the hotel utah

The sound is terrible, the place is cramped, but some how the vibe makes up for it in spades!
I you get a chance read the history, the club has been about having a space for artists to sharpen their knives. It's the kind of spot you don't appreciate the 1st couple of times but somehow you end up back there.

Saw the Saturday show, Kevin Meagher played a set. Haven't seen him on stage since Bluebeard
played Slims... 2003..4 ??? He's still rocking the 6, and sounds like he may be connecting with the Pete The Crusher Gerad ... the Crusher because he hits those skins so damn hard! High probability of rockage ...

Code Monkey (Jonathan Coulton )plays 2 SOLD OUT shows At the Great American

So how do you fill the house 2 consecutive nights at the GAMH?

Step1) write a catchy tune about something a lot of people can relate to...
Step 2 ) get some cool animation and post to youtube (anyone got any ideas about this step ?)
Step 3) let the hits roll in
Step 4) once you get to 2,000 hits you can think about booking a show at an entry level club aka ... The  Hotel Utah
Step 5) if you get to 20,000 hits on your youtube video, you can start thinking about playing some gigs in the local area at clubs where you may make enough for gas money home. definately update your myspace page and probably should start a blog
Step 6) at 200,000 hits-  now you should probably have some merch specific to your youtube one hit wonder... you can spread you geographic gig potential.  YOu'll probably have to take time off from your day job, and if the merch doesn't sell well you'll be in the whole but fuck it ! You're on the road playing Rock n Roll ! it's F-ing Rock n Roll fantasy camp!!!!
Step 7) at 2,000,000 hits .... book the show at GAMH!
