On Thursday June 21, 2012, Marygold's hosted a tribute show in honor of Chuck Brown. The bands said to perform were:
Changing Phaces
Project 360
Steel Band
What
Backyard
I had planned on trying to catch every band but, I got there late... I was jy looking forward to this show. BYB & What for only $10!!! Unheard of... I'm not fooling with their poddy on July 3rd so this was perfect...
Arriving at a quarter till one, I was really hoping for ONCE a promoter would be honest & I would avoid any swindleage. To my surprise, there really wasn't a line... (the flyer said no line no wait) I walked straight in & really paid $10!!! So I'm jy ready to poddy & then I got a bomb dropped on me... "BACKYARD IS NOT PLAYING" Yup, I was blown... I woulda felt a lil better about the situation if they had played earlier but, the band pulled out altogether... Don't ask me why? I have a theory tho... I'll get to that later ..
So now I'm stuck with the What Band... You're prolly thinking I'm bouta go in on What but, I'm not... I was pretty pleased with their show & was kinda disappointed it ended so soon. I thought they did a decent job when they covered Chuck Brown. Plus, they hit crystal skate....
Marygold's has to get their bar together... It's gotten to a point where I refuse to buy a drink at their bar... It's rather fluke. How can your bartenders make money if you're so tight with your bar regulations??? Marygold's would be worth the trip if they had a better bar...
Some other sh*t I didn't like:
I heard project 360 pulled out too, like yall can afford to do that lol... I mean maybe you can... Nah you can't lol. I'm sure they had a good reason... >_>
I also heard Steel Band didn't kno the words to run joe... This was like one of CB's biggest hits... WTF, this was supposedly a tribute show. Forgetting/not knowing the words is just unacceptable IMHO.
BYB, BYB, BYB... Iont wanna throw my fav band under the bus, but them not showing up just doesn't sit well with me... I don't know the actual reason but, I kno they have a big show coming up with What @ Ibiza. Tribute show or not, I could see the disadvantage of playing with What before then. Not to mention none of the bands performing were paid.cuz it was for Charity & maybe their management didn't feel like it was worth it... However, as a fan none of this even matters to me... No shows are never a good look...
And on that note, I'm out....
