I don't care if it's been over two years, I have to say screw about 80%
of the clowns at that show. I'd seen many Gang of Four sound-a-likes in DC
and the crowds were always courteous, the real thing comes to town with
jacked up ticket prices and the goons come out....good set by the band
overall.

As for smoking, it's lame. Though it is good to see what it takes to
get Dave Bartholomew active on this list. I've had several people say to me
they didn't want to go to Trivia night at the 506 because of the smoke.
Most people say they won't go because they suck at trivia...but anyways, the
smoke on trivia night really isn't that bad relatively speaking, but I
wouldn't be upset if it were banned. Although the 506 has quite a history
with the "drug addicts" and drug addicts, since Glenn took over he has done
a great job of improving the place over the years...and the Goodyear tire
shop on the corner added lights and a closed garage so the junkies can't use
their garage as a shooting gallery, the neighborhood's improved and we
didn't need no Giulliani jacking up the rents.

As for Grayson, I love him, I will rag on his Cow College Wuff-pack
every chance I get, but I love him.

As for Kevin Grealey, shut up and enjoy the Noncannon video you cranky
curmudgeon.
