I was on the Program Board at my University that booked lectures and concerts for the students.
There was a good local band named Romeo Void that we booked for a free NOON show at the Student Union Amphitheater.
The Romeo Void band members asked us if the opening band playing some shows with them could also do a short set since they were a new band from Ireland trying to get some exposure.
The price was right (FREE), and so we added the Irish band on...it turned out that the name of the band was U2.
I guess you could say that was a lesson learned the easy way...
? Always be ready to collaborate
? Give good people a break
? Take calculated chances
