Last night at work the show was Matt Hopper and Kat Jones . A great show. She sang wonderfully and he played a fun set. The problem is that few people ever drink much during these shows. It doesn't matter what day of the week it is, these mellow artists do not sell booze.
So you are someone who books show and has to bring money into the bar. What do you do? You book rock bands. 50 people at a rock show will drink twice as much as 100 people at an acoustic show. These are real numbers. That's why most of these people play at coffeehouses.
Bring on the bluegrass, country, rock, or even r&b,hell, maybe even karaoke, but keep the acoustic folk out of my bar. I need to make a buck.
