I need bands for Saterday, June 24th
Last show I booked had IDN, Dour Cursvia, The Departed, Au Pair, And ATNFAC play.
I need recomendations for a couple bands to play the show that will draw in Brockton.
The last show was awsome, but we didn't break even with the club, so we need to rake in some more people at the next show.
Any suggestions?

that show was cool, i had a good time.

I suggest to book a band from the new bedford area and a start so pam, george, etc will come up. they need lke 60 people paid to break even.
[May 28,2006 6:51pm - niccolai ""]
Typically, when I book metal bands at Romans, the turnout is low because there isn't much of a metal community in brockton, so the only people that really show up are people that the bands bring with them.
That means any band I book is going to haveto bring as many friends and promote the show as much as they possibly can.
If any band thinks they are up to that, get ahold of me.
The turnout needs to be about 60 people to break even with the club, and if the turnout is short it reflects poorly on me, and it hurts the chances of future metal shows at Romans.

notcommon bands = $$$$$

Not Common bands won't be able to handle playing with my metalcore band, Joe.

[May 28,2006 11:07pm - Joshtruction ""]
IDN would most likely be down for playing there again.
[May 28,2006 11:22pm - niccolai ""]
IDN is always welcome.
[May 29,2006 12:28am - jakeman ""]

[May 30,2006 1:26pm - xmikex ""]
betrayed by all. not exactly a metal, or even what's considered "metal core" but we're too metal for all the new nurler twostep kids.
[May 30,2006 1:28pm - xmikex ""]
local opening band, War On Our Shores, Betrayed By All, IDN, Rohis, whoever the big metalcore band is now. there's your show.

[May 30,2006 2:17pm - hungtableed ""]
Burn My Remains needs shows. We recorded a 7 song-er, minus vocals, and should have it all together real soon and are looking to play as much as possible.
[May 30,2006 4:19pm - Blue ""]

[May 30,2006 4:43pm - Hooker nli ""]
Random Acts of Violence is interested.
[May 30,2006 5:38pm - Paulll ""]

we just didn't do them yet. I believe they'll be on this weekend, then probably we will have to get it mixed and whatnot the following weekend.

Yes, Roman's is the Tigers Den.
And yes it's all ages in the sense that they don't card anyone, but no 14 year olds please, unless they are going to give me and Nick handjobs.
[May 30,2006 11:04pm - SeedBassist ""]
If you guy need a band, we'll play....just let me know

i think most would be scum bag graduating seniors. although i make no promises, i hear 14 year olds give good head.:moe:
[May 31,2006 10:09am - xmikex ""]
one time my friend's band played out in detroit. i knew this girl from detroit who figured i knew them and she went on and on to me about how nice they were, and what a sweet kid my friend was. I saw the kid the next day at a show in Brockton and said "hey, I heard you guys did pretty well in Detroit." He said to me "Fuck yeah. I got head from a 14 year old girl."
[May 31,2006 10:12am - anonymous ""]
hahahahahahaahahaaaahahaha
[Jun 2,2006 12:52am - niccolai ""]
Bump.
We need another band on this bill.
If your band can literally bring ten kids with them (at least) to ensure our turnout is in the 60s, I will add you to the bill.
Warning - must be able to tolerate playing with metalcore bands.

if you're avoiding volatile because they're not metalcore, my testimonial is that they played with my band when we were even more metalcore than we are now and they certainly seemed to "tolerate" playing with us. They also put on an awesome show and I believe took a request to play some old Slayer. How can you go wrong?
[Jun 2,2006 3:31pm - niccolai ""]
Nah, I'm not avoiding them, but I don't think they will draw in the brockton area which unfortunately is the case with alot of the bands that responded to this.
If any of these bands can promise me to physically bring at least 10-15 kids with them to ensure more metal shows at Roman's in the future, then I will feel more comfortable adding them to the bill.
I like alot of bands that have been messaging me to play there, but unfortunately I haveto keep the turnout higher on the priority list then who I think necessarily would be fun to play with, you know?
