hey,
my band has been playing in london a bit recently, played bull and gate, hope and anchor, club fandango and somewhere else i've forgotten...anyway, the bills have been shit, loads of mismatched bands, divided crowds, etc... same old problems. Was wondering if there are any promoters/nights that put on out of town bands but manage to at least partially avoid the above problems? i think there is only so long we can rely on our (30ish) london turn out to keep getting gigs there, and we certainly wont be picking up any news fans at the sort of nights we've been playing. advice? cheers.
