At the 9:30 Club in DC, Drive-By Truckers on July 23




The Athens, Ga.-based band Drive-By Truckers will be performing at the fabled 9:30 Club in Washington, DC, on July 23 (tickets are $30). The band will also be opening for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers later this summer.

The Drive-By Truckers has a new documentary film about them called "The Secret to a Happy Ending" will be shown in Seattle at the Northwestern Film Forum which runs from Aug. 13-15.

The band is noted for their 'three axe attack' which includes three guitars with bass and drums. They are perhaps most-known for their 2002 album "Southern Rock Opera."

The Drive-By Truckers will also be performing at the Jupiter Bar and Grill in Tuscaloosa, Ala., on Sept. 16 and the Lincoln Theatre in Raleigh, NC, on Sept. 19.

The 9:30 Club has another interesting act on Aug. 14 when the legendary and highly-political rap band Public Enemy (tickets are $35) takes the proverbial stage.
