about hearing Robber Robber in DC

Robber Robber played Rhizome in Washington, DC, on Friday, May 22, 2026.

Empath, a band in which the lead singer/guitar player channels her guitar through a bunch of watery effects opened. That band’s drummer had a little tambourine-like bell on his toms. He wore a dirty white tank top, shorts, and a mustache. There was a cinder block against the bass drum. At first, they had to mush the block back against the bass drum because the kit kept moving. The drummer finally gave up and rested the cinder block half inside the bass drum hole.

Robber Robber’s “Two Wheels Move the Soul” was released April 3, 2026. They covered “Suspicious Minds.” The drummer was amazing—and he was just filling in for the regular drummer. The singer announced that more than halfway through the show. I was flabbergasted, he was so good.

(posts) Hall & Oates performing "She's Gone"


"Rich Girl" and "You Make My Dreams Come True"? Both great songs. But "She's Gone" is my favorite. 

 

Written by Daryl Hall and John Oates, "She's Gone" appeared on the duo's 1973 album, Abandoned Luncheonette. This video captures them playing it in early 1976.
