Snailhook, you would have lost money on this one, but the sound at the VL would have been amazing.
Stars of the Lid/Christopher Willits/Hammock Roll Call!
was not feeling Christopher Willits at all. Uggggh.
was it sold out? I fell asleep listening to Nick Drake's Fruit Tree box set… :)
On that note, what's the deal with Rob, is he no longer there? He's working sound around town now? Did the new owners can him?rob is no longer at the velvet lounge, as of two months ago. he is now employed at the rock n roll hotel. he left us, we did not can him.
"Ok team…let's do it; let's play this garage."that's pretty fucking pretentious. if they thought iota was a garage, i wonder what they would have thought of the velvet.
Snailhook, you would have lost money on this one, but the sound at the VL would have been amazing.that's what i thought. we would've needed 140 paid to cover that guarantee, and there's no way that would've happened. i wish i could have seen the show, but that's the way it goes. sudden infant was pretty damn good, though we didn't have much attendance (about 20).
