Really if a band is that good, some one will eventually put them on a bill and not ask them to pay. Just get good in the mean time.

Stop funding promoters and venues that want to rip you off. If you want your friends to hear you, invite them down to the studio.

AVX_Dave is an unknown quantity at this point
No , there are no tickets. Its not pay to play. Money is taken at the door. All this was us asking a favour. Chip in for the PA and flyers and get a share of the door money. Don't chip in, no share.

We are meeting later about this situation. Downie, in the future please think before posting on UGS. There is a lot of dicks and you've managed to fuck us right up. Cheers.

I'm not in cahoots, but I am a firm believer in reserving judgement until you've actually heard a band play. I know the band and I know that they do have talent as individuals. As for the band, not heard them together but have heard good things!
