DC dude here. Honestly, people in the District take their jobs way more seriously than most and are less likely to stay up late on a weekday, so attendance suffers. Also, although DH rep DC, I always remembered them as having a bigger fan base in Richmond, and again, it's tough for that crowd to come up for a weeknight show. Can't say shit for ATR, though.
