    Default Would you hire this band?

    I am curious and it is hard to get really honest feedback from most people in person or that you know personally so I ask you, If you owned an establishment or ran a park summer concert series, campground, etc, would you hire this band? Please be honest, and let me know any issues you hear and why you would or would not. I have my own opinions but will wait to share them.

    I think it sounds pretty good. The lead vocals could be stronger but at least he's good with the crowd. I agree with Rick that the age of the band could be keeping you out of certain venues but the only way to fix that is to vary the age of the members.

    If I were a club owner, the crowd engagement would be important to me (alcohol sales!)and you guys have that so it's a big feather in your cap! I've worked with dynamite singers who had the vocal expertise and chops but were dead on a log regarding relating to the audience so that's a big plus as far as I'm concerned.

    Thanks guys, we actually just lost our Bass player, he had a heart attack and drove off the road. Pretty horrible, I drove right past the accident about an hour after it happened and saw all the fire trucks and ambulances and thought dang someone hit some black Ice and went off into the trees. He lives arond the corner from me and when I went by his house to get to mine I saw 3 cop cars outside his house and my heart sank. His wife is devastated.

    So sorry to hear the news about your bassist.

    Had that happen to a keyboardist I was in a band with years ago.

    Lost my best friend and our bass player in 1991. He took good care of himself with exercise, food, 1-2 beers a week. I, on the other hand, lived on Burger King, pizza, beer and 2 packs of smokes a day and I'm still here.

    He was 40. Go freakin' figure.
