I dont have fam in Oregon, I have 3-4 promoters in Oregon that will bring us there whenever we want to tour. Any city we frequently tour is because I have established connections there that book us.
We don't play in Cali/Seattle or (insert city here) because I haven't located the right promoter to book us there. Cali is weird with their age requirements / fees when trying to book shows myself and I have yet to find the right promoters to buy the dates. Trust me that everytime we tour I try Cali again, I've even asked for assistance from established folks on this board but none of em have come thru. Seattle is similar, havent located the right promoters.
The albums.
Every now and then I pop up with dates and then we blow em. Usually cause we really wasnt ready to set a date yet but I caved from pressure from the fans...we then try to meet the unrealistic date I set. Yall can see how that has been turning out.
When the projects are mastered I will then set the street date, and we will meet it cause the project is done.
Until then, "thanks everybody". A lot has changed in the business but knowing yall still dig us keeps us on it.
