There you go.. A gig for all! Sell 30 tix and you're on the way!
More to come with gigs that need people to sell tix!

i am not trying to step on anyones shoes or anything lah, but it just seems to me that the word "ticket" and dollar signs are overflowing in this kind of thing. it is never about the music. and i know people need to make money and feed their 10 kids and shit but alot of us spend our entire lives working our ass off to do it, and music is the one place where it isnt about the rice bowl or the rat race or shit. but it just seems to me that this just cannot happen in reality.

alot of the people here are young and they just want to play. not to earn some money for some bloke

again, that is just my sentiment lah. if it strikes a chord or a nerve, that is your prerogative.
