Re: If I book the Meatmen.....
i'm down. i'll post on the 319 board & see if i can gain some more interest.
Re: If I book the Meatmen.....
I missed them the last time they played Des Moines in 87, it would be the day after I get back from FLA, so yeah I'd be there. I just wonder how many of the younger people know who they are and just how pig fucking cool it would be to see them.
I paid my dues but I lost my Receipt.

Re: If I book the Meatmen.....
I'm working on a venue, and yes, if it happens, it'll be June 19th. Keep in mind that this is still pending.
Re: If I book the Meatmen.....

dumb question...have these guys been active this whole time, or is this one of them-there reunion tours? i saw them at the pioneer columbus center way too long ago, and it was pretty dang sweet.
either way...i'm there (mateo?)

Re: If I book the Meatmen.....
I think it was 87. My first show ever. They had a neon light that flashed "just say maybe" and tesco vee kept thumping people on the head with a giant rubber dong.
So while I'm a bit scarred from the experience, I'd still pay to check it out again.

They wouldn't budge on their absolutely ridiculous guarantee, so no Meatmen.

3000 dollars, plus a percentage of the total door bag ( I was scared to even ask what percent, like 3 grand ain't enough). 3 hotel rooms, booze, food (not pizza), and a bunch of other random shit that noone really needs. They're more of a pain in the ass than OTEP was.
Re: If I book the Meatmen.....
Yeah you would have needed like 300 people to break even. I'm sure it would have been 90% after cost. You may have been able to take a small promoter's fee but would have in the long run been fucked.Joey Chaos wrote:3000 dollars, plus a percentage of the total door bag ( I was scared to even ask what percent, like 3 grand ain't enough). 3 hotel rooms, booze, food (not pizza), and a bunch of other random shit that noone really needs.

I have to say it would have been a cool show. I had heard a while back that they were doing reunion shows around Detroit but I just can't see that much interest outside of the major cities.
