Re: Just say no to band battles, pay to play, & pre-sale tic

Again, to reiterate, I don't agree with this business model and if a band does in fact sell the tickets that they agree to sell to be part of this type of show, pay to play would be a misnomer. I did see the Zac Brown band do the national anthem before the game earlier today, they sounded pretty good.

Re: Just say no to band battles, pay to play, & pre-sale tic

That was a true statement. Currently, we are involved with one show that would fit the "pay to play bill" If Zac Brown or someone related to him asked us to play a show. Yes, we would accept. No, we would not consider selling tickets to play with Zac Brown. I am unable to think of one Zac ...

Re: Just say no to band battles, pay to play, & pre-sale tic

Ok, I saw this awhile back. I have plenty of experience in this area. I have set up shows for local, regional, and world touring bands. I have never made a band pay to play. I have always worked out the pay situation prior to a band agreeing to be on one of my shows, even if this means bands knowing...

Re: Deicide at the Vaudevile Mews this coming Thursday eveni

I agree with with this sentiment. For a local/regional band there is plenty to bitch about. I suppose my positivity was coming from the perspective of a fan of heavy metal.

Re: Deicide at the Vaudevile Mews this coming Thursday eveni

There were only two things that I was really pointing out....... 1) Des Moines has recently hosted a number of both legendary and up and coming bands. This can be said for multiple genre's, but I know for fact in the realm of metal....because I attended these shows personally! 2) I think pretty much...

Re: Morbid Angel,dark funeral, Grave

1st of all the Des Moines band Agrinex opened up the show. To see Agrinex get to be part of a Dark Funeral gig was pretty cool. I thought Morbid Angel was good. Morbid Angel made the show worth the ticket price. It was killer to see Trey Azagthoth shred again. ( I got to see him in Cedar Rapids when...
