9:30 club
in DC. What is it like? I imagined it would be tiny, but PIL is playing it.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

Its pretty big, not huge. I saw Gwar there 97, and got kicked out of a Rollins Band show a week later for taking a SIP of beer(I was 20)

in the 70s there was a club at 930 F street called the atlantis.
it closed, then reopened as the 9:30 Club around 1980, i think.
it was small and awkward from what i remember.
watch that minor threat video - you'll see giant pillars right in front of the stage.
anyway, it moved to a bigger venue (which was also a different music venue previously) in the mid-90s.

That club is one that I always heard about. Like how's I'd hear about Coney Island High, Unitarian Church, CBGB's and Gillman Street. No idea what
any of them are like but as a kid who is in the midwest those places always seemed like Meccas for HC and Punk Shows.
