I hope you guys find some good shows- but c'mon 'Hours Before Dawn'?

That's the lamest name I've heard of in a VERY long time.

Just a bit of creative critisism... - Mon, 4 Oct 2004 11:56pm

Hey if you wanna play somewhere for free, A little while ago I had an acoustic band, no drums, but we played the "sidewalk cafe" in fairfield and they let us play every saturday morning till whenever. We dont play their anymore but im sure they would let you play if you asked, and we got a free meal out of the deal so check it out. - Thu, 7 Oct 2004 9:38pm

Logan's Pub - Wednesday Open Mike - Sunday Hootenanny (usually solo)
Steamers Pub - Every Monday
Spiral cafe - they book accoustic acts all the time

Besides that I'd recommend just contacting bars and cafes.

Also the Hootenanny is good if you prefer a crowd nowadays. - Thu, 7 Oct 2004 11:13pm
