People looking for arguments are always going to find them imo. Is that the summation of it though?
While there's undoubtedly a huge bias in such a male dominated industry, I don't really buy that a festival booker is excluding acts based on gender. They need to book acts that they feel are viable ticket sellers and the reality is that the bulk of female acts that sell tickets are in the pop arena (taylor swift was the biggest or close to the biggest selling music act last year but wouldn't fit on the Reading lineup which has traditionally been a heavier rock festival, a genre dominated by men). When acts that can sell tickets pop up for summer festivals, they're booked e.g. warpaint and bjork last year, patti smith is headlining a show at kilmainham in the summer and some or all of these will likley appear at Electric Picnic - Babes in Toyland, Belle and Sebastian(confirmed), Jungle, Sleater Kinney, Soak, Tori amos. Think it's a little naive to think that festivals are going to stick on token female acts just because of their gender when there simply isn't that many female rock or dance acts that are capable of selling large volumes of tickets. That's not the fault of the festivals as there's not many that won't showcase up and coming female acts if they're there to be booked. Think it's harsh to single out festivals when the reality is that the music industry as a whole is gender biased on genre lines.

Tried to sell out Tallaght stadium a while back and failed though, that was with quality support for their anniversary if my memory is right. Cancelled due to poor sales. That was a surprise.

Honestly, it hasn't been top of my list of shit to attend to, though I'd rather it were higher.
I haven't updated the adverts.ie page from the original trade, perhaps a blog would work better but fuck blogs and who reads blogs?
My head is melted lately, constantly distracted, getting fuck all done but 'feeling' busy.
Lots of pointless, constantly changing busy work going on in my head.
I need to get my hands on some:

These guys specialise in Adult ADD if you're only vaguely half-joking, Riggs. I've been trying to work up the courage to visit them for ~6 months now.

Originally posted by hotspur View PostI saw Silver Linings Playbook last night for the first time. I had heard of it but somehow managed to avoid knowing it had been such a massive Oscars success or what it was about. I was blown away by it, amazing film imo.
I have also concluded that Bradley Cooper is an incredible actor, whereas until a month ago I had a vague sense he annoyed me. Probably based entirely on my aversion to American Hustle.

Hitch mentioning the Bord Gais €100 credit thing came to mind, as my brain scurries to find shit to do to avoid doing the shit I ought to be doing.
I see that Electric Ireland will charge me 50 quid for leaving them within a contract (very tempted to tell them to fuck right off on that one). So would still be +50 quid I suppose.
I've sent Bord Gais an email to ask them if they are likely to extend this €100 offer beyond it's current April deadline, I highly doubt to get any sort of answer that is useful back from them.
I might make a list of stuff I have done in the last 48 hours to avoid doing what I ought to be doing:
- Attempted reorganising drawers that are chock full of stuff, no need to do it at the moment and really made little progress.
- Looked into switching Gas and Electric providers, despite that I am 'mid contract'. Why the fuck you need contracts for gas and electric, with all their stupid pricing options and discounts, it's akin to trying to work out what pizza deal is your best option.
- Extensive research into who invented the fizzy cola bottle - I still can't find out. It's Britain's favorite sweet too.
- Tried in vain to help MSN fix her curry
- BBV'd MSN's curry
- Helped organise a one minute silence in honour of said ruined curry.
