Why would we say that if we're not going to get to see them, because
they're booking fees are too high to get booked in our cities?
Makes no sense. There are plenty of artists who are have more reasonable
fees that do some to these cities, and i give them the mad props.
I've seen plenty of artists who've come from europe and are still about
the DIY enough to stop in smaller cities.
That aside though: I understand the costs related to coming from the UK, etc
are high,
i'd never slight somebody for doing what they need to break even, or even
make
a living. Not to mention the fact that alot of this music just isn't that
popular over here
to be able to book decent shows everywhere.
But I look at it like, if you're over here, why not do more dates rather
than less?
