I got a private show from "Irving":http://www.thebandirving.com/ when they swung through DC in Nov. They played an unannounced set before my friends "The Fake Accents":http://www.myspace.com/thefakeaccents at Rock & Roll Hotel. I may not have mentioned this before, but I LOVE this band. I used to play tracks off of Good Morning Beautiful on my old radio show all the time, but Death in the Garden, Blood on the Flowers is _easily one of my favorite albums of this past year_. When I saw that they didn't have a DC stop on their tour, I even considered going to NYC to catch their show. I was rewarded for laziness, 'cause they showed up and played just for me.... and they couldn't have made me happier. Due to the early hour and lack of publicity, the only people there were me, the other bands, some bartenders and someone's girlfriend. It was pretty evident that I was the only person who knew who they were (shame), and about halfway through I shouted a request. After that, they just asked me what I wanted to hear. While this may not have been totally rewarding for the band, I was totally thrilled. Irving rules.
