molan Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 [quote name='chris_b' post='659204' date='Nov 19 2009, 01:42 PM']I used to play at the Cartoon in Croydon[/quote] I've played there as well - last time was to a mostly heavy goth crowd & we were playing '70's rock. We were headlining with an awful Goth outfit called 'Spit Like This' supporting. They were truly dreadful, turned up in a hearse and all seemed to have completely brand new gear, mostly BC Rich & Marshall stacks from what I remember. They genuinely couldn't play them to save their lives but they went down a storm and, astonishingly, 7-8 years later they are still going and have an album out! Anyway - we came on & it took about 2 songs to empty the goths out & we were playing to the bar staff & sound man who really liked us & helped us get some gigs at other venues!

JTUK Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Not good then... I normally trust my instinct for these things rather than a non-player, and even muso's can get it so wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geek99 Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 [quote name='EBS_freak' post='657959' date='Nov 18 2009, 11:45 AM']I used to play at a place called MFN at their infamous biker nights. Amongst some of the most fun gigs I have ever done. Never any trouble and the audience were genuinely appreciative of the music. Just ride the wave, you never know what opportunities will come from it![/quote] Scarily, I know exactly where MFN is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
