Good on you Villan.

but that is only the artistes that are 'billed' get in free isnt it? and you dont have 'surprise floor spots'

As I book one 'guest' I ask all attendees to pay, including residents , as most of us are artistes that way we support the project. You must have a largish number of pure 'audience' which we dont have.Therefore it can be said that 'artiste supports artiste' and that way 'artistes' are given exposure.

I could be wrong

When I have a larger 'audience' pool then maybe I can do as you as a reward for loyalty.

We had 20 - best att for 2005 - for Mike Deavin who did 2 x 35 minutes with all well written songs. He'll do another set without repeating on 13th feb.
