But, as far as building a fan base goes - no one gets excited about seeling a band that is playing tonight and two days from now and fouyr days from now. You don't want people who want to see you feeling as though they can see you anytime. Or you winde up playing to the same three people every show. You have to play the game a little bit. Less obtainible is better than constantly obtainible. That is true in all things. That's why Christmas use to be so special - because Santa only came once a year. Practice loud so you can get your rocks off. Gig once every two to three weeks.
