My project of last winter is about to have it's grand opening.


There


was a lot more construction done not seen in the stage picture,


including the building of additional rooms and some major re-wiring.


Now


it's time to put it to use.

So, when do The Eagles play? Nice work.


------------------------------------------


Believe it or not my son looked into having the Eagles perform at a


private get together we had about 10 years ago. He contacted their


booking agency who said that if they happened to be touring in our


general area, it was possible to hire them (if they thought it was


interesting). They were scheduled to perform in Providence, RI


around the time we were having the event, so my son took it to the


next step. I've forgotten exactly what the fee was but it was well


over $100 grand plus transportation, equipment and other specific


requirements ... all for about a one hour performance. It would


have been a blast but we decided to set up a PA system and play CDs


instead.


I have worked out an arrangement with a local guy who owns the largest


backstage equipment rental company in New England. He supplies


instruments, sound systems, lights, Hammond B3s and other equipment to


major touring bands when they are in the Boston area. He also


supplies equipment and gear for the Comcast Center, Wang Center and


other major venues. He told me that he is often asked for


recommendations for small performance venues in the area for


rehearsals and photo/video shoots for advertising. There are a couple


of places in Boston and one in central MA that they use for these


purposes but there is nothing on the south shore where we are. He's


going to start including us in his recommendations and will supply any


equipment needed. I've been to his office a few times. His walls


are lined with pictures of him with musicians including James Taylor,


Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Willie Nelson and many others


who he has rented sound and instruments to over the years. There are


two venues in our area, one in Cohasset (South Shore Music Circus)


and another near Hyannis on the Cape that book major performers during


the summer months. Our place would be ideal for them. So, we'll


see who we get to meet.


You and Harry are both lock-step into the off-topic bull****. Shove it


up your ass, you over-rich turd.


You relish exhibiting your child like behavior and name calling.


What does that say about you?


Repeat, repeat, repeat.....what a joke.


That's a direct quote from Don, of course.



You do know that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?
