''Classic DC sound'' ???  Oh man... as a hostage of this wretched city for
some time now I've yet to hear a real _sound_ come out of DC sing early
post-punk.  I mean, we've got a few bands that don't (mostly 'cause of
Baltimore) suck but other than go-go there's no DC sound.  If there was one
it would, like most alt-culture anomalies that try to surface around here,
be drastically under-appreciated.

*stepping off soap-box*

Speaking of the Nation's Crapital -- why am I hearing DC and SDRE uttered in
the same sentence?  Where was I when they played here?  Really... did I
blink and miss them fly through town?  I've only seen them in Cali and
Oregon...
