Back on topic, more or less, there's a venue near me where there is a stage. It is a restaurant. So I inquired of the young lady who manages the place.

She told me that an act has to be able to guarantee her that it will bring at least 40 people, customers, with it before she will book.

I told her that my band is what attracts customers to her venue, that she had it the other way around.

Of course, she sat there telling about the last two bands bringing in their 40 people each, turns out one band consists of four young lawyers and they brought their wives and employees to what turned out to be one of their TWO gigs per year.

I tried to remain polite, left the promo package and smiled, told her that if she ever wanted real entertainment to feel free to call.

Performing in local venues, the paradigm has changed. Not so much about the actual performance quality itself anymore.

Today, such is someone's hobby.

There are other venues to pursue.
