You could barely hear the band at all.<P>I can smile about it now, but at the time it was terrible.

i was talking to a buddy in detroit and found out some of weller's dates were cancelled due to low ticket sales.<P>in detroit they actualled kept moving the show to smaller venues.  the last being a club the size (if not smaller) than the old black cat.  guess people don't appreciate good music anymore.
