you cant just go to a dive bar, play a gig for a $40.00 bar tab and expect that everyone in the place is going to remember you or care to, you have to work the crowd and give them a reason to like you, good music isnt enough. this event is really expensive, but if you attack it you might get a good number of fans out of it.

Are you trying to convince US, or yourself??? I respectfully disagree that you can't carve out your niche by playing dive bars and never doing these pay to play fests...I can think of many, many bands that have great followings who'd never play a chump fest like locobazooka, or any such nonsense. And great music IS enough; people will eventually take notice of you if you just keep doing your thing, and it's good. Lastly, in reference to your "get a good number of fans out of it" point, who the fuck wants locobazookians as "fans" in the first place??? I'd rather play to an O'Brien's full of fuckers with integrity than some soccer stadium full of retards. Yeesh...but good luck, may your ozzfest dreams come true!
