About Tonight

2007_0925_abouttonight%282%29.jpg

>> Terrific local volunteer organizers Greater DC Cares are hosting a happy hour tonight at Mackey's with what looks to be free or deeply discounted beers provided by sponsor Samuel Adams. 6 to 8 p.m. Non-volunteers welcome to attend and learn more about the organization.

>> The Lost Bayou Ramblers bring their Cajun dance music up from Louisiana for a free concert at 6 p.m. at the Kennedy Center Millennium Stage.

>> Black Cat, Black Cat: Canadians Shapes and Sizes are the newest artists on Sufjan Steven's Asthmatic Kitty label, and they will offer up melodic pop at the Black Cat's backstage with Brooklyn's Yeasayer at 9 p.m. for $10. Upstairs it's iconic Czech freedom fighters Plastic People of the Universe, whose last show at the venue brought out Vaclav Havel himself. With Macitajs on Acid, $15.

>> Dr. Dremo's hosts another Washington Psychotronic Film Society screening of note, Ari Alexander Ergis Magnusson's Screaming Masterpiece, an appropriately odd ode to the Icelandic music scene featuring Björk, Sigur Rós and many more. 8 p.m. showtime, $2 suggested donation.

What is in the background of this picture? I saw that development a few weeks back, but I have no idea what it is...anyone know?

 

Anyone know what that development is in the background of this picture?

 

I think it is the convention center that PG is building opposite of Old Town.

 

Right it's National Harbor, being built across the river from Old Town:

It's the National Harbor development, just south of the Wilson Bridge.

 

Get thee to Dremo's before it's too late!! Doors are closing for good late January of next year....
