Joe: I'm sorry you've had such a bad experience with all ages shows. I'm very lucky to be friends with the hoss kids, but like all diy venues that place isn't going to last forever and I've been scrambling to find more places for shows (for the record the hoss is waaay harder to book then the all asia). Basements aside, anyone can rent a vfw hall, and once you do that its all a matter of bookings bands that people are going to come see. I book bands that I like, but I'm not going to book a show that no one will come to. If people aren't coming to your all ages shows then your prolly just booking bands that younger kids arent really into. I don't think thats your fault, or kids faults, but dont give up on these shows. I am pretty much appalled by %90 of what you post on this board, but I'm glad someone is booking metal bands in boston.

I don't doubt the HOSS is harder to book then the All Asia, that place is the easiest place to do a show at. But all HOSS shows I hear about are ones you have put on.
I've been there and done the hall show route and it was too hit or miss for the amount of money that would be involved for the PA, bands, the hall and possible detail cops.
I could tell by being at the HOSS that it's a cool place to be for alot of those kids who were there. Obviously they like the shows you are doing too, but it's definately a little scene there. It's awesome you have been able to tap into something like that. Maybe the All Asia isn't cool enough or something, I really don't know. Maybe it's that the kids haven't got into the bands I book, which I am sure has alot to do with some of the All Asia shows I had.
I could sit here and debate marketing with you, but that idiot AttendmyRequiem will continue to post foolish, dim-witted things so I don't really want to continue in this thread because he just can't understand anything as simple and obvious as they may be.

If you want to continue a discussion Jonah, feel free to email me because I'd like your impression on a few things actually.
