ANother Weekend Another Gig

Its at our old friends from Alpha Garden centres new digs.. near enfield I think...

This is an outdoor gig and in my experience in this field (golly.. five years odd in various cover bands) I have found there to be a certain amount of "suckitude" sometimes in these shows that basically can act as an irritant to people who just wanted to come and buy some plants. Little audience response leads to low band energy and "whoops" it's all over the place. A pitfall a certain amount of banter can avoid if you're in a good social place with the others in the group.

On the other hand, it is possible sometimes to get great things out of these situations and amongst them are new leads, gigs and even (shhh!) fans of the band. A large selection of CDs and promos will come in handy always at this sort of thing, as will a willing frontman who'll plug us to his hearts content. Guess that'll be me this time. Again...

Heh, I love the attention, really.

Rock on, Algolians!
