Can anyone here give me an example, whether yourself or a famous example, of a band who reached a moderate, but ultimately not sustainable, level of success in one town/scene, then relocated to another area and achieved sustainable success?
I suppose one example would be the Beatles, having established themselves in Hamburg before returning to Liverpool and then on to the world, and I know touring bands do this often, but I'm trying to think of bands who've successfully moved their base of operations before the tipping point and ultimately went on to achieve a significant level of fame or success.
I ask because my band, after developing a reasonable following in Pittsburgh, PA, recently relocated to the Seattle/Tacoma area and are now sort of starting from square one.
