   • I would pay double, no wait, triple for a ticket if you could convince Serpent Throne to come over.
     
     And - have a best tattoo competition then raffle off something like a big poster signed by all the artists or a puppy or a bag or weed or soemthing.
     
     And - free sweets on the bar.
     
     Good luck.

     We have vowed to only ever do London gigs with Chas & Dave or the Cockney Rejects though.

    • Earthless is a great shout! They would be get-able I reckon and would draw the punters in for sure. Arguably the best jam-band I've ever seen.
      
      I reckon you should keep this one at the Gaff unless demand is super high. Yeah the pillar is annoying and it's hot as fuck in there when there's 100 or so in, but it has a great atmosphere, good staff, and just enough flexibility. When you pack that out, THEN move onto a bigger venue/bands etc. I'm not saying the sky isn't the limit, it is, but small-scale will fuel the awesomeness, reviews and word-of-mouth better than the Scala with 40 people in it.

    • Yeah have to agree with Pete, better to be small and rammed than large and half full.
      
      Plus the gaff has a nice atmosphere to it that could be lost in the scala or underworld.

    • What did poeple think of having the days segregated into styles...clssic/stoner on one day and sludge/doom the next? Personally I think it would be far more of a benefit to mix it all up as it can get a little heavy going seeing a whole bunch of similar bands one after the other. I'd be a lot more interested in maybe seeing someone like Dopefight then maybe Domes of Silence then maybe Serpent venom then Invasion and mixing it all up a little more. Plus it brings a greater breadth of punters into each day and helps the doom fans to catch on to a little more stoner and vice versa rather than just playing to their usual crowds. I think people would be more likely to get tickets for both days this way than to pick and choose.

    • to the untrained ear, most of what we do sounds the same anyway and we'll get far more pretty girls there if we mix it up and it's advertised as "PSYCHEDELIC GARAGE ROCK N' ROLL SEXX CHURCH" than "Sludge, Doom, Psyche, Stoner all dayer".
      
      i know it sounds like something from a japanese cartoon, but i also know what women want.
      
      also...retro clothing and homewares in "PURPLE HOLLOW" will pull in the punters who (like me) are too shallow to just watch hairy dudes rock out all day.

      Even though we had a mention, Ta, Ollie as usual is right a 2 day event of bands from across the stoner/doom/sludge spectrum would be a big draw .

      I agree here too. And to a certain extent I think Jack did that last year very well, although there was a more metally day of the two.
