We would be willing to play a first show for $400 as a trial run and see how it goes. We have Jan 29th open as our next available date, if that...

We all have bad days, might as well let this one go. You have to BE and asshole to be an asshole, anyways. You either are one or you aren't. It isn't a choice.
