The guy, and his g/f stuck around cuz he had never heard us play, and must have enjoyed us because I don't think I bought a beer all night.
I did buy them a few rounds, so...

I agree with the word of mouth thing.
I tell people about GCB daily.
Its what members need to do to build this place up.
A sad effect of message boards is that people get upset about things that I don't think would bother them in person, where they could see the other person's body language and know they're just teasing or playing. The great thing about spending time at Metal Sludge's board is that you develop a think skin there. You can't post anything there without somebody flaming you. After awhile you just don't give a damn when somebody gives you some crap.

Anyway, sorry I ran that guy off!
