They dont even get help...
Little Brother played in Atlanta on Tuesday night. A night that I sat on my ass and pretty much watched TV, which was the first time I did that in probably 3 months. But SHIT - I would have much rather been down at the Apache Club seeing these guys. No promotion what so ever. Not even their website has the date posted. I scowered the Creative Loafing last week while bored at lunch one day, nothing. No ads, no nothing. How did I find out about it, driving down Piedmont on Wednesday and seeing one of those side of the building posters plastered to a run down Shoney's. It said 9/29 - Tuesday - Little Brother - Apache. Man this is just one of those situations that gets my fuckin' goat.
The message boards on the Little Brother site are constantly talking about how
Atlantic doesn't give these guys any love - doesnt push the album - doesnt push the video. Ah well, I guess these are the hazzards of signing on with a big daddy. Sucks though mainly b/c LB was one of those bands that I really was looking forward to seeing live - esp with this new record out and shit. I knew they would come through. They did, on a Tuesday night, at a club that would have had at least two more people there if they would have promoted the muthafucka.
