OOPS. I WASN'T S'POSED TO DO THAT.

OOOPPSSS...

lol. nope. no story time. it's kinda boring. just made me giggle.

but the company that got all passive agressive bullying when we politely declined was called Afton Booking Mangement. noooooo thank you.

some BULLSHIT. a booking agent? that gets us better shows than we could for ourselves so they take a cut of the more money we would have made? GOOD. EARN THAT PAPER. middle manning fuckers that add nothing of value. music industry is already full of that at every level. don't need to sign up for more.

grrrrrr. ANGRY.

Plenty of the same types here in Oz too.

I wouldn't feel so bad about politely responding to the passive aggressive emails. They are probably cut and paste emails to dozens of bands telling them to fuck off every week.

There are some absolute scumbags called Emergenza here in Australia running (band funded) competitions. A great and very well known band got their spam and responded very well -

lol. NICE.

yeah. as much fun as it is to tell idiots they're being idiotic and you're not a punk that falls for stuff like that, i always keep correspondence polite as long as i can. you never know when that stuff can come back on you.

"... we need help losing money. we've doing the fine for years on our own." PERRRRRRFECT.

I am constantly amazed by those who can't understand a simple 'no thanks, not interested', especially when your money is involved somehow.

As for the 5er. I never really needed my 5string much for the first 10 years I had it. It just lacked clarity, punch, and definition. It was cool to tune it to D so that I didn't have to change mid set....or for a long droney note. But I couldn't play any actual licks on it.

Then I got a fEARful cab and the Glockenklang Blue Soul head. My fucking B string has all the clarity, punch, and definition the other four do. Totally changed everything.


And we don't really do "pay to play" down here. The bands just split the draw. Which is usually shit and all goes to visiting bands for gas because we're nice like that. Losers' Reunion was getting into the big place to play down here pretty regularly which paid $750.......the place would be PACKED.....but it was a strange crowd. All drinking. No one looking at you. The choices down here are play for no money to 20 people who pay close attention to you or (when you "make it locally") play to 150 who when leaving will say "there was a band there?"

And I would bet money that that response Behnder's Paulie got was a mass copy and text thing that douchecanoe sends to anyone who turns them down. Whether it applies or not.

[behndy]

yahpers. yahpers to all that.

now. off to try to put together a decent demo of the Possessessessed. because it fucking KILLS.

i have an idea for a custom version i'd love dood to tackle for me. i can get The Mayu to ask him about it, 'cause of the Japanese English barrier, but that means letting her in on pricing for things i buy.

it's a dilemma.
