Placement of bands on a bill - local vs. touring[views:3937][posts:40][poll! to vote:click here] to view:click here] ___________________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 10:27am - BestialOnslaught ""] Ok, I have a bit of a dilemma for the SUPERCHRIST show on March 15th. I want SUPERCHRIST to headline, because I am assuming a handful of people will come over from the RIISTETYT show and I'd rather them see a short bit of KEVORKIAN'S ANGELS and the whole SUPERCHRIST set, rather than the other way around. Bassist/vocalist Chris Black is pretty set against closing though, as he thinks everyone who came out to support the local bands will take off before they play. I think this is possible, but exaggerated. Obviously this poll doesn't apply to touring bands who already have a solid draw, but rather new bands looking to get exposed to the Boston area crowds... Where should such a touring band be placed on the bill? |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 10:28am - Joe/NotCommon ""] depends on the bands they play with, i think alot of the KA/Hirudinea crowd will stick around for SuperChrist. on other shows, i'd definately have the touring band not headline though. |
| ______________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 10:29am - RustedAngel ""] everyone needs to vote for me because I'm not gay. We all know how much everyone here hates fags. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 10:47am - opinion ""] touring bands dont headline unless they are beyond huge. for example. if any of thes bands that post here were to tour, they should be placed closer to the beginning of the bill, for they are not well known. |
| _______________________________ [Feb 16,2005 10:51am - blue ""] i agree with joe for this show, alex. the majority of the people coming out for kevorkians and hirudinea will stick around for them. but if theyre still iffy about going last, might as well make them happy. |
| ________________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 11:00am - armageddonday ""] We only have the touring band headline. But again we only book touring bands. The only time it fucked up was for the Fall OF The Bastards/Nefarious show. If you put Superchrist last I will make it after Riistetyt to see them, but as I said I'm not missing Riistetyt unless they really suck but I already know they don't. I agree with Joe about the crowd that would be at this show, they won't leave and if they do we all know who they are so we can always kick their ass, I'm hired. |

| __________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 1:31pm - SuperFly ""] who would headline if not them, KA? |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 1:34pm - BestialOnslaught ""] Well, I suppose I have several options: SUPERCHRIST KA CSDO HIRUDINEA KA SUPERCHRIST CSDO HIRUDINEA CSDO SUPERCHRIST KA HIRUDINEA |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 1:36pm - RustedAngel ""] HAHAH CSDO, S1CK D00d!!!!!!!!! You should put csdo on last, so you can watch them by yourself. |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 16,2005 1:36pm - BestialOnslaught ""] blue said: but if theyre still iffy about going last, might as well make them happy. My only prob with that, like I said, is that I expect some people to come in from down the street, and as happy as I'd be for new people to catch KA or CSDO, I'm obviously pushing SUPERCHRIST... |

I emailed both people at Regeneration Records, the dude told me that show was starting at 9, the chick said 8 and will be out by 11. I hope she's correct, cause even if SC plays 2nd to last, it'd probably be like 11 to 11:45. |

| __________________________________ [Feb 17,2005 2:47pm - succubus ""] i have a question, if you list a band on top, does that mean they are first or last? |
| __________________________________ [Feb 17,2005 4:03pm - SuperFly ""] OPTION 3, for my own selfish reasons. |

| ___________________________________ [Feb 17,2005 10:21pm - succubus ""] ok option 3 for me too (and i'd stay to take pics of all the bands) |
| ___________________________________________ [Feb 17,2005 10:47pm - BestialOnslaught ""] Haha I actually was just thinking that option 3 is pretty much out... Sorry people. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 17,2005 11:49pm - BornSoVile ""] make Hirudenia headline! |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 18,2005 1:18am - RustedAngel ""] BestialOnslaught said:Haha I actually was just thinking that option 3 is pretty much out... Sorry people. csdo will probably DEMAND to NOT play last. I'd say if you can't put them last, put them first. |
| _____________________________________ [Feb 18,2005 1:19am - RustedAngel ""] it's tough, being the champ. |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 18,2005 2:57pm - BestialOnslaught ""] I initially asked Eric if they'd play 2nd, he agreed and that's what it's gonna be. He's a very agreeable guy. |

He's a very agreeable guy. no he's not at all...ask him if they'll play last. I garuantee he'll say no. At the halloween show we asked them for the sake of the 2 bands that drove from CT if CSDO would play last and he refused after being asked a bunch of times. They weren't even asked to play the show by the person who booked it. Serge just automatically put them on the show. |
| __________________________________________ [Feb 21,2005 1:35pm - BestialOnslaught ""] Anyone got any opinions on (last to first): HIRUDINEA SUPERCHRIST KEVORKIAN'S ANGELS CSDO ? |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 22,2005 8:59am - Joe/NotCommon ""] well to make sure SuperChrist gets their full set in, maybe you should have them play third and have someone else headline. Hirudinea takes along time to set up and break down, and Kevorkian's Angels often plays longer then they are suppose to, so you don't want to wind up with less time for SuperChrist at the end of the night. |
| ___________________________________ [Feb 22,2005 9:46am - pessimist ""] just don't make hirudinea open |
| _______________________________________ [Feb 22,2005 9:54am - Joe/NotCommon ""] have Mike Hirudinea and Mark Kevorkian flip a coin, winner headlines, loser opens. |
