Ok being we are in a state of depression, I feel that one of the best way we might be able to pin things down for some of the less fortunate is to help them locate a gigging Area, for example I live just outside downtown Columbia, South Carolina and for live performance it is not good, Charleston,Sc is a better place for work as a musician, including international members , I meani f someone might consider moving to the UK or Germany if the work is there , also if anyone can suggest a method to help others get gigs please post it, I have had 2 emails from members asking me if I knew of any bands looking for Bass players so please ad all you can, list the internet/paper or site or good working area or any Idea's that might help
