times were often tough... hard to believe in these days of instant and immediate internet success and untold riches for every single new band who only need to send out a quick 'check out my new tunes' bulletin to have the crowds flocking,but things were tougher in the olden days.like many other struggling bands of the time laughing clowns were often strapped for cash.many's the time i remember having to send them out to do odd jobs to pay the rent.heres an example. putting up posters was essentially illegal , but in reality a strictly controlled activity by a small thuggish cartel . you had to be quick witted and fleet of foot to put up anything that wasn't done via the 'right' channels.here is my historically accurate documentation of the band [and our manager the prince ] in operation, in this instance paying the bills by putting up posters for rival bands.
