Correction: I was planning on going to Groovatron before I saw the Bfast dates. I thought I wouldn\'t make it to Madison because all my friends had already planned to go to LBC November 11th. I\'m slowly talking them into heading north, though.
Also... what is the deal with this LBC place? Is it the only venue in the state? It\'s kind of expecting a lot to expect the band t book at the one venue that is good for you.
Um, refer to this post:
in Indianapolis, like the Music Mill (http://www.themusicmillvenue.com/) or Birdy\'s (http://www.birdyslive.com/).
It\'s not that LBC is the only venue in the state. It\'s just that they probably couldn\'t fill a venue like the Music Mill yet (they take people like Kottke/Gordon and Pat McGee Band), and other venues the same size as LBC around the state aren\'t really worth playing. The concert-going dynamic around those other venues isn\'t good enough - there are NO heads around here unless you go to a venue by a large university. I\'ve lived here all my life and I\'m quite familiar with smaller venues in every corner of this godforsaken state. Do you really want to see The Breakfast play a show at a place called the
Lil\' Ole Opry in Nashville, Indiana (which is right down the road from towns called GnawBone and Bean Blossom)? A venue where the featured artist is usually a washed-up country music playing hack? A venue that can seat 250 people but doesn\'t have enough room for even 10 people to dance? The only other two venues I could see them playing right now are either Mishawaka Brewing Company by Notre Dame or the Bluebird by Indiana University. I\'m just so stuck on LBC because they\'ve already played here once, had a good experience, and if they were to come BACK, the word would spread faster and would open doors for them in Indy.
I went to LBC last weekend to see an acoustic artist play. There were 300+ people there. Imagine if we could do that for The Breakfast.
