August 1 - Chattanooga, TN - Rhythm & Brews
August 3 - New York, NY - Mercury Lounge
August 12 - Murfreesboro, TN - The Boro
August 20 - Atlanta, GA - The Earl

I was just thinking this morning about how much I miss seeing the Features and I come into work and see the announcement. Very, very cool.

They're playing The Boro!?! That is a no-brainer for me (3 days after my birthday-- good enough).

I'll be traveling from Gatlinburg to Nashville on August 1st. Hmmm...
Daigle is all we need to make the night complete

Gatlinburg is the same distance from Chattanooga as Nashville.

Yay! I'm so happy The Features are coming back to Chattanooga, despite the annoying people at the Vineyard earlier this year. But Digsy and HaveSomeSoma did smack them around a lot which was great. (Remember the lead singer of Beyonce holding the Light Bright and doing the interpretive dance? HA.) I'll definitely be there! biggrin.gif

simone - please feel free to adopt & disseminate "tool-licious" as you will.
i loved it the moment it first came to my mind & will share it freely. i am always making up words. especially to describe aforementioned types of behavior, be it mine or of others! wanktastic is my other descriptor of choice these days. biggrin.gif

wepeel? that sounds dirty. tongue.gif dare i ask?

& just as an FYI, the rose in the lapel is a Gilmore Girls reference. i am not really that moronic. just watch to much TV & then it comes back to haunt me.

also, when i tried to type this post, i forgot to log on & it said "...if you don't know how to use a feature..." ...i laughed my damn ass off. i could only think "oh, do i ever !" laugh.gif hee!!! how funny is it that is says that. at least it makes up for me being stuck at work on a freakin' saturday

I will miss all of those shows because of my job....
unless I drive to Chattanooga.....
You can't give up hope just because it's hopeless. That's when you have to hope even harder, and stick your fingers in your ears and go "la la laaah!"

I hope so. Features management told me they were not playing on that date, so there is supposedly a Privates show.

I will most likely be attending the New York show, as well.
I TOTALLY AGREE!

Well, the Dame's website has them listed as playing on August 13th too. I hope that's right, I'll definitely be there. Only $5!!!

yup, no nyc for me, but I swear to God that one of these days I'm going to one of the "distant'' shows - I guess Chattanooga will have to suffice for now . . .

i'm too scared to drive out to murfreesboro solo. if anyone could give me a ride i would really appreciate it. or, if someone could ride with me (at your own risk)...
