The gig a couple of nights ago in this new club was a bust. The club itself was decent. There was a decent PA, the bartender/manager was an old pal. But being a last minute gig, nobody knew we were there. Looks like the band may get to open for English Beat later this month which would be cool.

Bad stats:

1. There were more people in the green room than in the audience.
2. There were more mics on my drum kit than people in the audience.
3. I think the club actually lost money on liquor, since there was more free beer consumed in the green room than the club sold.
4. “Zero” is the number of gigs the soundman had done before this one.
5. “45” is the number of minutes it took said soundman to get the PA working for a 3 piece band (followed by our singer’s comment: “can we start playing this week sometime?”

I won’t mind playing there again, provided there’s a crowd.

Got a fairly last minute booking in a new club tonight. This club is managed by the former manager of a former club that was once the best music venue in town. A report will follow…

Also, have the metal guitar session tomorrow. Hope the guy’s marshall doesn’t fry again.

Sometimes the gigs suck. Last night didn’t. Good crowd and lots of good looking women When there are lots of good looking women, there are lots of men and the band makes bucks and has fun.

There were a lot of cute chicks with tight bodies kissing each other last night. We do get a lesbian crowd but most of them are fat. These chicks turned out to be what I heard called “lipstick lesbians.” Lipstick lesbians are hetero chicks who act like lesbos in public to get attention.
