The problem I have with these "specialty" venues (the restaurants,
laundromats, etc.) is usually just the sound. Maybe I'm not punk rock
enough (I play guitar, but also accordion) but sometimes if there
isn't a good PA and a competent sound guy, I totally turn off. If
these places could get good systems, work on their rooms to sound
good, then I'd be into it, but until then it just gives me the vibe
that those places make the actual music a low priority.

That's of course extremely general, some places do just fine, and I
know good equipment is pricey, but it certainly is a factor in my
deciding which shows I'll go to.
