There are a couple of opportunities for the East Coasters to catch up with her metal highness, Annapolis, Philly, NoVA, etc. Priestess recently (last Sunday?) opened for GWAR at Sonar. As much as I wanted to catch that show, it just wasn't in the cards. This show, according to State Theater's website pairs them with Nashville Pussy on September 12th. If this is the case, then I might have to do this...

For those who have never been, State Theater is a great venue. We caught Black '47 there the last time Black '47 did the Baltimore/Washington area...was that early this year? Or late last year? At any rate, good food, tables between the bars, with stairs on both side that lead to a dancefloor area. If you are boozing the cab ride isn't that expensive ($12?) out of Arlington (I don't know about DC). We got shellshocked and our only issue was catching a cab back...but, in typical Metro D fashion, we got it done. Rumor has it that there is an Orange Line Metro within walking distance...but we weren't sane enough to make it happen. We aren't worthy of our own name.

Check out the State Theater site below, there are some interesting shows coming through: Mates of State, Dead Kennedys (new lead singer), Lez Zeppelin, Gin Blossoms, Blue Oyster Cult (insert cowbell joke here)...
