Not to get ahead of ourselves, and it is probably more for next year, but we hope to get some of the records out in Europe and get over there. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

oh, any chance of another Rocksoff boastcruise in NYC?

doubtful. I dont think it was very easy for the boys to play under those conditions

Todd · « **Reply #19 on:** April 16, 2006, 08:11:42 pm »

The bigger boat doesn\'t rock as much as the one they played on. Doubtful they would get booked on the big one this summer though.

i saw Badfish on the bigger boat, it was pretty sick. it\'s like a big bowl with a balcony that wraps around. we would have to guarantee selling out the boat in order to get that one and that mean presale tickets

please. some bands do it everysummer. the small boat is small, but still. the "conditions" arent that bad.

we had a power outage last year, just as the show began. it sucked and wasted about 10-15 minutes but I\'d say that was the only bad thing, that and $5 cans of Buds.

jeff. UM had a power outage too when they played. par for the course. **** happens.

the thing that pisses me off is everyone thinks the band is too good to play these types of things. i see it all the time. while they may be "too good" musically, they arent "too good" at drawig crowds to places like NYC and NJ. they need everchance they get, and the boatcruise\'s are just plain fun.

its NYC, guy. what do you expect?

I forget who, but one, maybe more, of the band members was feeling sick from being on the boat for a few hours before fan boarding. That and it must be hard as hell to play guitar while swaying side to side like a drunken sailor.

I\'ve seen hinm swaying playing guitar on solid land and still sound kick ass. I\'m pretty sure it was Adj that wasn\'t feeling well but I\'m not positive either

considering those were the only two downfalls, I\'d say do it again. This time they know what to expect and hopefully can make adjustments.

I don\'t think anyone really thinks they are "too good" to play Rocks Off, if they do, then they are flying on a much higher cloud than I.

How about they announce the Summer tour??? How are we two weeks out of May and there are no June dates? They really need to make a concerted effort to get dates out quicker, make it easier for the fans to get plans in order.

this is an excellent point. something really needs to be done about this. it\'s the reason i didn\'t make it out west for any shows, and i wanted badly to get out there..

prime example - by the way, there\'s a show in Bloomington, Indiana (where?) next Wednesday.. 9 days from now.. i just found out about it, so it\'s here now.. but it\'s not on the band\'s official site, not on the venue\'s site, and it\'s not on jambase. so unless you know to go to crescendoartists.com, you\'re not gonna know about this show.. how much promotion is going to be done for this show in 9 days?

i\'m glad they\'re playing more, but people need to know when they\'re playing ahead of time..

wiredchicken · « **Reply #28 on:** April 17, 2006, 12:03:00 pm »

great point, peck. get all these shows announced at the same damn time. or close to. instead of peicing togethere a tour with 9days notice. my buddy thats moving to bllomington next week should be happy, though

Klout · « **Reply #29 on:** April 17, 2006, 12:23:59 pm »

I agree. Dates need to be announced sooner so people can make plans.

I was going to fly out to colorado for the steamboat run but tickets were 400 a week after the shows were announced.
