i think i'm going in january or february. depends how much cash i net over the holidays. i'm into music, art, etc. i'd go to a good lecture if there's on going on. the only club i know of is 9:30 and i don't even know where that is.

what do you do when you go? just curious.
EDIT: not sure how long i am staying. probably a few days to a week...

the 930 is alright, but expensive and with mainstream tendencies-- certainly more than when it was on F street (ages ago). the black cat is more to my taste and has good bands. there's a string of new places on H street (rocknroll hotel + others) but that popped up after i moved out-- i ALMOST went to see AMT last time i was there but i had to catch a flight out. all that you can find on the internet.

for art, there are galleries, but see also the east wing of the national gallery and the hirshhorn. the natl. gallery often has free movies-- either about the current exhibits or just great movies by themselves. and lectures if you want.

pick yourself up a copy of the city paper when you get there, or see it online before you go, or check out DCist online.

and get yourself a metro pass.

gotta go make dinner, but i'll check for this thread later or some other time.
