Where to begin..........last month a local musician called on me and my lead guitarist to help bail him out of an acoustic act gone bad by going on as a trio in a very small establishment.The owner enjoyed it so much we were booked for last night,July 14.The guy we helped out didn't show or call until 10pm.We were to go on at 9pm.Needless to say,the owner already had Mark and I packed up.The upside to this,EXIT 20,got booked for August.Downside for the guy who jerked us,well,we won't go into that!
This venue is EXIT 20's side job known as The Three Amigos...
So,I'm sure someone may have had this experience even with your own bandmate.Please share so I can fill my soul laughter before going to play tonight with a real band.....EXIT 20

Hey Mike,
Your short comment has given me what I needed to make it through this upcoming nights gig.Its the long distant musicians friend that can be more uplifting than your own bandmates.As I do with everyone,please check our website:www.exit20.altpro.net and you will see me behind my element.Thanks again Mike.

Don't let it get you down. A door was closed, but a window opened for you. Good luck!
