Band: the British IBM
Venue: St John's College, Cambridge
Date: 16/06/13
Audience: Empty
Set: Cannibal, 3 Years, Animal
Notes: Headlining a college ball. Unload and soundcheck at 5pm, told our stage time is 11.20pm which for this kind of event is reasonable, go home and sleep for a bit. Get back to venue at 10.30pm to watch the support act play to virtually an empty room - quite a big empty room too. Eventually go on stage 11.50pm, told the live music has to stop at midnight. Play 3 songs and have to leave the stage. A day later, I'm still confused as to how badly this was organised - I'm a busy man, as individuals in the band we're busy people - that was seven hours of our lives wasted by absolute incompetence. Time is tight to do everything I want to do over the next few months, I really didn't need this.
