No Webster Please What Are You Thinking??? Uac Toads Porters My House Anything But The Webster! Pearl St Sucks Too!
yeah, the webster blows goats. and not cute goats,either. the stinky, \'just ate a tin can\' type.
If the place gets::GASP:: some people in it then surprisingly it sounds good...of course with the 200 person turnouts that the one-nighters pull in it doesn\'t sound good. Maybe a 2 night stand for NYE will bring in some::GASP:: CROWDS???
It\'s not just about sound, ambience counts too, and the Webster ain\'t got it!
And I don\'t think that place would sound GOOD with lots of people there. Maybe BETTER, but I doubt good.
walsh, my question is this~ if i live in va and know that the webster is one of the worst venues around, then obviously local folks know it too. so, why would you want to book gigs at a place that people don\'t want to go to? i think i read somewhere that they get paid well to play there, so that\'s one (good) reason, but beyond that??? i mean, if tB were playing, say, a rented out theatre or a slightly smaller than toads type club, don\'t you think more folks would be inclined to go to the show? maybe the reason that most of the recent webster shows have had such crappy attendance is that no one wants to go through the hassle?
now, maybe i\'m clueless and the webster fills up all the time with other acts. but, personally, i find that hard to believe. i wouldn\'t go back there for any band, frankly. and i certainly wouldn\'t come up for nye there (or halloween, for that matter), even though i really want to see the boys. i mean, if it were work-possible, i\'d be at the beardslee show and then drive home. and i didn\'t even get searched that tough at the webster. but the room wasn\'t built for sound, hasn\'t been modified for sound and has the complete wrong soundsystem/pa for shows based on the size/shape of the room. maybe i\'m just a snob, but that\'s three strikes, to me....
i dunno where they should play, but are there any alternative venues that maybe aren\'t always/usually music venues that they could play? somewhere where fans could get n early and party decorate the place into a psychedelic wonderland? someplace that the location alone would induce people to go rather than hinder them?

:gasp: big crowds can\'t save the webster. :gasp:
ahahahahahaha Dave that was funny
if the breakfast only draw 200 for one night... how do we expect them to draw more for two nights....?

cause when you add up the amount of people that go the first night with the amount of people that go the second night, you have a bigger crowd, cause math.
Cause math! rotfl
Dave you are funny today buddy!
This will hopefully be decided this week. One of the venues threw a monkey wrench into our plans, and we are having to rethink some stuff.
Sorry for the delay, i know its inconvenient.
Film at 11:00.

I heard that :gasp: thanks to walsh :gasp: the band maybe thinking of Mill Street Brews in Southbridge as a potential NYE spot....so why dont we all try to make it then we can voice our informed pleasure or displeasure if it is indeed where they end up playing..
I will give you my opinion following tonight\'s inspection. Looks good on web.....
