Deal with reputable businesses that know and do their part & be a reputable business and do your part and you should succeed. Buying into the "oh the poor poor venue owner has no way to advertise his business in a cost effective manner" is just hog wash in my experience.
I do truly wish you the best of luck though.![]()
Thanks!!!
FWIW, I do truly feel that this weekends venue is trying to do these things right, which is why we like working with them. Other places we have and are booked to play, eh.
