Thanks to the recent success of our "Summer Luvin' '04" membership drive, the number of people on this mailing list has jumped. While we're thrilled to have everyone aboard, an unfortunate side-effect is that our staff of writers got so stressed and pressured about having to write to twice as many people that, one day, they got up to "take a break" and never came back. So we're back to having to write this stuff ourselves.
The short of it is: Shows, we got shows.
First off, if you take only one thing away from this email, take this:
DC9, Washington DC, Wednesday, July 28, $8, 9:00 pm
w/ The Ladybug Transistor and Essex Green
It's always great to play, and especially at DC9, but especially especially when we get to play with indie stars like The Ladybug Transistor and Essex Green. So get there early, hear us rock it (note: we are planning on rocking it) and then hang out with us and drink beer (note: we drink beer) while listening to the sweet, sweet sounds of New York's finest indie/'60's retro. If you only come to one Positions show this summer, make it this one.

But wait! There's more! If you're more of a sit-down type, more of a Walker Kong fan, more of a "I like my nights out over by 10:00" person, then come see us next Monday, July 26th at Common Grounds in Arlington at 8:00 pm sharp. It'll be just your cup of tea. AND, you'll be in a place where you can order an actual cup of tea.
What? Not enough for you? Okay, what do we have to do to get you into a show? Tell us and we'll do it. Play a Monday show at DC9 with Boyracer? If that's what it takes, that's what we'll do. So it's done. Our boss is going to kill us, but here it is: Monday, August 9th, DC9 with Boyracer, 9pm. Now THAT is a deal you can't pass up.
Also, if you're so lucky to be in Athens, Georgia on August 7th, we'll be playing there, too. At the 40 Watt, the toddling grounds of REM and site of a life-altering Belle and Sebastian show in '98. Some of The Positions are getting a little overwhelmed with excitement over this.
Stay tuned,
The Positions
