For those interested in O.A.R., they are coming home in December. Here is the e-mail I got today:

We are about to say so long to another incredibly fun year and we hope you will all join us in DC for our final shows of 2004. Where better than at the legendary 9:30 Club? We want to celebrate the holidays back at home and we hope you will be there. Not you! You over there....yeah you.

which show are you guys going to go to? Maybe we'll carpool?

That sounds like a great idea. I am not sure which show we are going to because Benj usually decides that. From what I remember, in the past he usually gave tickets to his close friends one night and family the next. But y'know what- go ahead and get tickets for one of the nights (I am thinking the second night will be better) since they will be sold out fast and we will make sure to go that night. kay?

I'll go ahead and buy 2 tix for the second night - if Benj should just "happen" to have some extras for us as well then I am sure that ebay or Craigslist will be happy to handle the task of letting someone else enjoy the night as well!

Sounds good. I will speak to Benj about the second night- as for the extra tickets- who knows. Y'wanna drive?

I've been trying for the last 20 minutes and can't get tix - could it have sold out so quickly?

Posted by: ravomess at November 5, 2004 10:20 AM

OK - it finally went through! Sure, we'll drive.

What's OAR?
It's been 20 some years since I listened to HFS on a regular basis. So I really don't know the scene anymore. And did I understand from one of your posts that you or Greg was related to someone in the band?

Yes, Greg's brother, Benj is the bass player. O.A.R. stands for ....of a revolution. I don't really know how to describe it. their website is www.ofarevolution.com I think you can listen to some of their music on the site. The music is pretty unoffensive with a pretty positive message.
