i only had $9.25 for donnybrook. thanks skinny i owe you a slurpee or something.
i think everyone in calgary that puts on any show i would ever be at is pretty cool about understanding and being cool with it if someone at least makes an honest attempt to pay. ive also let people only pay $5 for a $10 show cause they wanted to use the other 5 to buy a shirt or record. supporting the bands = fine by me. at the same time i fucking HATE when people feel that they shouldnt have to pay on account of being "scene veterans" or something cause they play in a band or put on a few shows. sure im more likely to be understanding for someone that contributes, but they should be the ones most willing to shell out the $10 cuase they KNOW what its like t have to pay a venue or pay bands.
also if youre chain smoking outside or drinking and you cant afford to pay time and time again? get fucked.
