did you read the list guy?  They\'re booked there

[derickw]

i would, no problem.  they cleaned the hell out of that place and got all new sound equipment and fixed the bathrooms.  they totally cracked down on underaged drinking and blantant drug use as well, i saw Reid and AOD there a month ago, it was pretty cool.

I tried telling you guys it really isn\'t that bad anymore. i still hate that freak\'n pole in the middle of the stage.

I\'d def. go.

hey Igzi, how was the Reid show, i wanted to go but for some reason i didn\'t end up going.

It\'s called motivation...... and I have large Kahuna\'s......     Its about dropping everything, and playing music, going on the road etc.... Its also a DIY band, we want to know first hand, that everything gets done. Its kinda funny to see our living room with 40 large promo envelopes, upwards of 10,000 1/4 sheet flyers and about 1,000 posters..... Do you know how long it took to write each venue on each poster we sent out......tedious, but its got to be done. We also run our own booking agency out of Fort Collins CO, we book a lot of local bands in the mountains as well as 3 other national acts (one from chicago and one from Iowa) and use it all to our advantage... I have tons of East coast contacts from Rezi. Our bassist has tons of Chicago and mid west contacts. Our keys and Drummer are from Ohio and also have a lot of mid west contacts.  Pretty much take 4 people who were in charge of their former bands, and put them together. There is tons of motivation and we all wanna play music for a living. So we practice, work for the business, and go on the road, and it RULES!!!! So come check it out you wont be disappointed.

also, I am gonna call the Living Room Today

I booked all the breakfast shows there, as well as promoted, provided sound, provided lodging and did the door (except for the last one where Dobz was in Australia, where I did sound) the last one went a little sour, it was like 3 1/2 weeks after they had last played, their agent at the time needed to fill the date, which I said OK, it was the same deal as usual, but the crowd was about 1/2 the normal size, being that it was finals week, band wasnt happy with the turnout, and never came back.

Wah knows how much it raged in O-twiz, he was there one night, me and him were hassling this retard who refused to pay the cover, so he argued with us for like an hour, and we wouldnt let him in, then we made him pay $1 for the last 5 min of the show....this was also first night Ellis D used the lights I paid for to do lighting for the breakfast.....

The first time the breakfast played at the pub, there was an after party that started at our house before we even loaded the band out of the bar, before I even got home, then I roll in and there is a 60 lb Nitrous tank 5 30 racks of Busch, about 70 kids in our house and 2 college professors, a whole slew of kids jammin in the jam room. One teacher was jammin with us while the 5 footer was goin round. Then we jammed til like 5am, it was sweet.
