Venerable D.C. music venue the Black Cat announced today that it will stop selling advance tickets through Ticketmaster, instead switching to competitor Ticket Alternative. The change will become effective September 25, so all shows that are taking place after that date are already on sale via Ticket Alternative.

Washington Psychotronic Film Society's Incorrigible Dr. Schlock—a.k.a. the Society's board president Carl Cephas—has announced plans to return the venerable purveyors of the bizarro cinema back to this side of the river, reports City Desk. As we mentioned last week, the Society is celebrating its 20th anniversary tomorrow night, and nearly half of those years were spent at Dr. Dremo's, before the tap house's closing rendered WPFS homeless. The non-profit moved to the Old Arlington Grill, a more difficult venue to reach for the Metro-bound, and certainly not as conveniently located for the post-happy-hour crowd WPFS depends on. Attendance and donations dropped, but WPFS hopes to reverse that trend at its new home at The Meeting Place at 1707 L Street, NW. With Metro accessibility and the potential for a significant after-work crowd, we hope they do well there. The first movie at the new place is a timely tribute to the recently deceased Rudy Ray Moore, with a screening of Dolemite on November 18.
