Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
It appears that I will be in San Francisco on March 26th and 27th. Not to be selfish or anything, but is there any way that we could work the tour around this fact?

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
Even without a tour we should totally have a local concert when you're here. I've been itching to perform again but I don't have enough material for a full set.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
So then, if Portland were to happen (keeping the usual 2 day gap between SF & PDX), it'd be on Tuesday (24th) or Sunday (29th) in March... depending on the direction this tour travels... or are we not that far in planningings yet?

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
My work schedule definitely does not me to tour at that time, unfortunately. :/ Someone else would have to be the Ken this year.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
Screwheads are saving their pennies for Spokane this summer. I could put together a solo set for a stop in Portland... I think. But SF & Seattle are out this time, alas As are the dates 3/24 & 4/8, for me.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
I do not believe that we are that far in planning, but why not? If Sunday the 29th was Portland, does that mean that Seattle would be on Monday the 30th? If we are going the other way, that would put us on Monday the 23rd. Either one is a Monday. How does that work? do do do do do do do do.Rabid Garfunkel wrote:So then, if Portland were to happen (keeping the usual 2 day gap between SF & PDX), it'd be on Tuesday (24th) or Sunday (29th) in March... depending on the direction this tour travels... or are we not that far in planningings yet?

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
It doesn't, yo. Maybe we should start with potential stops/shows and then start throwing dates around for the formal tour?

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
So if you are out for the 24th, then the 29th sounds more reasonable for Portland, yeah? And it works for Ken.
I think we may be self-sufficient by then. We have a new drummer.

Another one?! You go through drummers faster than most people go through toothbrushes.
(That reminds me, I need to buy a new toothbrush.)

It is true that we are hard on drummers. But then again, they are hard on us.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
3/29 is viable, yeah... I keep forgetting that a tour doesn't have to be a big string of concurrent nights. Duhhhhh...

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
I am not suggesting that they not be sequential.
If there was something happening in S.F. on the 26th or 27th, I could be in Portland on the 29th and still put on a Seattle show early in the week of the 31st. It's just that everyone else would have to work around us. What do you say, everyone else?

You just need to lure in a guitar player and then try doing a gig without any sort of percussion until the guitar player gets fed up and changes jobs.Spud wrote:It is true that we are hard on drummers. But then again, they are hard on us.
It worked before, anyway.

Believe me, we have continued to work that angle with Elvis. However, we may have a breakthrough here. We shall see.fluffy wrote:You just need to lure in a guitar player and then try doing a gig without any sort of percussion until the guitar player gets fed up and changes jobs.Spud wrote:It is true that we are hard on drummers.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
I could probably do another Moscow show if there's interest. I might think Glenn's going to be focusing on the summer show for Spokane.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
I was just thinking about this last night. Still headed to SF March 26th and 27th. Would be fun to hook up with some of you tour or not. But tour is better.

Re: Song Fight West Coast Tour 2009
Yes, we definitely need to do a show or at least a get-together. Party/jam at my place?
Oh hey Spud, on that note, while you're here you could look at my goddamn balcony in person, too, if it's not too much to ask (I realize you probably won't have a lot of time for that).
