Silver Blackfield

On Monday night, I went to see the band Blackfield at IOTA Club and Cafe in Clarendon (Arlington). Blackfield was great, and it was fun to see them in such an intimate setting. The two founding members of Blackfield were present: Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree, and Israeli singer-songwriter Aviv Geffen. They were joined by Jordan Rudess of Dream Theater.

Well, for some reason I figured they’d be stopping for dinner at Silver Diner at some point. It’s in the heart of Clarendon, and it just seemed like the kind of place that a touring band would stop before a show. That was about all the thought I put into it.

Today I checked out Jordan Rudess’ blog, and I saw an entry talking about the DC show. Sure enough they stopped by Silver Diner! Here’s a photo taken of Aviv Geffen sipping on “the LARGEST glass of coke in history!!” according to Jordan.
