[QUOTE="Joe/NotCommon:113861"]That is exactly what has happened with the Palladium, Boston gave up on metal either through lack of interest from booking agents, or clubs closing their doors. The palladium cornered the market and now all the tours go there, of any real magnitude. However, this has left Boston ripe for the picking, nobody was doing anything which is why a few small local scenes were able to form so quickly. It can only get bigger, I've landed some smaller tours, Misery Index, Dysrythmia, Bongzilla, and if it keeps picking up then I can probably start to get some bigger ones and eventual start competing with the Palladium upstairs maybe. They are really out of touch with what's happening, because they don't have to deal with the lower levels of the 'scene'. If the club Anne dreams of actually happens, whoever runs it probably won't face the same fate as the Palladium, because if it only holds about 300 you aren't going to get Nile or In Flames to play there, but can land some awesome mid-sized bands (Goatwhore, Exhumed). A club like that would have to still be involved in the local scene, because there aren't 7 tours a week that are worth booking, especially if whoever is booking there is interested in quality bands based on their own tastes. If it was all ages, there are definately local bands who could stand to gain pretty quickly. Kevorkian's Angels, for example, plays mostly 21+ shows but people under 21 have definately heard of them and would see them if they had a chance to do so 9in my opinion), plus the managment/booking agent, if smart, would work so that a base can be built upon. If band A plays and doesn't draw alot the first time, but is really good and working hard, then he/she should book them again and again over time because fans will follow.[/QUOTE]
