..and the reasoning behind it is that Halloween has always been my favorite holiday and - SOMEHOW - I had never done a Halloween show in previous bands.. EVER.. Even tho Halloween was kinda made for me - it just never worked out in the past.. so I REALLY wanted to do Halloween in X.. and we did - like 18 years in a row..
Now, the CRAPPY thing is that the singer broke up X because he wants to concentrate on his other 80's metal band that he calls all the shots in.. and he just happened to STEAL the Halloween shows away from me.. it was MY big deal to do Halloween and he took those shows for his other band..
So, I'm HOPING to have something ready by this Halloween so we could play a different venue.. Normally, Halloween shows for X were sold out months in advance and standing room only.. 3 months ago the singer's new band did Halloween and had maybe 30-40 people there.. But, it really irritates me to no end that he did that..
Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
