To be fair, there are 'some' small local events that do better than what you see on that flyer however they are extremely few and very far between.
For the most part though, Frank hit it dead on. At least here in the New England area, local events seem to have musicaly gotten stuck in 2000 and never managed to break free. Promoters tend to book the "known quantities" to be sure that they bring in some numbers. Most people here only know (and show up to hear) the acts that they've already been exposed to. This is one of the main reasons why I'm glad that there are a couple of us doing regular college shows in the area. Promoters generally won't bring "unknown" acts to this area. So, if you can't bring Mohammad to the mountain bring the mountain to Mohammad... -ant- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Matt Kane's Brain Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 4:20 PM To: Guilherme Menegon Arantes Cc: Klaas-Jan Jongsma; Carlos De Brito; Frank Glazer; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 313@hyperreal.org Subject: Re: (313) Movement has competition...
