Dear Black Cat:
Next time you stupidly book a band with a heavy buzz and think about putting them on your infamous “Back Room” stage, think twice. I don’t know how many fire codes were in violation tonight, but if you knew you had a sell out on your hands, why didn’t you just open up the main stage upstairs so everybody could see the show? Are you trying to save some dough on your electric bill? Don’t you want to sell twice as much beer? At least the person taking tickets at the door had the decency to refund my $10 when my two friends missed the widely publicized(??) cut-off number and were denied admission. Otherwise, things might have really gotten ugly...

The band I didn’t get to see tonight was The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. They’ll be back, and we’ll be waiting… with tickets. In the meantime, here’s a track off their debut EP and it’s called “Doing All the Things That Wouldn’t Make Your Parents Proud.” Long band name. Long song title. Short song. Even shorter concert…
