1st of all there are two perspectives here: 'audience member' and 'musician'. 'audience members' are all concerned with re-entry, smoking, bouncers, etc... and the 'musicians' are concerned with busting their asses to help build a scene and getting RIPPED OFF in the process.

a band i played with played at Jarrod's in 2003. we were co-headlinging with a band from Ct, and we had been 'guaranteed' (Jarrod's word) a certain amount of $ for the gig. The Ct band cancelled that day and the club called us to tell us we were now headlining. OK, cool, we thought. So we drive there, do the gig, and get paid $0.00.... Jarrod tells us that that gig was a package deal, and that when the 2nd band cancelled, the 'guarantee' was off. DID HE TELL US THAT WHEN HE CALLED TO TELL US WE WERE HEADLINING? NO. HE TOLD US AFTER WE BROUGHT ALL OUR FRIENDS TO HIS CLUB TO BUY TIX AND BUY BEER, PLAYED THE SHOW AND MADE HIM MONEY.
THAT, my friends, is a fucking RIP OFF. and now this guy tries to come off like a hero trying to save our dying scene... when in reality he's trying to line up suckers that he can rip off for the next six months so that he can save his dying club.
