Musician Forum - Band Discussion Board - BandMix

As someone told me last night - when booking shows in December, get the word out early as there are always a ton of things people are planning - Christmas parties, tree-cutting, etc etc.

Drink a beer for me.

I"ll have one tonight for you, but when I'm gigging, I don't drink. This is a 'bring your own refreshment' place, anyway. Last year I did a feature at an open mic as my CD Release, and it was way too noisy. This place, at least people will be there to listen.
They're fairly new (opened the beginning of last summer), but they're struggling to get people in, with open mics, jams, acoustic shows, and non-music stuff too.

Trying to figure out how to keep people interested for 2 hours! I'll switch instruments - 6- and 12-string acoustics, electric guitar for a couple of songs and baritone uke for a couple. Gonna try and get the place's host to play a few songs with me on fiddle, too.

Good luck sounds like lots of fun. You could do a Facebook live video?

Right on, Mikey!!!

My TMobile 4G time runs out in a couple of days at the beginning of each month, never even tried to up-stream video. Besides, that would encourage people to be lazy and not come out!

I want to see the show but I am not driving 1,490.7 miles unless you agree to marry my first born.
