Probably is to be fair - Ive had countless bands who sell out Glasgow and Edinburgh (and in some cases even Dundee) but get 100 odd in Aberdeen. Obviously bigger cities mean more people but even shows in small cities in England are far better attended. A lot of the time if youre not on Radio One at the time or on the front cover of NME youre doomed - eg Lightspeed Champion had sold like 20 advance then he was on the cover and it nearly sold out in the next couple of weeks! Madness!
Not putting a downer on it - it just makes me wanna work all the harder in Aberdeen to get the bands out there and get the crowds in!!! Its a challenge but a good one!
