We're booked to play our final pub gig of the year this Saturday. It's been booked for about two months. We've publicised it in all the usual ways, FaceBook, LemonRock, local press etc etc. Lots of friends coming.
This afternoon, the landlord emailed us (he can't spell either):
[i]"Hi guys, got a bit of bad news about this Saturday's gig, a woman came in Tuesday and booked a private party and there paying for there own band, I cant find your number anywhere if you could give me a call back or an email back confirming this email etc .... "[/i]
We wrote back to him telling him that either we play, or he pays our full fee. He's now backed off and cancelled the other party (I bet she's pleased) !
How he thought he'd get away with it is anybody's guess ..........
