and you were there, and you were there

I dreamed last night I was opening a bar in a store front space down on the strip. Except, of course, it was a dream so it was as much East Atlanta as Tennessee Street. I was trying to redo the inside to get it ready, and several of you were there to "help". I mostly remember Taylor, Shane, Ben from the Scars, and Jacob. Except you all wanted to turn on Dropkick Murphys instead, and all of a sudden all these people showed up and started partying.

except for the strip part of that, i wish that dream were a reality. okay, and except for random people showing up and partying.

basically, i want the clubhouse.

There's a space next to the Shed, in the same building, for rent for under $300 a month. I don't know if utilities are included. Arkham's Gate was trying to get the Scars to go in on it, to share as a practice space and to use as a sort of VIP lounge during Shed shows.

under $300? seriously? hmmmm.... sounds interesting, very interesting.

[sharpie marker]

Doesn't it, though? How many people could we get to go in on it?

[debster]

most of the people that could afford it we wouldn't want there. hahaha! damn.... hmmm... worth talking to folks about. i dunno.

I do think it would be a good idea for a couple bands to split it as a practice space.

[debster]

yeah, no kidding. but it would have to be two bands that know each other very, very well. you wouldn't want all your equipment in there with a band that was kinda sketchy.

[sharpie marker]

Obviously. Heck, if I was in a band splitting a space like that, I'd probably build a small chicken wire enclosed space in back to lock up my gear. It wouldn't stop anyone determined to get it, but it would keep the other band from "borrowing" anything in a pinch.
