Count
Dante shatters attendance records! |
|
|
With numbers just being made available, the Count Dante and the BDFS performance on WEDNESDAY May 29th at the Pound SF shattered all previous live gates for a Wednesday night at the club with an astounding 16 paid attendance! These staggering numbers are sure to set the San Francisco live music scene on its ear as Count Dante's excess of success at the Pound has created a whole new rock and roll landscape in the City by the Bay. |

Despite the Count's taking a lion's share of the glory for this incredible achievement, many experts also point to the skyrocketing popularity of opening act and def comedy stylings of Hiroshi Hasegawa for this show's record setting gate.
Count Dante and the BDFS will be playing again at what is reported to be the very last Punk Rock Happy Hour ever at the CW Saloon (5th and Folsom, San Francisco) on Friday, August 9th with Los Cerveceros. Still, The Count and company will have to go a long way to break their high water mark set at their May show at the Pound.
