Soap Box


Here at WP we have always tried to put an emphasis on quality shows to maintain an active music scene with fun, talented musicians and exciting performances. There are a handful of cover bands in the area and beyond who share the same creed as we do. We salute you!
It's a tough economic time for everyone and us working musicians are doing our best to play great shows and make our living doing what we love. We appreciate the people who know talented bands from the MANY "Cookie Cutter Cover Bands." Unfortunately these "CCCBs" make it tough for the rest of us to earn a living. Cover bands who are willing to play for nothing or next to nothing with a smile don't realize that they not only are they devaluing themselves, but musicians in general who earn their living playing music. This is killing the scene. In the meantime remember, spend your money wisely when you head out to see a band. We hope that this economy turns and these dime a dozen acts fall by the wayside so the true professionals can get back to work.
