Live music venue rumours?

LOLZ!! omG guyz

umm because I am using colloquialisms/and silliness to get my points across.

Now shut fck up and sit the fck down! 🙂

Lowest common denominator, Stung – I was wailed on for being a grammar nazi, so I thought “if you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.”

But the next person to write “slammed on the breaks” is going to get a stern fist-shaking-at. Grr!

closeded, canbsy, intarwebs … why is it acceptable to talk like a retard online these days?

Let me also dead the following terms while I’m at it:

I thought the reason the Greenroom was struggling was because they hiked up the drink prices, therefore loosing the area’s only customer base – students.

If I want to go to a bar to see a band and pay handsomely for drinks, I’ll go to the Basement. Folk are much friendlier up there anyway.

I hope you were joking about the interweb band thing, Diane. I hope.

Look Thumper, double spacing.

Double 🙂

Bass players have the musical equivalent of short man syndrome. (Comes from being a failed guitarist)

no one wants to get stuck watching drummers… its all about ze bass!!

Don’t the drummers strong arms turn you on ?

I don’t want to get stuck watching a drummer though.

Hey, if two people can play Guitar Hero III over the intarwebs together, I don’t see why your idea can’t work. 😉

I don’t think o’shea’s has closeded. I too agree uc lacks a bit of the atmos that philip did. but pretty convenient nonetheless being in los belcos.

I would like to see a chain venue open up… my vision is a little like this. You have venues of the same name all across canbsy. But no matter which one of the venues you go to… you see the same gig? How I hear you ask.. Well one member of the band is situated at each venue to play their instrument. using super quick interweb technology the players are all playing with each other but by internet streaming and huge screens.. then everyone else’s stream is fed across all the other venues..

Now you may say that this idea is crazy, unrealistic and mostly unattainable – and you are completely correct BUT you have to look at the advantages – so that we as people can make this happen.

Pros – Ego in bands becomes a thing of the past because each member gets their own stage, people not attending shows because it is on the wrong side of town is an excuse of the past.

Cons – despite the high quality internet connections available to us I don’t believe that it could be performed without some kind of latency issues.

Now this con can be overcome once we can enhance teleportation technology thus making internet connetion speeds instantaneous.

Thanks I will be here all week.

I heard this week that O’Sheas had closed down?

I saw Angus & Julia Stone at Greenroom@UC which was a sold-out gig. UC had only put on about 3 bar staff.

So I am happy to confirm that UC bar sucks!
