I'd be able to get my hands in the mix if the venues would quit closing around here!! We've had three major venues close since January
Club Clearview, Galaxy Club, and The Gypsy Ballroom.
I most certainly don't want to put any of these bands in a place like Reno's Chop Shop or The Darkside Lounge. Maybe Tomcat's, but that's pretty small. The Granada would be a good size but they tend towards country, pop, or light rock with the occassional brutal show like Testament, so maybe that would work. Nokia Theater is really for "arena" shows, too big! So Ft Worth will likely get all the cool shows now, but Ridglea Theater isn't just a "hop, skip, and a jump" away for Dallas-ites... Maybe if TREES would open again or Curtain Club wasn't in such demand being the only venue for midcard bands...
