Re: Wireless video receivers

I have some band guys and girls that come to my shows, and they know that they can practice some new material, or work on harmonies, or whatever. I used to manage a band in college and appreciate the hard work that it takes to be a good one, and keep everybody together, and learning new songs, and practicing, and being your own roadies.

My shows usually are in small places that couldn't support a band, or on a weeknight that most bands don't want, or bars can't afford. We get along well and the more established groups around here recommend me, and vice versa... now strictly DJ's are a different thing, and I have some friendly competition with some of the newer fly by nights... but mostly its not that cutthroat around here, as there are several large bar/clubs, as well as very few KJ's, DJ's, and decent Bands...

Re: Wireless video receivers

i was in a band since i was 18 yrs. old ( decades ago) as a guitar player,played mostly in asia, had to quit due to band mates drug use, and bickering, mostly about how many songs our 2 lead singers can do, came back to United States in 1973 and started another band, played in tri-states, Philly, Jersey and Ny.( mostly stripped joints and some private gigs) same scenario, drugs and cold weather, moved to Fla.in 1980 to get away from those things,got married, and decided to go on my own as a dj and switched to kj this time just a hobby, but i never disrespected anybody even if they can't sing or can't play , caused i know how much time and money these people invested.the place i work now is kinda big it holds up about 160 people and has plenty of room for bands, but this place is not really set-up for bands, because of the athmosphere( did i spell that right )
