post-christmas slump? new year joy?
We're well into 2010.....scary.
How have the bands faired after the hazy christmas is over?
Are you finding venues still as mad for it as ever?
Are the crowds down as people are skint?
We haven't gigged much in 2010, although we did just do a great one last Sat, infront of about 200+ people. Apart from that, we've been pretty lazy and need to get our act together. Saying that though, we're leaving March becuase we've got a big gig at the ACE centre on the 27th so we dont wanna cram too many gigs in, we need a good turn out.
It seems like we've been had with bad luck recently - We've had to turn a pub gig down due to personal un-avaliability (i.e - one of us is unavaliable) which we dont like doing and was offered a little mini festival slot which we couldnt do, again because of personal un-avaliability - the drummers in the states then so we dont have an excuse!
then the only date we could get into the studio in march, turns out theres something else on that day which rules me out.
its one of those sods law moments where we're avaliable for weeks and weeks, and then on a day we get offered something, we're not able to do it. We have 5 in the band, so thats 5 lives we have to work around.
thats a little rant over from me. not really getting down about it because we're booking gigs at the minute and theres talk of us going on the radio, our facebook page has just got 320 members so its all good.
so.....how's your 2010 shaping up??
