Gigs

Hi guys, in answer to the disappearing venues article.  Yes its getting bad around Staffordshire as well, rising beer prices, and no smoking seems to be the main reasons, and yes i agree, open mic/jam nights are not helping.  Landlords are getting free music, not good. Back in the 70's/80's we used to get a couple of bands, hire a venue and do our own gigs, why not do that again??. There are loads of places that offer room hire.  What about a "Grey Rock" tour, get 3 bands to travel around doing these self booked gigs.
