Hi Kurt,
While it is true we don't use a drummer it is mainly because of cost and
space. Many venues have stages geared for duos let alone a five piece =
band
plus a drum kit. I'll keep you in mind though if you ever come to =
Australia!

Richard,

Perhaps you are getting all of those gigs because you don't have a =
drummer
(or even a washboard player).  Say it ain't so...(this is a
drummer/washboard player talkin').

Hello all,

We must be lucky, we have great fee paying venues on a regular weekly =
basis.

Tuesday around 80 (max 90) guests on a sunset cruise on the beautiful =
Noosa
River. Running 8 years
Wednesday around 190 meals served at the Tewantin Noosa Bowls Club =
running
since January
Thursday around 180 meals served at the Swan Bowling Club at =
Maroochydore
running 6 years.
Tonight a once a month Gig at Virginia Golf Club in Brisbane. Booked out =
150
diners.
I find mid week gigs the easiest to get. I look for a joint that is =
empty,
bar staff bored and kitchen closing at 7 pm. THERE IS ONE IN EVERY TOWN.
Mind you the luck runs out if you don't get the numbers!

regards,
Richard Stevens
