Yet another case of technology making more problems than it solves like MySpace, which was vital to the band in grabbing new followers in the beginning but now seems impossible, given the glut of bands on there. It's kind of like an open mic night, with everyone waiting to go on and no one listening.
"We actually do open mic nights to keep our chops up," Louvau says proudly. "If you're only doing select shows, once every month or so, it beats sitting around scratching our asses. So we'll go to Joe's Grotto on a Wednesday night, make up some name like Amateur Hour, and play to whoever's there. And get an honest reaction, too."
"You still got to give them the same show you would if it was packed," Kirksey says, "whether it's four people or 4,000. Obviously, it's a lot nicer when it's 4,000."
