hey everyone! (for some auditeers, this might look familar from your personal inboxes, the band STILL needs a gig!) I've come across a band in need of a place to play sat. 5/24 somewhere in the Philly, NJ, Maryland, DE realm. and a band in need is definitely one I CANNOT ignore. They're called the Coal Palace Kings and are playing in MD Friday night and in Asbury Park, NJ sunday night. Yes, I know it's a holiday weekend (hell, I'M going to be in NJ too visiting the family), but I couldn't pass up just a simple attempt to help them out. I've pasted the originial message from Jeff who's in the band. It's from another music digest I belong to. anyhow, if any of you can help, I'm sure those guys would be extremely happy. they've got that alt country twang thing going on, which I love just as much as power pop. if anyone can help, please do! the final 'we just want to play' is what made me want to help out if I could! thanks for your help! lauree :) band name: Coal Palace Kings web: www.coalpalacekings.com here's the message: Date: Tue, 06 May 2003 16:23:19 -0400 From: "Jeff Sohn" Subject: Gig Help After a last minute change of plans, Coal Palace Kings is trying to fill-in a gig date Memorial Day weekend and we we're looking for help or suggestions. We're playing in Maryland on Friday, May 23, and in New Jersey on Sunday, May 25. BTW Sunday is the fifth annual Twang Monster show in Asbury Park www.twangmonster.net. We're looking for a gig on SATURDAY, MAY 24, somewhere in or around Philly, DC, VA. I've been in touch with the obvious clubs and bars BUT at this late date we're just wondering if any P2 bands out there need some support for a night? An opening act? OR does anybody know of any bands working in the area on May 24 that you can turn us on to? We just want to play. Jeff www.coalpalacekings.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
