Shred no longer works there. Let the new guy know you're playing.
(well, he's not "new" but there's probably 5 people here old enough to know who Martin Doyle is, so...)


"Hello

Please email me at MFD@abombsquad.com. If you are playing OBs so i can help with the promotion, or if you would like to play in the future.

Thank You

martin doyle"

That might explain why Shred no longer returns my mail. Is this guy taking over booking at the Middle East too?

No, Shred still does the M.E

Do we know who the new manager of OBs is?

of coruse I know who martin doyle is

Poems by: Martin Doyle
THE TRUTH

I was told
that the truth hurts.
It was true
and it hurt to know.



STICKERS

You toucha my car
I smasha your face.
That's a sticker
for the tough lads.
You toucha my car
I'm not unduly bothered.
That's mine.



IT WAS A HACKNEY MORNING

I saw a cat
dead in a gutter on its back,
and an up-ended chair
as I walked by.
I saw a busted street-light
twisted so it faced the sky.
Things are looking up I thought.



NEVER THIS TWAIN

Here's a riddle.
One man.
One woman.
No trouble.
The answer?
They've never met.

no fucking way! Martin Doyle used to book the Causeway, he was really cool. Have you talked to him Josh?

Hey Josh, I emailed Martin last week and haven't received a response, do you have any other contact info for him? Or could you ask him if he got my email?

I e-mail him like two weeks ago and haven't gotten anything back. I think I enraged O'Briens by putting on two well-drawing shows in a row.

I havent heard back about whether my nov 25th show is still happening or not!

Shred just emailed me and said all the shows he had booked are now cancelled.

Does this include the Heavy Metal Breakdown show next Monday?

Joe/NotCommon said:

including the 29th?

oh shit.
If that is true, that is fucking retarded

Yeah, you had TWO shows, 24th, 29th.....

let's hope this can be remedied.

if its true, it wont be for a while, but ill try and rebook the same line up to do it at a later date, somewhere else, for fun

all dates have been erased from their calendar so i think even heavy metal breakdown

people might wanna find out whats going on

DrinkHardThrashHard said:

yeah, two shows I was looking forward to in a huge way. grrrrrrrrrrrrr

None of Shred's shows are cancelled, anyone who needs to talk to Martin Doyle can call him at O'Brien's between 6-9, Wed thru Sat.

i emailed purp and he is going to ask the guy to get back to me one way or the other, if he does I will ask him about these other shows and report back to you all in this thread

yeah, you lousey spammer...

Thanks Alex and Joe for checking on this.

They never update their calendar.

This is straight from the bartendress tonight, she asked me to help squelch the rumors about Shred's shows being cancelled, so that's that.

excellent, and the children had no reason to stay home and actually came out to the shows now

you are the first offical non-bot person to be blocked for spamming.
haha

They do have a reason to stay home if Joe will be there.

joe would never be seen at one of our shows, so the children are safe.

BARTENDRESS is a great name for a band...

I'm glad I flew off the handle for no reason. I was going to go break things

You and Fred...
