. strong contender for jam of the night! its a good song and all, but it doesn\'t usually do *that*!!)
some stuff i\'m forgetting
karn evil 9
the chase
firey ball
gladys pimp

(i just realized i remember much less than i thought i did...)

second set had
superfly phaddy daddy
mayfly disarray
no regret
a jordan song i\'m spacing on
phaddy boom batty (with a hail to the chief tease - \'exercise your rights!\')
and the utterly ridiculous
gravity>rufus>gravity
to close the show!

sorry it\'s not more complete, but i figured i\'d give y\'all a quick taste of the insane pummeling that dc just took. it was big jam after big jam, with that rufus just shaking the place! if that\'s just the first night of the run, folks in two days are gonna have their spleens shook loose! i was really impressed with how huge ron and adrian were sounding tonight, too. not that jordan was slacking, just that i thought those two were really thundering.

as timmy said afterwards, \'well... *that* was a workout!\'. its not often you leave a thursday night show drenched in sweat and beaming, but we sure did tonight! :^)

Did enough people get to experience the Breakfast?
Title: Velvet Lounge, DC 2/17/05
Post by: jking on February 18, 2005, 10:11:20 am
i thought that there were a decent number of people there at the begining (although it is a tiny space. kinda like setting \'em up at the end of your living room), but at setbreak a lot of folks trickled out. thursday night, and all that. which i guess is a bummer, but the guys played so hard second set that you couldn\'t tell they weren\'t in a packed stadium!

I agree, sometimes I kinda of sigh when they start playing it, but then ten minutes later they are in the middle of some crazy jam and you forget what song it is!

Title: Velvet Lounge, DC 2/17/05
Post by: demobug on February 18, 2005, 03:19:22 pm

the first set owned my face! there was some serious jamming in barley. not sure, but wasn\'t there a no glove no love in the first set?

Title: Velvet Lounge, DC 2/17/05
Post by: jking on February 22, 2005, 01:11:21 pm

Post by: davepeck on February 22, 2005, 01:17:26 pm
yeah, i was able to get a taper out to the show.. i\'ll be in touch with him this week, and you should see it up soon..
Title: Velvet Lounge, DC 2/17/05
Post by: jking on February 22, 2005, 01:55:28 pm
sweet, thanks! after seeing the 2/19 setlist, on paper at least, this show should definately get heard because it smokes! and i can\'t wait to re-hear that barley, because it really was exceptional, along with the rest of the show, of course!
Title: Velvet Lounge, DC 2/17/05
Post by: jking on March 08, 2005, 11:39:59 am

Title: Velvet Lounge, DC 2/17/05
