Ticket Sales 1

So far I have made about 56 euro on eventbrite (after the Eventbrite fee for small gigs.) 

The graph below shows event traffic. Red is traffic by searching for the event on the site, and black is direct traffic, i.e. The QR code on the gig poster. 

The large spikes roughly correlate with 
1: Initial online promotion. 
2: Posters going up around town.
3: The second push of online promotion

Sound Engineer Update

The engineer I had (who was also transport for all gear) was involved in a car accident this afternoon. While nobody was injured, his car was destroyed and he is unable to work tomorrow. One of my old classmates is luckily available from just before doors, so Yordanka will be the engineer for the gig. For gear transport, my guitarist is able to borrow a van to transport gear earlier in the day, but will have to return it as soon as gear is dropped and won't be back until again, just before doors. This means that myself and the bassist (possibly drummer as well) will be left to set up the venue ourselves for the day. Luckily the venue owner is able to open the doors for us earlier in the day so we will have 7 hours to set up the venue, go home to get ready, and head back to the venue with time for sound checks. After the gig my brother will be there to load at least the PA and stage monitors into his car to get them back to my studio. The rest of the gear may have to stay overnight,...

Practice 4

As the previous practices have gone so well, today was a lot shorter, and I forgot to record anything from it. We played just a verse and chorus from most songs, then all of "Everybody," "Welcome to Paradise," and "Man in the Box." This practice was also played in standard tuning rather than concert tuning, so my voice was very slightly strained on the higher notes, even though I can normally hit them comfortably.  I also tested one of the PA systems today and it worked brilliantly. At previous practices I had to scream every song in order to be heard, so it was nice to actually sing correctly for the songs that needed softer singing.

Lineup Change

On account of a schedule clash, Adam (rhythm guitar) has had to back out. He has been replaced by the singer/guitarist from EZ Company, a pop punk band which Uwe also  plays drums for. As each member of the group gets to choose at least 1 song for the group to play, we will be changing the Pixies "Where is My Mind" for something else. We will all learn his song of choice by next practice, and will try it out then. The gear will also slightly change, but not drastically. Basically just the reverb pedal and the synth pedal will be removed, the reverb will be replaced by a delay set to a medium-high repeat rate with a high feedback rate to imitate reverb.
