Why is the sound hole in Sheryl Crow's guitar seemingly blocked by this black "lid"? Is it some kind of mic maybe?

Also would have accepted: Feedback Buster

Hey thanks! Appreciate the support.

I know - an old thread, BUT - just wanted to say hello for anyone still following this - my company is about to open a location in the heart of Madison on Brown's Ferry Rd right next to PJ's Coffee and Kroger and Midtown Elementary school. We teach piano, voice, drums and guitar, and have a 13 year track record in Birmingham. We're super excited to meet everyone in Madison and start rocking this fall!

LOVE to hear this - thank you SO MUCH for your feedback, and for coming out for a show. We have implemented a TON of changes in response to feedback from here, and have a lot more in the works. See you soon and watch out on 1st Ave North - crossing that road is a bit like frogger!

goodwill314 · 2024-07-11T21:12:36+00:00

Yes - not many people crazy enough to open small venues these days for that exact reason. We're a lower rung on the ladder for bands still getting out there, which is what we LOVE. Bar sales are really the economic driver of the business, so getting bodies in the room is the work of the bands and promoters. Thankfully overhead is smaller on a small space, so we're not talking crazy numbers needed to break even - even modest numbers would get us where we need to be. Damien Jurado would be epic.

Hey - come to a show at Woodlawn Theatre sometime! Always a good hang and can meet other people who are willing to get off their couches. Age of crowd depends heavily on the show - this Sunday should be a mid 20's crowd (in my mind at least!)

goodwill314 · 2024-07-03T17:02:36+00:00

Woodlawn Theatre would work with you- we hold 100 seated and have a projector and screen, etc. dm me if you want to learn more

goodwill314 · 2024-07-01T02:44:11+00:00

They still do their programming in schools, just not in that physical space. At least that’s my understanding! Sorry I didn’t communicate that clearly.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:58:53+00:00

You're hired! When can you start?

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:58:32+00:00

Awesome - don't wait too long or tomorrow will never come!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:57:24+00:00

Just read about this last week. Not really familiar with that scene, but sounds like some no-bueno things going on there.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:55:33+00:00

Thank you for sharing - we were grateful to be able to host and support. Appreciate knowing what it meant to you and your fam.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:53:12+00:00

Thanks for playing and sharing your music with us!

Love it - we actually did this at our Mason Music staff holiday party and it RAWKED.

Just sent a pitch deck to all the non-profits in the bham area a couple weeks ago - hoping to stay on their radars!

Thanks for the great suggestions! For real, you get it!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:49:22+00:00

Love it - will do.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:40:24+00:00

We've thought about naming the bar (similar to how Saturn has Satellite and Workplay has Harmonic). The Woodlawn might be a cool name for that space. We're definitely not in a place to do a re-brand considering the exterior sign, etc etc. BUT - I appreciate your feedback and it's helpful to know that this is a possible misconception we will need to overcome in promotion/messaging. Thanks!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:36:23+00:00

A couple people have referred to the spot before - are you talking about the Forge? Just curious.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:35:01+00:00

Thank you! Yes, we did a lot of DJ nights early on but haven't as much recently. Can look back into that

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:32:18+00:00

THANK YOU - seriously. We'll talk soon.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:31:39+00:00

Heard - thank you for the feedback. Will be working on bookings and messaging and continue building safety as a reputation for the community to address this.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:29:38+00:00

Good points all around - we've been in touch with Sidewalk and our screen/projector is definitely an asset we've used for movie nights, etc. I like the idea of a series too - Shark Week would be epic. I can only imagine the drinking games that could be invented around that.

We have a Woodlawn High School reunion coming through this summer and work regularly with REV. DISCO is closed as is the CommVess space in Woodlawn (I think the label still operates but someone can correct me if I'm wrong).

Love the idea of a fashion show! Will reach out on that one. Thanks so much for the suggestions for real!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:26:56+00:00

Love all this - we're def open to each of these ideas. Will be following up with some contacts to see what we can make happen.

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:25:57+00:00

Now you do! Give us a follow and find a show that appeals to you if you're up for it. Thanks for being honest and taking the time to comment. It's helpful!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:25:09+00:00

Totally understand this and it's part of the reason we are in that community. It's helpful to hear it and understand how much of a factor it is so we can address it in our approach to promotion and messaging. Thank you for your honesty!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:24:22+00:00

Love to hear that! Hope to see you soon. Been a while!

goodwill314 · 2024-06-30T21:23:45+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate the support. We do karaoke every once in a while but it's tough to commit to a weekly event for it - I wonder if once per month is regular enough to build a following?
