Craigslist.com ad for a "Capitol Hill Night Club For Sale"-- $450,000, 5,800 square feet, mysteriously un-named -- went like this:
"Location, Location, Location! Space shows very well. Major renovation
completed in May 2006. Top of the line equipment, no expense spared.
Turn-key operation can easily be converted to a new operator's concept."
**It's not Neumo's, and it's not Chop Suey, according to reps at those clubs.

Check out billboard.com today for a photo of Eddie Vedder and Bono, arms raised, hand in hand, victory-style, at a concert in Melbourne, Australia, where Bono and The Edge of U2 joined Pearl Jam for a cover of Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World."
According to Billboard, several Aussie acts were also on the bill at the "Make Poverty History" concert, on the eve of a two-day G20 summit of 19 countries, the European Band, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The concert was broadcast on Australian television.
Bono lambasted Australian Prime Minister John Howard for not displaying leadership on the issue of poverty, telling the concert crowd, "Politicians all have to do what you tell them to do. Scream it from the mountains!"
Vedder had blasted Howard four days earlier at a Pearl Jam gig in Melbourne.

The Rapture is now commonly referred to as a cutting-edge Brooklyn band â€" "NYC's flyest disco-punk hustlers" (Blender). Little-known fact: before hitting the Big Time (or, at least, Hip Time), the Rapture spent a year or so knocking around Seattle.
"There's some kind of Seattle pride going on that's very attractive," singer-guitarist Luke Jenner said, back in early '99 -- shortly after the band moved here from San Francisco. "We've had this overwhelming support."
Sub Pop courted the Rapture, but the band not long after headed East. In New York, the Rapture radically restructured its sound, hyping up the disco.
Truth be told: The Rapture sounded better when it was more punk, less dance, back in its Seattle days.
Anyway: Jenner and the Rapture plays from its new buzz-album "Pieces of the People We Love" at El Corazon tonight (Nov. 13). The all-ages show starts at 8 p.m.; $20.
