Well actually I meant that you book further ahead there and that yes, a band needs a little cache to get a gig. I don't see being selective as a problem. I'd say, in fact I do say the same thing about the Cradle.

Wow, wanna elaborate?

If you're suggesting that more bands hear 'no' than yes, well...that's
true. In fact, I just checked our online booking address and since
Monday, we've gotten 46 emails about shows. At most, we could only do
12 bands in that time-frame, so that does mean 34 of those acts (or
about 3 out of every 4) are gonna get rejected based on pure lack of
availability (ie: demand for shows greatly exceeds supply of
opportunities.)
