Its not like you're trying to fill an arena or anything.


So every show should sell out right?

What about 200 and 300 person venues?

Every show a sell out, right?

Every show that you come here raving about should... You always claim these "Big" announcements are groundbreaking, then I would hope the frick that they would sell out.

fricking Bush....

Seriously, though, a "big" show in Baton Rouge doesn't imply quality.

Agree


But to use "Every show has sold out" as proof that these acts are good is laughable. Thats why I said that if the band is even remotely known, it should sell out in a 800 person venue inside of a metro area of 400k.

Hey, bush appeals to a lot of people. Hence it selling out.

It's a business, they make money while providing entertainment to people.

Sometimes it's stuff I really like, sometimes it's stuff I don't care for but realize that a lot of other people obviously do.

So do Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus, but it doesn't make their music any less generic.

Did you even read the thread? I stated pretty clearly that "big" does not mean quality. It seems you may need to:

So you're just whining for the sole purpose of whining?

Pointing out that Bush is an extremely generic derivative of Seattle grunge is not whining.

Exactly. No matter what show gets announced, some snob on here is going to bash it.

Well then just sit tight until they announce it. You should be excited purely out of curiosity. Wait for the whining until after it is announced

There is no whining, only discussing, unless you include whining about what other people think of Bush...
