My band has just had a very weird message come into our inbox. Well, I say weird but the message is perfectly normal in it's content. It's from the sound man for a gig we're booked for on Sunday asking us what we need etc. The weird thing is we are quite unaware of any gig we have booked on said date.
Most bizarre.
So after looking into it I notice that the promoter has booked us before at the same venue but the gig was then cancelled due to the venue shutting down. However, the venue was recently reopened and the gigs rebooked. The only thing is they seem to have forgotten to tell some of the bands (e.g. us) that this has happened. Talk about your epic fails.
Here's an excerpt from their blog:
"All bands that have been booked will still be playing, only on different dates.
If you have not been contacted about your new date listing then we apologize fully and ask that you just fling a message our way."
If we were not contacted then how the bloody hell were we meant to know to "fling" them a message
