Well, you figure he gets no business as it is, that was a bad move on the club owners part to schedule something on a day that no one comes out, you know? Especially during football season. He should have scheduled the jam on a busier day. It's easy…
It's a shame how common these 2 week cancellations occur. I remember my "Soul Sensation" weekly lasted a whopping three weeks before the club put the kibosh on our gig. That was on Wednesdays on the Southside, which can be a pretty busy night. If a…

BIOGRAPHY:
Vocalist, songwriter and rhythm guitarist based in Pittsburgh, PA. I've been performing ever since I was a little girl, in choir, talent shows, and as soon as I got into high school, all kinds of bands, ranging from metal, to punk, to blues. I'm currently the backup & "ethereal" vocalist for Bonfire Night, Pittsburgh's only dark ages heavy metal band, fronted by Chuck Owston. Aside from Bonfire Night, I do the occasional pickup gig as a solo artist, and I'm currently working on my own material for an up-coming album release, hopefully coming out within the next year. I've shared the stage with some of the greatest talents in the city, such as Norman Nardini, Wil E. Tri, Shari Richards, Bill Toms, Bubs McKeg, Warren King, Kenny Blake, The Mystic Knights, Ms. Freddye & Blue Faze, and many, many more.
Recordings I've done:
"Baby I Love You" b/w "Have Love Will Travel" (2008) produced by Norman Nardini
"The Bonfire Chronicles: Rarities & Outtakes" by Bonfire Night (2009)
"Blood & Thunder, Fire & Steel" by Bonfire Night (release date TBA)
CLASSIFIEDS: I am in search of,, (or) I have available ,, (equipment, musicians, services, etc)
I would say a band but I'm finding out the hard way that Pittsburgh really isn't the best place to start a punk rock band these days. But if you're into that, by all means send me a message...
* I also write songs. If you're looking for material or someone to collaborate with, please contact me.
* And, last but not least, I do makeup application from time to time, and my focus is stage and performance makeup. Looking to build up my portfolio, so I wouldn't charge anything. My email address is ksimonemusic(at)gmail.com
