on Saturday, August 23rd at the Red Rose in Murfreesboro, there will be a big show celebrating the first weekend that everyone will be back in town for school.

Co-headlining are Glossary and Imaginary Baseball League... opening are Celebrity (from Nashville), and Come Down (a great band from New York City who are amazing people and who spent a day without power last week, so come energize them ......www.come-down.net). I have checked the schedules, the parties, the barmitzvahs (did I spell that right), and even the religious cult sacrifices, and there is nothing going on that night that will be more fun in the quad-state area.

come one and all!

So this answers my question about which band you are a part.

I don't know, YDDD, I think that just narrows it down to three.

Unless you make an assumption based on curtainsfall's first post...

Man, MTSU students have a pretty good weekend of music coming up! I hear Sam Ashworth and De Novo Dahl are playing everyone's favorite "18 and Up" venue in Murfreesboro on friday.

Ah...you're right.

I wonder if one of our favorite bass players/mb posters will be a part of this?

Sam is playing the Boro show by himself, I think. But things have changed at the last second before, so who knows.

Sam Ashworth + band are playing Saturday night at the Mercy Lounge.

busted. not that I was actively hiding it... I assumed someone would ask and I wasn't prepared to lie. i am in imaginary baseball league. i wouldn't normally come on here to advertise our shows, but the last 2 have seemed worthy of mentioning. i know the features msg board is reasonably kind to us, so I figured it a nice place to alert people of our show. I actually plan to refrain from it in the future, however the one this saturday will be one for the ages. I certainly wish the Features were playing it as well. but since they are not, and I am sure that you all would like something fun to do on a saturday night for the low price of only $5.

publicity shmublicity.

Well, all this publicity definitely worked. It got me to come to the Exit\In, and I'll probably come to this one, too, so I can be unreasonably kind to your fabulously captivating drummer, if you know what I mean. Now YOU know what you can do on Friday. (The Boro)

see, what a nice trade-off it is. this place is more informative about shows and local music gossip than the Rage, the Scene, and any website devoted to shows in the area. I come here for all things.

I'll try to make the Boro, but I doubt I'll do Red Rose.

I also don't know how to take "reasonably kind."

You mean like puppies vs. ice cream debates?

I plan to make both the red rose show (since i just adore IBL) and I also plan to attend the Boro show to see what these De Novo Dahl characters are all about since richarddawson has spoken so highly of them......

dnd are all about fun. and if you know what is good for you, you will go to the red rose on sat. good music is representing in murf all weekend long. thanks richard dawson for raving.

Is that a threat?

I'm getting more excited about seeing DND again (I still haven't seen a full set), and so Friday is more of a possibility.

no threat, i just want what is best for you. i will love to see you on friday. please introduce yourself. i'll be the one dragging my knuckles on the floor, and picking insects out of my bandmates hair.

Since I won't be dosing during Sam Ashworth, I won't know how you would identify me.

Reasonably kind is like saying "sort-of" nice. The mb (as a whole) is sort-of nice to them since most of us like them. But, we are not considered completely kind, because you once said that you would like to sleep during IBL's set. I hope that I helped clear that up.

I'm glad it's all my fault.

Only a few hours away!

Yeah, that's right-- I quoted myself. Whatcha gonna do about it, punks?

I, too, am getting excited. Work is done, and the weekend is here. Time to rock.

I too am excited to hear De Nova Dahl. The only other time I saw them I had a bad headache and had to leave. I hope this time is better

Never heard of 'em. Are they opening for De Novo Dahl?

I guess I said "reasonably kind" because I have read more favorable than unfavorable posts on here about us. I was actually really surprised that so many features fans enjoyed imaginary baseball league, since we are so different. Plus, I think the Features are great, so if people who like them like us, then I guess we are doing something right. The itinerary for tomorrow is as follows: Celebrity plays first, then Come Down (who are sort of a trippy british influenced band from NYC), then Glossary will play an acoustic set inside the Rose, and then we will close out on the patio. I am completely pumped. We're going to smash our instruments and spit and flip people off.

You're going to be held to that.

I didn't know in which thread I should say that DND rocked last night. I will only say two things about it--

1. Not since Self have I heard a mid-TN band who has such a big band sound in small venues.

2. Theirs is the most polished show of any performing band I've seen on the local scene ever.

Again, I apoligize.

So, I really enjoyed the show last night. I was sorry that I had to leave a little early. Maybe someday I will finally see a full De Novo Dahl set...

We had been going strong since before 5a, so we left due to sleepiness. I also have yet to see a full DND set.

It's a shame that neither Y3D and IWE haven't seen the close of a set when DND typically plays "Be Your Man", their equivilent to "Thursday". That songs kicks so much ass. For the record, it sounds nothing like "Thursday".

I can only hope that there will be a show soon (pref. on a Saturday night) that I will be able to attend.

Agreed.

Awesome show as always, y'all. Thanks for the vague dedication.

Who made it to the IBL show? I heard a good time was had by all. I'm sorry I missed it.

It was a very good show, carl......

I didnt care for Celebrity, and I didnt watch Glossary.

Imaginary Baseball League, however, put on a breathtaking show. "Patternize" was especially good last night.......Cant wait for the full length to come out (someday)

i thought the ibl show was fantastic. i don't know the names of their songs but there were a handfull that i thought were especially good.

I also heartily enjoyed the new IBL stuff... and Fat Kids Aren't Athletes always puts a smile on my face...

the show was great. It was a great night overall.

I, too, feel rather ashamed never to have made it through a full set. On all 3 occasions it was due to factors completely separate from the music. I love what I have heard live from DND, listen to their EP all the time, and thought they were great on Friday night. I am really, really looking forward to a show I can go to on Saturday night where I am not running on no sleep. On that glorious occasion, I will look forward to rocking out to "Be Your Man."

I hope it's soon!

yes, i must agree that this show was fantastic. my favorite show to date. i love this band so much that i even had a dream about them last night. i made my way over to the ibl merch table to buy something besides cardiact (which is, unfortunately, all i have), but nothing else was there. on instinct, however, i began to sift through the huge stack of cardiact ep's. in the middle of the stack i found a super secret cd with 14 tracks and a handwritten listing on the sleeve. i bought it for only $7. they said "man, i dont know how that got in there, but since you found it we'll let you keep it." what a wonderful dream. what a wonderful band.

odd dream hss. i must agree, though. great band. do you not have any of their other stuff downloaded?

no. since i became your neighbor i haven't gotten my computer hooked up yet. plus, before the move, i got that damn blaster virus so i wasn't able to use my computer then either.

isn't there another ep i can buy? if not...soon, downloads, soon.
