D.C. Roll Call

**Sat Jan 21, 2006 8:52 pm**

Sound off if you are coming to D.C. for the 9th or 10th. State which night, and if you have a ticket, please (cuz I know some of you intend to show up, but as of yet have no ticket reserved). Cheers!

I'm in for both nights with tickets (thank God and this forum).

**Mon Jan 23, 2006 4:14 am**

Well, I think I'm in for the 10th - bought a ticket through the Artist Arena pre-sale but it hasn't shown up yet. See you there, I hope!

**Mon Jan 23, 2006 5:07 am**

I'll be there on the 10th!

**Mon Jan 23, 2006 7:28 pm**

I'll be there for the 10th.

I have my show tickets, my plane tickey and the flu is scheduled to put me out of work that day.

By the way, just realized I'm a dummy - of course I don't have my DC ticket, it's will-call only. :oops:

And just a warning for the alcoholics like me, last time I was at the 930 club, NO Guinness. They have local brews. It's rough, I know.

I will be there on the 9th with bells on! Can't wait!

This will be my first Pogues concert, though I've been a fan since 1989 or so. I'm bringing my teenage daughter too.

I just hope nobody pees on my leg. Or any other part of me. Or on my daughter.

No, that's only when you go to Brixton.

I know it seems like a poetic, Poguesy sort of thing--a life experience, if you will, to see them at Brixton and have your leg peed on--but frankly, I really just am not up for that kind of adventure.

I live vicariously. :twisted:

Come to think of it, since I've never been to the 930 Club before, and all the tickets are Will Call, does anyone have any advice?

I noticed on the 930 Club's calendar they still have another band listed for March 9 (I understand the Pogues are playing around 10 pm or so?). And if those tickets are Will Call also...

I'm just wondering what time is good to line up. I'm driving into DC that day for the show, so a rough estimate of when I should be there would be great. Also other tidbits of helpful info, such as "bring water," or "don't bring water or they won't let you in," that sort of thing.

Thanks.

I'd counsel erring on the side of earliness, but I'm not sure as to what time to recommend.

As for water, there are usually pitchers of ice water and plastic cups available on the bars (on both sides of the room). I'm not sure that water is confiscated upon entry to the club, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that this is, in fact, the practice at the 9:30 Club. At any rate, because there's water water available, I'd advise not bothering with bringing any.

I could have sworn I was drinking Guinness there at a Flogging Molly show.

Then again, I was dumping a shot of Jamesons into each glass, so it could have been Newcastle Brown. Whatever. It was brown, I was drunk, and all was right with the world. :lol:

I'd love to see them in London next year, and if I must get peed on then so be it. Odd sort, these English. :wink:

Prob because FM tours are sponsored by Guinness. Lucky them.

Yep, Jamesons it is then.
