I was just about to post this, was looking and didn't see it posted anywhere else either.  Sounds like a good time.  Count me in on the Fillmore.

Sweet! In for D.C. 

Tickets aren't on sale yet.  If anyone hears about on sale dates for these shows please inform.  I'll do the same when I hear.  The Birchmere is small and will likely sell out.

I went to Yim's website, then Shows, then hit a dead end... so I went to the venue's website, hit a link for tix, and ended up in the evil land of Ticketbastard.  They had onsale date and time and price ($30.50 incl. fees; not bad).  The only other on sale date I could find has already been mentioned... DC 1/13 @ noon.

Not too sure myself. Stagger & I were discussing the venue & neither one of us had heard of Union Transfer. Much like you, we've been to a ton on venues in Philly. If anyone has been to Union Transfer & can provide some insight it would be much appreciated!

I've been doing some research and it looks like it used to be a restaurant, The Spaghetti Warehouse. I did read some reviews of Union Transfer, on google and yelp, and it's recieved some great reviews. That's always comforting to hear. I'm not a big fan of philly venues, so I'm looking forward to this show.

Yeah.  Thanks, CC.  No offense for the "dead end" comment, I hope.  I see the on sale dates got added.  Good man!   :dankk2:

Now, about the solo album release date...  ::)
