Going to see a band play a gig instore in a small record shop this afternoon, which makes me wonder why more bands do not do this kind of thing. Why not play gigs in the afternoons or at dinner (lunch for you southeners) times? Why do bands only ever play on an evening? The only other occasions I can think of for this kind of thing is HMV gigs. I'm sure bands like the Beatles and such played matinee shows, why and when did this kind of concert end? And why don't more bands play in record shops, as surely it will benefit both the band and the shop, if the band stay in the shop and sign their single or whatever it is they are 'promoting.' Anyway, I've just listened to four of the band's songs on MySpace and two of them are alright, especially Fermez La Bouche, which I'll be hoping they play.
And why are gigs wth girlfriends and mates rubbish? I want to either go with the lady, or with my mates. Why is it always wierd when they mix?
