Why Play Bad Venues?

[lax4bags]

My bham bro. Ever played the green lantern or is it green tavern? I’m McCalla? It’s a biker bar I’m told. Anyway I turned down a gig this Friday as a fill in with a classic rock band. My wife looked at the place on Facebook and that’s all it took. Also our neighbor got held up at pointpoint the other night after her night shift so being out and about on the middle of the night is not an easy sell these days.

OP is from the 'Ham? Wonder what bar he's referencing.

Naw....the time I went the toilet seat was gone!

The Meatlocker was kinda famous too in that it brought some bands through over the course of 30 years....
