Members Singin' Dave Posted January 16, 2006 Members Posted January 16, 2006 Seems to me that the point of that article is playing songs with good old boy, soot stompin drinking themes that people can sing along to is the ticket to creating a good ring that gets you booked again. Hmmm...not exactly news but here are a few my cover band plays that seem to get people flowin' One Way Out I Got LoadedPassenger SideOne Bourban, One Scotch and One BeerAny good hoppin' blues tune (we're in Chicago)
Members Outrider Posted January 16, 2006 Members Posted January 16, 2006 Gimmicky Idea.... Have a portable breathalyzer up at the stage and yell out people's blood-alcohol content over the PA between songs. The person with the highest BAC by midnight gets a free cab ride home.

OKay...here's why that doesn't work. #1) What about the rest of them that got beaten in the BAC contest? Who's driving THEM home? #2) A lot of places have rules about serving customers that are visibly inebriated, for fear of lawsuits. Your idea would actually decrease alcohol sales. Here's why: If you announce their BAC, the bar can't say they didn't know the guy they were serving was too drunk...the next thing you know he's driving home and kills a bus full of nuns and grandmothers.

Well, maybe, but then again, it could be a busload of lawyers, politicians, telemarketers and used car salespeople...in which case, no jury would convict...
