A Quesiton About Logans
| Message Board > General Chitchat > A Quesiton About Logans |
| Peter Gardner User Info... | I hope someone can answer this for me. Limblifter is playing a show at Logans in February, and I'd love to go, but I'm only 16. Does Logans have a blacony or something that they allow under-age kids to see shows at, that's away from the bar like some venues do? Thanks :) - Wed, 12 Jan 2005 3:46pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | Nope. Stand at the back door and listen real close like that Foreigner song. Then buy a six string and become a rock and roll star. - Wed, 12 Jan 2005 3:49pm | ||
| Nik Olaz User Info... | you can hit on some cougars and maybe they can get you in. - Wed, 12 Jan 2005 9:43pm | ||
| salmon queen User Info... | cougars at Logans?? - Wed, 12 Jan 2005 11:06pm | ||
| Livevic Scott User Info... | Standin' in the rain, with his head hung low, couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold out show, heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene, put his ear to the wall, and like a distant scream..... For the record, Josh, Tyson, Tim, Jeremy... if any of you are reading this ... YOU NEED TO COVER THIS SONG, i've been saying this for at least 2 years now!!! Come on, as if Moneyshot wouldn't do the PERFECT cover of this song?? - Thu, 13 Jan 2005 3:47am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | You want bands to cover Foreigner-Juke Box Hero?!? - Thu, 13 Jan 2005 9:21am | ||
| Wig User Info... | i've never seen a cougar at logans, some of the poor white trash girls that hang out there look a little older than they should. - Thu, 13 Jan 2005 12:26pm | ||
| Chris Logan User Info... | "Does Logans have a blacony or something that they allow under-age kids to see shows at, that's away from the bar like some venues do?" Sorry, Peter - despite what you'll sometimes hear on this board and elsewhere, there's no such thing as a wet/dry bar in British Columbia, and to do an all-ages show we'd have to suspend our licence for the entire day. It sucks, because we'd love to do all-ages if we could. - Thu, 13 Jan 2005 1:05pm | ||
| moron User Info... | Word. I have looked into this myself, the liquor control board has no concept of such a thing. And it does suck. Cheers - Thu, 13 Jan 2005 2:32pm | ||
| john User Info... | I dont understand, would you love to do an all ager or not? Sounds like a mighty big cop-out to me. - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 2:32am | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | why the fuck would they? - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 8:07am | ||
| Livevic Scott User Info... | I believe the answer is "we would love to do all ages, however we would go out of business and go broke if we did" You have no idea how much money putting on all ages shows dosen't make =)... Even less then putting on Bar shows, which as Mr. Logan will attest to at times ain't much =) - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 8:50am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | That's something I don't get, other then the poor turnout, how could you waste a ton of money putting on an all-ager? Unless Fernwood charges huge cash to rent there buildings. - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 9:47am | ||
| Chris Logan User Info... | "I dont understand, would you love to do an all ager or not? Sounds like a mighty big cop-out to me." john - I guess my post was a little vague. A bar can only do an all ages show outside of their licensed hours (which in hour case means the show would have to finish before 10 AM) or suspend their liquor license for the entire day. To clarify my point, we would love to do all-agers IF we could make enough money at them to pay our staff, rent, utilities, soundman, etc. etc. - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 11:23am | ||
| Livevic Scott User Info... | Griphin - Putting on an AA show generally costs more then a bar show because of all the things which are not built into a club. Venue, Sound, Stage, Lights, Security, insurance, etc where if your at a club these things are subsidsed by the liquor sales. And if a club were to do All Ages in BC they would not be able to sell liquor and would be back to the same place as someone trying to put on an All Ages show. No one makes money on all ages shows the way they have to be set up in town here, only way you can is from cutting corners and getting freebies, its not a profitable game plan and THAT is why there is no steady club/venue for it. - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 11:41am | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | aCk... I fergot about insurance, and paying security as well as renting the stage (there was a really decent stage at the last Fernwood All Ager I went to). - Mon, 17 Jan 2005 12:02pm | ||
| scenesreplayed User Info... | who gets a stage? and security and insurance? maybe all the shows ive been have been run terribly wrong... haha - Tue, 18 Jan 2005 4:52pm | ||
| _Griphin_ User Info... | I dunno, when I went to the Cancer all-ager benefit at Fernwood they had a really cool stage there. Ya need insurance just incase someone gets screwed up in the pit. Security you could probably get by asking friends to act as security for the show. I dunno. - Thu, 20 Jan 2005 9:26am | ||
| jay brown User Info... | Phil we got all that cool stuff for the cancer benefit because people were willing to donate their time and supplies to a good cause. With the normal take at the door of an all ages show here in town I would have to put on five or six shows to pay for that stage once. As far as security goes we had friends that are bouncers here in town that donated their time. We have a friend that made us up the security shirts at his work. etc.etc. - Thu, 20 Jan 2005 10:25am | ||
| Nocturna User Info... | On that subject ^^^ When is the next one happening? We should book a date soon, if it's at FCC. Maybe Laprider would offer that sweet stage again. Anyone heard from him lately? - Thu, 20 Jan 2005 1:15pm | ||
| laprider User Info... | Hey SV....I'm still around, just super busy with the TV show I've been working on and a reno in Market square. - Fri, 21 Jan 2005 10:13am | ||
| Nocturna User Info... | Hey, nice to hear from you S. TV show? That sounds interesting! You should visit us sometime and catch up. :) Cheers, S.V. - Fri, 21 Jan 2005 3:12pm | ||
| salmon queen User Info... | Happy Birthday Chris Logan! - Mon, 24 Jan 2005 12:57pm | ||
