Tour Venues Needed

[peter cardoso]

In Providence check out AS220 at as220.org There a venue,gallery,bar, community art center.They do it all and host this type of thing all the time.It's a stage for unjuried uncencored preformace and the mix is awsome. I Got to see a dude rock out on a tin wistle one night and the fucking champs the next. Great Place. Hope that helps, myself and the print mafia will be having a HUGE gallery show there in september.Look out folks it's going to rock.

also in san francisco you should try the odeon bar

it's run by a guy named chicken john.......i met him last year on my vacation through a contortionist friend of mine who lives there.......they book unusual acts, freakshows, etc......

We've got to deliver posters to a promoter in Athens next week... I'll print out the description & run it by him while we're there. He also books shows in Atlanta, so he may have a venue good for puppets....

Athens is a tough sell in the summer after all the kids go home for their college break, but there's still shows going on....

hey jason, is chicken john the same chicken john that used to play in gg allin's band? hmmm...

[jcooper]

i don't think he's the same one........i only spoke to him briefly and he didn't seem that extreme........probably not, i think someone around would have mentioned it to me if he had played with GG........he seemed more like a game show host-type personality than hardcore........

email me when you might cross over the philly area... ill then check the roster... its amazing how sometimes last minute things i can slip by, but if well in advance its a problem...
we have been getting alot of comedy booked, from jaene garofolo (spelled wrong).. robin williams and much more lately.

Check with HANDS UP HOUSTON if youre coming through Houston-way. Theyre at:
http://www.HandsUpHouston.com

Take a look at the great shows theyve put on: the last show they did was FUGAZI. Totally open-minded and free-form set-ups...Youre thing is just the kind of stuff they'd love to have on before/between the bands.
