    sorry, no msg extras

    Dr Dog show was good as always. I think their shows in october were better. I like the new album but the songs are pretty mellow live. The Fillmore is a gorgeous building, but the layout for concerts isn't the best. The room where the stage is located is pretty long and narrow. I prefer the UC layout better for concerts. The drinking scene at the Fillmore is better -- TONS of bar space.

    Electric factory at #16??? Union transfer is the best, surprised first Unitarian church made the list though.

    yeah, agreed. The Tower might be my favorite of all of them (minus the location).

    How was Bloc Party? I used to like their old stuff. Haven't listened to them in ages and didn't see much positive stuff about their latest album.

    I'm supposed to go to Wilco at the Mann on saturday. I don't think I can make it. If anyone wants my tix (seated tix) they can have them - no charge. Don't want them to go to waste.

    Bloc party was ok. Yeah their latest album wasn't that good. Their drummer and bassist left last year and their replacements aren't as good. Also live they weren't as good as they have been. I wasn't going to go but won tix from y-not radio.

    Was thinking of seeing wilco since I've never seen them before. If you can't find anyone to get rid of your ticket I might be able to take it.

    North Broad? Coming from outside of the city it would have to be a really good show for me to want to go up there. How far up Broad are we talking?
