I suspect gigs might be a little thinner on the ground out here in the sticks. That notwithstanding, it's not for want of trying that we are unable to find suitable dates, although it doesn't help when one of your band members is at-risk themselves and another has a wife who is. We haven't just been sitting on our thumbs waiting for them to drift in -- our gig-getting members are experienced enough in this lark to know how to go about working with suitable venues. They just aren't there.
