Why so expensive? Nothing turns me off more than a new artist (or any artist
actually) charging so much for a show in a small vanue.  In addition to pissing
off fans, you completely eliminate the possibility of picking up any new fans
who stop in because they're curious.

I regularly pay $5-7 to see much more established acts (for example $5 for Nirvana
a few months ago, $5 for Mudhoney and Superchunk, etc.) and would never pay 
this to see Happy.  That's too bad because I like what I read here about her
and would gladly pay a reasonable amount to see her live if she played in this
area.
