TUNE IT OR DIE!!
Once upon a time, in a basement not so far from here, there lived a band.. called WitcherCreek.....and for 4 yrs they toiled...writing songs, and drinking many beers in the process. Fun was had by all..until one day..the drummer, Chris, proclaimed..." I need a break"...sadness ensued. But we carried on........for 4 wks..
Then, the guitar player, Paul, proclaimed "Alas.... I have met a fair maiden and I am relocating to North Carolina with the her..in the hopes of getting hitched some day" once again much sadness occurred....now alone in the Shallow Palace....Steve and Gracie proclaimed " Crraappp!!!!.... Now what?"...... So, we bought some beer and wine, learned how to operate the Yamaha AW16G and started laying tracks.....so here we are..
Shallow Palace Project was created in September of 2005 by Steve and Ruth (Gracie) Payne

Attention Erie area bands: We played Rockees Place in Lawrence Park, had a very good turn out, the patrons had nothing but good things to say but the owner refused to pay the agreed minimum. In my opinion, if you're thinking playing there you may want to reconsider unless you don't mind playing for free. Use your own discretion. Disclaimer: Just exercising my first amendment right. I've been in this business for 30 years and I'm not trying to tell anyone what to do, its just a "for your information" (FYI) thing. He has been a bar owner for less than a year and in my opinion, he has alot to learn.
