When I bought the tickets I just assumed I would be able to go. Sure, I'm supposed to be in "college," or whatever, but I have no idea when the actual classes start. It's all in the same city, so I didn't think it would be a problem.

I'd really love to see Big Black, but I can't justify it, since I am going to see Shellac and Sonic Youth within about a week of eachother just a little before that.

NEWS: August 11, 2006 - the 25th band and much more! We’re proud as hell to introduce the final addition to the Touch and Go 25th Anniversary Block Party: legendary D.C. punks The Monorchid. If you were lucky enough to catch them during their brief lifespan (1996-1998), you’re probably still reeling from the impact. If this is your first time, you might want to strap on a helmet. And maybe some shoulder pads. In addition to the current lineup, we have invited a number of our artists to do some solo and duo performances in between the 25 full-band performances. The list of artists include: Sally Timms, PW Long, Tim Midgett and Andy Cohen (Silkworm), Brick Layer Cake, Cash Audio, Tara Jane ONeil, and Jon & Kat (Mekons and The Ex). View the lineup now - including what artists on what days. A limited number of single-day tickets go on sale Friday, August 18. Go to the tickets page for updated info on advance tickets, and ticket availability at the event.
