Sweet!Can't make B'Ham. These are a must. Looks like the solo thing is not so infrequent these days.

Wow! Kick ass -
I had no idea Cooley would play my birthday party at the Earl - Love it!
East ATL here we come!

[psychobillycadillac]

This is awesome! We will definitely be in for both nights.

[colodogdoc]

Dude is killin' me with the weeknight shows. What is UP with that??? I might actually have a chance of seeing one or more of these if they were on a Friday or Saturday.

[jdwolf]

^ I agree! come to Athens on Saturday Cooley!

[Penny Lane]

So leave an hour early from work Wednesday afternoon. Catch earliest available flight to Atlanta. Venue is less than 10 miles from airport. Get to venue by 8PM. Show. Personal day off on Thursday. Pregame all day. Show. Shower spillage beer off and change into work clothes while sobering up. Redeye back to NY. Easy peasy Japanesy.

[psychobillycadillac]

Got my tickets for Friday night! The Melting Point is a great venue, going to be a stark contrast to the shows the nights before that one at The Earl.

[joshN]

yea, that's how it showed up on my bill too....i'm assuming that the businesses are related, maybe the owner uses his other business for cc receipts?

The Melting Point is located on the grounds of the Foundry Park Inn & Spa.

Yes, it's a two-block stumble to* the 40 Watt. For just a few bucks more, you can stay at the much nicer Courtyard, which is directly across the street from the Dazed.




* or, rather, back from

[jdwolf]

Actually, it's a little further away than that~
