Now Peanuts are returning the favor.
And there are not nearly as many venues available. The music biz in this town has just about dried up and gone away.
Aye, the days of playing paying gigs are rapidly coming to a close. And that was even before the Coof. People will just as easy go see a band as they will go to a club and dance to a DJ playing his playlist. And he's a lot cheaper then hiring a band. I've seen that happen even to singer songwriters, getting replaced by a DJ. Don't bother to come, DJ is doing fine as is. You gotta youtube, or twitch, or whatever, I can no longer keep up, That's where your audience is these days.We tell people our band plays for free, but we charge for moving our gear. We're all old and have real jobs (or are retired). I had a lot of fun in my 20s when I made my sole living with a guitar, but I'm glad I don't play to pay the rent anymore. The local venues here pay less per night now than they did in the '80s. (And there are not nearly as many venues available. The music biz in this town has just about dried up and gone away.)
Isn’t that the truth schleping all the amps and guitars and sound system. Makes my back hurt thinking about it
