a checklist

THE FIRST LIMP CAT SHOW IS DONE!
NOW WHAT?

what does limp cat need to do? here's a checklist of the things we need to work on.

1. band discipline- we need to ensure everybody comes, and everybody comes on time. this was a huge problem that ate up a huge chunk of days one and two. especially two because three bands couldn't come because they shared a sick drummer who incidentally was sick that night.
2. equipment- we need to secure equipment to ensure the show runs smoothly, the only problem is who's willing to help, and how willing they are to do so.
3. wires and cables- we need to make sure every vocalist is heard with a mic in his/her hands. we wouldn't want Strength Through Vengeance and Damosa Crew complaining with that pitboss for a vocalist, would you?
   
4. crowd control- to make sure no windows get broken and to make sure the organizer doesn't go walking around uyanguren looking for a glass shop only to find that they need specific measurements for one fucking pane.
   
5. ticketing system- fuck tickets, i wanna make sure everything is free if you come with a can of food for the needy. if we're ever gonna charge, it's only 15 bucks for the bar and nothing else.

anyway, now that's out of the way, we seriously need to find ways to get everybody set on going to shows on time. hopefully, we'll get to do that for the next show we organize. we're also gonna get to work with a real system for every limp cat show. i'm thinking of organizing meetings for every band who's gonna play, where we draw lots for slots instead of getting people to come whenever they want because they think they're band number 3940328e8475938. another issue we need to address is equipment. we seriously need help in that department, and if anybody wants to, that would be very, very welcome. it would be really awesome if everybody brought instruments, wouldn't it? yeah, thought so. now, moving on, i also think Limp Cat needs more staff. not that we're being "professional" or anything, we just need more people to help manage crowds and handle ticketing to ensure nobody's pulling the Limp Cat's legs. that's IF we're gonna charge for entrance however. i was thinking of actually pushing through with the slew of benefit shows i had planned for sick and people where your only entrance fee is to bring a can of food or some noodles or whatnot for people who need it more than we do. we aren't a fucking profit oriented production, right? thought so.

anyway, that's it for now.
