Type of MUSIC!!!

Post by BigJohn »

I have only one time in fourteen years of bands stopped a band from playing, Is that a good thing or a bad thing ? I have heard alot of people don't come here because they dont know the type or quality of the bands that are going to be here. Maybe I should only book the cool cover bands that have a big following instead of giving everyone a shake like I have always done. This would over time definatley increase the door money you all play for. I have found that there is little loyalty amoung muscians (except for a few true blue Friends Felix, Bobby, Jeff and the Iceman just to name a few). Some of you guys I have taken into my home, and now I can't even get a return phone call, Even though are numbers are on an up swing latley, I would like to make Peter C's the place it once was, but I can't do it without some help and support from you guy's
CALL ME OR STOP IN MY OFFICE IS ALWAYS OPEN !!!

Hey John, we have tried numerous times to contact you by email. We also sent you out a press kit a few weeks ago. SeVeR would be interested in playing at Peter C's.

Amen to that John, some musicians look down there noses at you like your asking them for $1,000,000 dollars when you ask them to jam or maybe get something together and they are not even in a band at that point and crying to jam.

I've had my share of it .......Whats up with that????

Dude, (John)

I haven't played at your place for what seems like a very long time. But, I am really looking forward to jammin there tomorrow night (2-26). And all I can ask is that (if we fuck up a tune) - grin and bear it - we'll get the next one right!!!! I Promise!!!

Seriously - things are tough all over.

Loyalty???? What the fuck is that?? Is there such a thing these days?!?

I'll be the first to tell you that there are things about your place that needs improvements (and we can talk about that on Saturday if you want), but I think the bottom line these days is the lack of people wanting to hear live music, the BULLSHIT ANTI-CONSTITUTIONAL roadblocks, and the PLCB.

I would like to see Peter C's go back to being a meca for live music. I would love it!!! That would be great for all of the talented musicians in this area!!!!!

Okay, soooo I've been drinking for about 8 hours - I'll shut up now!!

G'Nite!!

I couldn't have said it better Bobby
Kudo's to The Canes, it's what be a band is all about playing solid,
and most importantly haveing fun.
If you don't have fun playing in a band GO HOME......

John keep up the good work and don't give up on original bands, "it's the
corner stone of music".

Don't become a lemming John. That's a highpoint about your bar: The fact you give all types of music a chance when other bars will just slam their doors in your face.
