.... well, besides the obvious stuff! :mrgreen:

I'm heading into DC at the end of the month to attend this rally that Jon Stewart and Colbert are putting on. I'm staying near the airport but have a rental car so I've no problem driving around for some stuff. I plan on hitting up all the national stuff in DC but was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for clubs, sight-seeing, pubs, etc...

Anyone living in DC?

Haha Awesome, I'm thinkin bout going but it's a long ways from here.

I'd highly recommend the Smithsonian's or Library of Congress. If you are into museum's, you could kill 2 weeks of time at the Smiths. Dunno bout the club scene though

Adams Morgan is a place to check out for nightlife. It's up 18th street. Sit in at The Columbia Station shithole.
Also, U Street 14 and 15 blocks has a couple jazz clubs. The 930 club is cool.

:D Ole' Columbia Station .. A chill place with good musicians.

Bukom(Reggae),Bossa (Latin-Jazz),Madams Organ (Rock/Blues/Soul) and Rhumba Cafe (Latin Music) are all on 18th Street in Adams Morgan..

U street features some great music venues as well.
