Are you guys the only ones with Donna Summer tickets but trying to convince other people it's a good idea?
This is the second time it's been mentioned in a music roundup in as many days.

Donna Summer? simmadownnow!
guest number 10, If you want the concert placed in the correct DCist category, feel free to begin writing "Disco Infernotebook -- This Week (30 Years Ago) in a Flash" Or something like that.
And having said that, I'd like to offer my keyboard clacking talents toward a new DCist weekly segment, "Gimme the Lute: The Week Gone Baroque."
