No Del for DC. What’s he up to anyway?
And DC but not Pittsburgh misses out on Matmos. I almost headed to NYC earlier this year for a show but decided against it. Too bad they won’t be in Philly or NYC when I’m there this month.
Last, Albert Hammond Jr. of The Strokes is skipping town, [...]
The Knife is skipping our fair city, although there’s a solid chance I’ll be checking them out at CMJ Music Marathon.
And given how full of himself the lead singer is, maybe we should be thankful CYHSY is skipping DC.

DC hatas called out:
DJ Shadow
Busdriver
Beck
Soulwax isn’t bothering to hit the West’s capital on their latest tour. Too bad for them. There is, however, a Soulwax event at Rock ‘n’ Roll Hotel tonight, though. These guys are the only ones who could ever rock the mashup, and they still do. Maybe they should stop, because they’re encouraging others to keep [...]

Pan Sonic
I have added a new category “MIA In DC” to tag all the posts highlighting how bands aren’t showing DC love. I had forgotten about this group until I came across a band I’d love to see isn’t coming to DC. You’ll have to wait until Tuesday to find out which band I’m talking about.

Mylo
Kid606
Measles Mumps Rubella (I don’t know this band, but they’re from DC and not touring DC!)
Beck and James Lidell are skipping the District. Not that I mind too much, given that Lidell is not so great and tickets are sure to be hefty. Oh, plus I would have to deal with the city’s surplus of young professionals. To swipe from the ever observant Soviets, our corporate and federal comrades have [...]
Also tagged Music, Washington DCLooks like the Fiery Furnaces will be in DC after all! Excellent.
Also tagged Music, Washington DCLooks like I’ll be taking a trip to New York at the end of June. Lady Sovereign and The Streets are touring the US with no DC stop, as are the Arctic Monkeys, who sold out their recent DC show right quick.
