Well, I was going to respond but the person below covered it. We have no choice. We would PREFER a weekend show, since we would have a larger crowd, but alas they will not be in our are on a weekend...so there is no choice.

: : WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE TO BOOK CONCERTS ON WEEKNIGHTS? I'D LIKE TO SEE STAVESACRE BUT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO GET THERE BY A DECENT HOUR. I GET OFF WORK BETWEEN 7 & 8 P.M. I LIVE IN NORTH WEST PASCO COUNTY. I CAN'T DON THERE SEE THE SHOW AND SIILL GET ENOUGH SLEEP TO LEAVE FOR WORK AT 6:15AM.
: WHY do people book on weeknights? Because bands on the road can't just play 2 nights a week. They'd starve. Could you work 2 days a week and pay your bills? Someone has to have the weekday gigs. Very often the promoters don't have a choice. So lighten up... ...please.
: P.S. - Using all upper case in emails and postings is widely accepted to mean you are shouting. Many folks consider it rude. (Just so you know...)
