You couldn\'t even get into that lodge last year for tea leaf green. Moe played outside and tea leaf played right after them indoors. What happens? All the moe.rons that have been putting up with the cold go "k, moes done, screw this it\'s 20 out here before wind-chill, we are going inside" and the entire crowd rushes the building. It doesn\'t matter what you sound like you are guaranteed a maximum occupancy fire code violation sized crowd and they are going to stay because it is so cold outside.
Whoever gets that is sitting pretty as far exposure.
so how does a band go about gettin\' this slot?
fair enough.... maybe Chadwick would do the deed....:shrug::duck:
rotfl :point:
a shot in the mouth to get cross country
between him and upstate, there shouldn\'t be a problem. they\'ll probably end up fighting each other for the chance to do the deed..
****...I would do the deed if it would get us that gig......only with Al or Vinnie though
i hear it has to be chuck, gencs....
