How often do you tape?
« on: January 27, 2005, 04:55:52 PM »
I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I'm curious how often most people tape on average.  Just for constancy's sake, we will count band + opener, as 1 time out.

yeah... I was going to put that, but I think we all tape as often as possible.  For some it is possible more often than for others!  Damn... every weekend?  That is cool for sure.  I'm running about 3 or 4 per month usually, and I thought that was quite a bit!  Is that mostly local stuff or are you hitting a lot of big shows as well?

I generally make it out to 8-10 shows a month.  Austin also gets a lot of week day shows, all within a few minute walk from my office(stubbs, antones, la zona rosa, the parish, the vibe, austin music hall, etc...).

not often enough. 4-5 shows a year, not counting the rare local act I catch.

overall for a year probably 3-4 a month, this winter hasn't been busy for me but Feb I have 4-6 shows depending how lazy I am, mostly national bands since my favorite local bands broke up and/or play the worst venues possible that isn't worth taping so I leave the rig at home

February though I already have tickets for 8 shows I'm taping and 6 are in one 10 day period.

**drooling over the venue list**

Some friends of mine lived in Austin for a while but I only got down there once.  My trip was so short I didn't even get a chance to hit the clubs  :'(
