Almost nobody from here showed up, but we sold out Dizzy's -

I hope you all enjoy the Vision Festival, my vision was the full house at Dizzy's on Tuesday night  -  and thanks to Cliff -

Allen, it was a great show.

Allen, people from this forum have supported your rwork throughout the years and yet you complain about people from the forum not attending your shows, this time with a dig in your thread title.  You left in a fit for months only to return and continue to promote yourself here.  If you don't value the support you have received, maybe you should move on or just keep the snarky comments to yourself.

to be fair he did say "Almost nobody," not "nobody."

Considering the international flavor of the posters to this forum, expecting many of us to show up in New York City for a particular show, on a Tuesday night no less, seems to be asking a bit much of us.

I have a tough enough time making shows in Boston on a Tuesday night!

[AllenLowe]

awright don't take it all so personally; just wait until about 30 of you post about how much you enjoyed the Vision Fest.

And I don't snark; I am very direct.

And I did not leave here for lack of support but because of my deep sensitivity to imagined insult.

There will be perfect synchronicity when Allen is booked to play the Vision Festival in 2019.

So...on behalf of those of us who tried to make the show but had their legs cramp up after walking as far as Oklahoma did not get to find out firsthand...do they actually serve Coca-Cola in this joint, and if so, is it bottled, canned, or fountain? Because if it's not fountain, don't blame me for not taking a bus out of Little Rock (had I been able to walk that far, which I was not).

For real, though, when Kool was sponsoring stuff, they'd have happy people on hand to give away packs of those puppies, at first, just like "sample" packs, then, as the walls began to close in, full-size 20 packs (and boxes, if you got there early enough!). Not the same thing I know, but quite seriously - do they serve the good stuff there, the real fountain Coke from the syrup?

Not sure about the source of the cokes at Dizzys, but they definitely don't give it away for free.

I already have my Firehouse 12 Spring Series season pass. So, unless an unexpected childcare conflict arises, I will see you on March 23rd.

When I see all of the shows I'm missing in NYC on a regular basis, like George Coleman this weekend at Smoke, I get very jealous.

[AllenLowe]

I was stopped at JFK with a suitcase full of rotten tomatoes. Agricultural produce, apparently.

I hear ya. Was gonna come to your birthday party but I'm on the "do not let have fun" list -

[JSngry]

Hey, that's MY list. Get off it now. Right now.
