| ______________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 2:29am - BingChlorine ""] You can book Spudnick's in Salem for free but the dude keeps all the money you make off doors and donates it to his church or something like that. |
| _________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 2:57am - joostin ""] what's that fellows e-mail?(the sputnix guy) |
| ______________________________ [Jun 27,2003 3:00am - blue ""] yeah, what is that email...i dont care about making money if i can book for free.... |
| __________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 6:01am - sinistas ""] http://sputniks.nip.net/ They should have booking email there. However, it may take a bit for them to get back to you. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 8:29am - the_reverend ""] commies "Sputnik's: The only Russian Venue On the North Shore" why is my pet demon on every show? where is this "stage" that they built (I didn't see it when I was there)? |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 9:49am - joe/notcommon ""] o'briens, bills bar, the middle east, the linwood, the chopping block, the midway cafe, and the milky way do not cost anything to book at plus people go to those venues |
| __________________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 11:10am - kellthevalkyrie ""] go super ghetto style at The Living Room or The Safari Lounge in Providence! where the toilets aren't bolted to the floor! wee! |
| ________________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 11:33am - joe/notcommon ""] i use to book command presence back when I booked shows have I met you before? |
| ___________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 12:20pm - sinistas ""] I'd imagine that My Pet Demon is on the show because the drummer books it |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 4:42pm - kellthevalkyrie ""] joe - are you talking to me? i'm sure i've met you before...i must have. i can't picture who you are, though... i used to hang out at wood's house a lot and went to all the CP shows. and they all know you, so i *must* know you...i just drink at shows a lot and my memory of people is bad. heh. |
| ________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 5:11pm - hybrid ""] hey if you're interested in a free booking try the well in portland, im working out a deal with them for july 25th, im not paying anything and i think i get half of the door, decent. waited like 8 months (no joke) of phone tag and e-mails saying they would get us in for a show and she finally e-mailed me saying that sometimes she lets people book their own nights. i think the website is www.porthaven.thewell.com or something like that... i can get you the actual website if you're interested, it's in portland, ME. i live in NH so it's not too far for my band, but if you live in connecticut or something... you're fucked. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 27,2003 5:15pm - blue ""] joe, id have to say that you do know kelly, she went to pretty much every cp show in existence. |
| ________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 7:11pm - xmikex ""] book for free? the only places you're going to get for free are shitty bars and the only people who go there are townies and bar flies. break down and spend a buck. stop being lazy. |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 7:16pm - joe/notcommon ""] actually those 'shitty' bars are the best venues its not just townies who go to them when bands play at o'briens people come who dig the bands playing, or the style of music in the case of the Bostons' Dead shows same thing will happen with the chopping block and also that happens at the linwood and at bills bar you just think that because you dont go to those shows |
| ________________________________ [Jun 27,2003 9:21pm - xmikex ""] no i just say so because whenever i picture a show at a bar (not including bills bar because i consider that a legit venue) all i can think of is the safari lounge or the tank and what useless piles of shit they are. |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 28,2003 1:28am - joe/notcommon ""] come down to the show on july 11th at o'briens i think you will like that place its hella fun |
| _____________________________________________________ [Jun 28,2003 10:29pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] what's wrong with the tank? .....ok just kidding. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 29,2003 9:17pm - kellthevalkyrie ""] i LOVE shitty bars! they *are* the most fun. safari lounge is my favorite...woooo! bill's bar in boston is a damn good time, too! |
| _________________________________ [Jun 30,2003 12:52am - xmikex ""] the safari lounge is a drum riser attached to a toilet. if you book a show there you are officially garbage (yes more garbage than jarrods) |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 30,2003 1:22am - DeOdiumMortis ""] I think I'll have my next birthday party there. |
| ______________________________________ [Jun 30,2003 8:10am - the_reverend ""] no chucky cheese, no me. |
| ______________________________ [Jun 30,2003 1:28pm - blue ""] note to self: book a show at the safari lounge. |
| ________________________________ [Jun 30,2003 1:51pm - xmikex ""] book another all day fest there. you'll fill the place up past it's 6 person capacity. |
| _________________________________________ [Jun 30,2003 7:49pm - kellthevalkyrie ""] oh, come on, you can get loaded for really cheap at the safari lounge! and that killer mural on the wall! and the fact that the pool table is next to the wall so you can't really play, i think every band should play there once so they know what a truely crappy venue is like. i don't know how many times i've said, "well, at least it's not the safari lounge..." it's so bad it's great! but then, that's just me. :spineyes: |
| _________________________________ [Jun 30,2003 11:56pm - xmikex ""] haha you know you've sunk low when you need the safari lounge factor to make something seem better. i spent about 15 min in that place and caugh 72 diseases. |
| ______________________________________ [Jul 1,2003 7:49am - joe/notcommon ""] o'brien's rules you can play golden tee while rocking out to whoever is playing BOSTONS' DEAD that month I got a high score during Raising Kubrick, those guys are good luck |
