You may have noticed on our newest gig poster that the Fed is starting to charge cover! I went to a Helcion show the other night, and was surprised to learn that I had to shell out $5 to see my favorite band. Confused, I asked my good friend Ryan, the proprietor of this fine venue, what was going on. He explained it like this...." I'm getting sick of seeing all these awesome bands come out to play, lugging gear around, practicing for weeks, and leaving here with $10 to show for it.If there's anyone who doesn't want to give up a measly $5 cover to see these great bands; I don't want them in here anyways!"
So now Ryan is paying all the door to the bands, helping us all pay for sticks, strings, gas, etc. Please don't think he is trying to stiff you, or that he will keep any of the money. I know him to be an honest man, and a HUGE asset to Kelowna's music scene. We hope you think we're worth the $5, and we'll rock that much harder to make it up to you!!!
Thanks,
Chad
