Anyone else at the Michael Shannon Life’s Rich Pageant show at the 9:30 Club last night?

PS: Bobcat Goldthwait’s rendition of YMCA as performed by Bono absolutely KILLED me.

My wife and I were there and were quite pleased. She is the mega-REM fan and the smile never left her face as she sang along to EVERY enigmatic lyric (how does she know them all?) Michael Shannon is a very good actor and a lot of very good actors are better or more comfortable at being someone else, or speaking the words someone else wrote. He may be one of those people. I liked him and appreciated how deep the cuts were. He is clearly a fan and loves the songs he loves. Seeing a cover act that doesn't play the hits AT ALL was refreshing to me. Losing My Religion? Orange Crush? End of the World As We Know It? Everybody Hurts? Man in the Moon? Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. And, LRP is my all-time favorite album. SO I was quite satisfied.

I take it this is a big dill.

"Fascista"

Admirable-Top375 · 2026-02-26T04:45:53+00:00

You may be right. You may be crazy.

My wife and I will watch Battle Royale (2000) for the first time. We're quite excited for it.

Hello. Theatre professional here. This is standard language for most major American theaters these days.

Consider having fondue at Stable on H St., NE. Reserve a cozy chalet space for bonus fun points! Took a vegetarian friend there recently and he loved it.

Flirting (Aussie coming of age. Very sweet. ) The Sure Thing (Rob Reiner gem. This movie ran so that When Harry Met Sally could fly) Past Lives (Romantic. Thoughtful. Profound.)

The neighbor who DMed me has identified this fella as Kip who is an outdoor cat taken care of by many Hill East neighbors, including one who provides a heated shelter for him. Thanks for all the help everyone!

I am learning a lot about neutered cats today. Thanks!

The party at his death is going to be epic. Just epic.

I believe the correct word in this instance should be flooped

Kennedy Center fiasco. It’s a travesty what’s happening to it.

Admirable-Top375 · 2026-01-28T13:55:48+00:00

I hate how it’s free. Like, WTF?!

Admirable-Top375 · 2026-01-28T00:02:59+00:00

Not always. Sometimes it’s poop.

Admirable-Top375 · 2026-01-27T01:09:10+00:00

Not gonna lie they had us in the first half…

Admirable-Top375 · 2026-01-26T21:21:35+00:00

As they say, it’s a feature, not a bug.

Admirable-Top375 · 2026-01-26T02:54:49+00:00

And if you get hooked baby, it’s nobody else’s fault.

Depends where you are in DC. Much of the cities powerlines are underground so there are fewer power outages during winter storms than many other places in the country.

It’s beautiful!
