_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:00pm - pam ""] The sky bar closes mad early, the sound guys are pricks, the beer is expensive, and they only give metal shows Sundays because they know no one goes to shows on Sundays. The only good thing about that place is the Chinese food next door. |
_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:01pm - pam ""] RichHorror said:I back the comments of Mr. Green. You hate the Sky Bar, you said so the other day. |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:06pm - RichHorror ""] I just don't like only having Sundays to book there. I wasn't there at the infamous show where the sound guy was a prick. The sound guy I've dealt with is always awesome. Last time we trashed shit and threw the mic down hard on the stage and he didn't care, and in fact Anders said we can come back anytime because we were so great. My main gripe is the early closing time and the fact that people don't come out to it for heavy shows. I'm sure if Scott and others continue booking stuff there after I leave it'll slowly gain an audience. |
______________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:10pm - shatteredliz ""] The main problem I remember having with the Skybar is the lack of a nearby T stop... I never went to O'Brien's. |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:10pm - Sinistas ""] I've booked Friday and Saturday shows there. Anders set up Sunday specifically for metal shows, but I'm sure she'd be willing to go for other days too. I'm hoping to book more stuff, since every show I've had so far has been decent (even Sunday with the monsoon), but I'll be pissed if this sort of attitude about the place kills attendance. |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:11pm - RichHorror ""] Yeah, fuck that place. |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:11pm - Sinistas ""] Agreed on the location Liz, that's my main problem with it. Porter's within walking distance, but it's a pain in the ass. |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:12pm - RichHorror ""] RichHorror said:Yeah, fuck that place. That was in reference to Liz. Not the Skybar. I'm psyched when people bring up personal conversations that can fuck up a professional relationship I have with a venue. Awesome! |
_________________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:12pm - iren_the_viking ""] ya porter isnt that bad, but theres a bus that runs right past porter to the skybar |
_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:13pm - pam ""] Nicer weather tends to boost attendance a bit. |
______________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:13pm - shatteredliz ""] But hey, at this point, any venue in Boston booking metal is good in my book! |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:15pm - Sinistas ""] Rich, drop me a line (sinistas at gmail), have something I want to run by you. |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:18pm - RichHorror ""] Yeah, I had a question for you as well. E-mail sent. |
_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:21pm - pam ""] Def. Liz, I'd certainly rather have a shitty bar than no bar at all. But I'm less inclined to make the long ass fucking drive to pay 4 or 5 bucks for shitty flat draft, seven or eight bucks at the door, get tossed out at 11pm, and be dead tired in class the next morning because sunday shows are gay. I'll do it occasionally because I like going to shows and there have been some great line ups there...but I'm sick of getting shit and hearing whining about "the scene" sucking because people don't go to these shows. |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:28pm - RichHorror ""] This show is 100% cancelled. Brian's meeting with Carl and Matt tonight. SHit will get figured out. I'll let everyone know what the definite deal is when I hear. |
___________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:38pm - dreadkill ""] dammit. i wanted ot go to this show. |

But I'm less inclined to make the long ass fucking drive to pay 4 or 5 bucks for shitty flat draft i paid $2 for pibbers draft the other night at the show. pibbers is always in stock on sundees. |
_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:40pm - pam ""] Sucks. I was looking forward to this. |

They've been out of those every time I've gone there. Maybe they're finally learning. |
___________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:42pm - dreadkill ""] pibbers for pam |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:55pm - RichHorror ""] Yeah, PBR has been non-stop at the Skybar everytime I've been there. Also, go to the Bullfinch Yacht Club for RAOV and Deadlikedeath on this night instead. |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 2:58pm - Sinistas ""] I'll keep all these complaints about the Skybar in mind when they stop having shows due to shitty turnout and then everybody complains about no place to have shows. |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:00pm - Sinistas ""] Not to say that there's been shitty turnout at my shows, the bands all got paid at each of them, but I'm sure that will change with the way things are going. |
____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:01pm - RichHorror ""] Vaderbomb these faggots, Scott. |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:03pm - Sinistas ""] Nobody will survive if that happens. |

____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:08pm - RichHorror ""] Yeah, come on down Ken. I think after we're going to a jamspace and chillin' and grillin'. |
_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:09pm - pam ""] Yeah, if the Sky Bar stops having shows it will be totally my fault, because ya know...if I don't like a place, surely no one will attend. I still go to your goddamn shows when I can, so cram it or I will so fucking fight you. Rich- Where in the fuck is that, and how did you convince a yacht club to even allow you IN it? |
___________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:10pm - dreadkill ""] RichHorror said:Yeah, come on down Ken. I think after we're going to a jamspace and chillin' and grillin'. you had me at grillin'. |
__________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:11pm - Sinistas ""] I'm not giving you shit for not coming out to my shows, and I'm not making a statement about the "scene", I'm just trying to help out by booking good bills. Anybody that's got a problem with that can book their own. You're doing your part with the Dee Dee's shows, so no problem there. |

_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:13pm - pam ""] I know. I should be killed. |

I can get in because I'm not a poor piece of shit like you. Everyone has a price. It's at 234 Friend Street. More or less in North Station, next to the TD Bank North Garden. |
_____________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:14pm - pam ""] I'll see if I can convince Jon to go. What time? |

____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 3:16pm - RichHorror ""] Doors are at 8. Someone should pick me up and drive me because I'm too wealthy to drive myself anywhere. |

____________________________________ [Apr 18,2007 5:30pm - RichHorror ""] I guess Total Fucking Destruction are in fact on that RAOV/Deadlikedeath show now as well. |

___________________________________ [Apr 19,2007 9:08am - dreadkill ""] that's true. i just spill beer on suits so businessmen will get fired from their jobs. |
_____________________________________ [Apr 19,2007 12:01pm - MOnkeyman ""] where is this show happening? |
_____________________________________ [Apr 19,2007 12:05pm - RichHorror ""] Nowhere. I guess when O'Briens opens up they'll do a makeup date. |
