Greetings folkers

The DID is hosting round 2 of the Wayne Calhoun Troubadour Series tomorrow night (Friday, June 2nd) featuring two of the area's best bands, lo-automatic and the Matthew Sturm Band. $5 cover, all ages, 7PM, on Calhoun Street between Wayne and Berry.

I keep hearing that lo.automatic is northern Indiana's answer to Wilco.

I keep hearing that Matthew Sturm is northern Indiana's answer to Ryan Adams.

For this reason, I expect them to throw down by the end of the night.


Here's the same ol poster I'm sure you're sick of seeing:

it looks like people didnt do enough anti-rain dances for this show

yeah...i was just about to head out and it started hitting hard. anyone know whats going on? the storm looks like it'll pass quickly.

Matt "Snakes on a plane" Jackson is right. Show no go. Damn too. I really wanted to see lo.automatic. Come to Columbia Street tonght and watch Sankofa.

45 minutes... maybe an hour.

if people would have held out for 45-60 minutes... you coulda rocked anyway!!!!

It's Indiana weather people.. if you don't like it, wait five minutes.. it'll change.

if you don't like it, wait five minutes.. it'll change.

Waited in the Dash with my girlfriend adn was sure that the show would go on. But alas, no go. Truly a sad day in the Fort.

right when the overcast hit, i checked the radar and could see it was a really small storm....it passed in about an hour, the sun came out, i headed downtown...and it was a ghost town.

hopefully there will be some sort of protocol establish in case this happens again-too many people work too hard for something to be cancelled so easily.

Agreed. More backbone needed. Too much work to throw it in that quickly.

It's really too bad, I hear that lo.automatic has a new bassist and that it was going to be his first show w/the band. Perhaps next time....

You can't have all that sound equipment laying around in the wet street and expect any of the city's sound engineers to want to have their gear out in those conditions. And the possibility that another shower could happen is just too great a risk.

exactly why you need a plan. rain is not the end all.

A tent would have been nice

is there gonna be a makeup date or will i have to wait until that jefferson pointe show to hear some all ages sturm

i was told there would be a make-up date. we were going to wait but the sound guy said it was in their contract to pack up if it rains. it was the right thing to do, but a plan b would've been nice. hopefully they will come up with one for the remaining shows.

i was told that if it rained the parking garage was plan B?
