But right now, joining us in studio, we have Nick Pino, someone who I've not seen in a very long time.

Speaker 1: But Nick is very active in the music industry and, of course, the owner of Last Chance Booking. And Nick, welcome back. Thank you, Matt.

Speaker 7: It's been way too long.

Speaker 1: It's been a very long time since we talked, my friend. But the reason you are here today is, of course, you are back in the game, shall we say?

Speaker 7: I am. The official return date in the first show is set for April 2nd at the Bungalow Bar and Grill right here in Manchester, actually.

Speaker 1: I still haven't been there, but everything I hear is really good. So that's going to be, what's the date again? April what?

Speaker 7: April 2nd of 2027. That's our first official show back.

Speaker 1: Okay. It gives you a lot of lead time, too. Now, who's going to be on the show?

Speaker 7: We're actually now booking for that. I just started as of today. This is the first announcement that LC Show's Last Chance Booking is back, actually.

Speaker 1: Okay, excellent. Now, when was the last time, because like I said, you're getting back into it. So when was the last time that you were active with this, with Last Chance Booking?

Speaker 7: The last show I did was actually way back in 2019. Jeez, wow.

Speaker 1: Do you remember what the last show was?

Speaker 7: Uh, I believe it was a split with, um, it was up at, I want to say Charlie's Hill.

Speaker 1: Okay.

Speaker 7: And I know there was a two day festival. We had a rap and hip hop night.

Speaker 8: Okay.

Speaker 7: Um, and then we also had a metal show as well.

Speaker 1: Okay. Um, And then, so, so why the, uh, I mean, did the pandemic have something to do with it? Because obviously, you know, you talk about 2019, we know what, uh. Yeah.

Speaker 7: Around then things kind of went downhill. Um, I also moved to Florida for a little bit. Um, so I've been moving a lot around the last. few years and just getting my feet set so I could come back.

Speaker 1: And why Fathom Farewell? That's one of the songs you asked us to play this morning. And you're not, just to be clear, you're not in the band, right? I'm not in the band, no. But it's obviously, is that a band that you've worked with or you intend to work with?

Speaker 2: Yeah.

Speaker 7: It is. I want to say they go way back to, uh, when Rocco's was still here in Manchester.

Speaker 1: I remember Rocco's vividly.

Speaker 7: Yep.

Speaker 1: With the wall of mirrors behind the stage.

Speaker 4: Yep.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 7: It was always crazy there some night.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 1: Yeah. It could be.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 1: Um, so, uh, I mean, why now? Why come back now? Well, it'll be 2027. What is it that got you back into the game?

Speaker 7: I feel like I'm just more back to a point in my life where I'm able to commit the time, the effort, because booking shows, let's face it, it takes a lot of time. There's a lot that goes into it, especially as a solo promoter.

Speaker 1: Now, tell me about that, because when I've interviewed you in the past, and again, wow, it's hard to believe it was so long ago, but it really was, you had other people that you were working with. At one point, you were working with Scott Perry.

Speaker 10: Yes.

Speaker 1: Did you guys, wait, was it you and Scott, too, who were doing the TSA podcast?

Speaker 7: Scott was doing that, but he did come on with me.

Speaker 1: Okay, because Scott was doing, yeah, TSA, the siren agency podcast. Um, but that was separate from what you were doing, right?

Speaker 7: That was separate.

Speaker 1: Okay. But you guys, but I did interview you guys together at one point.

Speaker 6: Yep.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 7: We've done a lot of work together.

Speaker 6: Yeah.

Speaker 7: Scott Perry. Um, there's also New Hampshire booking. Um, if you know, Richie Downs.

Speaker 5: Yep.

Speaker 7: Um, another familiar face.

Speaker 9: Yep.

Speaker 7: Um, and he's actually working with the bungalow here in Manchester now. Yep.

Speaker 9: Yep.

Speaker 1: Um, So you're doing this by yourself this time, right? Yes. You are last chance booking, so to speak. It's me, myself, and I, yes.

Speaker 6: Okay.

Speaker 1: And why, I mean, is that a decision that you made consciously, or is it just kind of how things have worked out?

Speaker 7: It's honestly how things have worked out. Honestly, you know, I'm coming into it slow with like a couple shows, and I just find it easier to work by myself. And then if I need some help, I can bring people in.

Speaker 6: Yeah.

Speaker 1: For people who don't know what you do exactly, because obviously, you know, a lot of people in the scene, both locally and in the music industry broadly, you know, already understand this. But, you know, for someone who doesn't know anything about how the music business, you know, the business of music works and how the industry works, like, what is it that you do exactly as a... Because, I mean, you know, you say booking shows, but you're really the promoter, right? You're... I mean, in terms of being a concert promoter, what does that entail?

Speaker 1: For the layman, what does that entail?

Speaker 7: A lot of it entails reaching out, emailing different artists from around the country. Sometimes we have artists that are out on tour from across the country that'll reach out to me. And if I'm able to book the date, then I have to reach out, secure a venue. secure the date, and then go from there. As soon as we get everything official, I start booking, reaching out to the local bands here in New Hampshire and surrounding areas. And then come the day of the show, you know, after promoting and doing everything I can to get the word out, I run the show from Doors.

Speaker 7: to loading in the bands. Pretty much everything falls on me to make sure it runs smoothly.

Speaker 1: It may be too soon for this question, but so far, because you're just getting back in, but so far from just getting back in, is there anything you've noticed right off that's just kind of different about how this all works or is the process basically the same?

Speaker 7: Honestly, what I've noticed is that there are so many bands that I've worked with over the years that they're just not together now. So the hardest part for me is really finding those groups that are still together, that are out there playing and just getting familiar with all the new venues.

Speaker 9: Yep. Yep.

Speaker 1: Well, one of the bands, so we'll play another song because one of the bands that you sent me, was a track by Actor Observer. And it's funny because when I saw the email, I remembered Actor Observer from... So I don't think I've met any of the guys in the band. ever, but I've been a fan of theirs, you know, from afar again, I've never met them, uh, because of you.

Speaker 9: Yes.

Speaker 1: Because I became aware of them originally because of you, because when I interviewed you before they were one of the bands we featured. So I was thrilled to see that they're still together. I, you know, because as you said, a lot of bands have come and gone.

Speaker 7: I was surprised. Actually, I only learned that they were together when I went to see The Used in Boston, and it just happened that night. Actor Observer was open, and I remember booking one of their first shows.

Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1: So I was very happy about that, because I think these guys are a great band. I do need to get them on. Maybe you can help me with that, put me in touch with them. But let's play this track. This is called Found Wanting, and the band is called Actor Observer.

Speaker 9: And what you think you want Is kept locked behind a door And I'm searching.

Speaker 2: For a key.

Speaker 9: Till you forget what it was for Till all you know is wanting And constantly for more.

Speaker 2: I didn't know that this feeling had a half-life.

Speaker 9: Gone in the currents. Water swept away Left to find its home At the bottom of a drain These tributaries yield diminishing returns But it's a lesson that I will.

Speaker 2: Never learn And so I drift further.

Speaker 9: Down So far from where I thought I'd be by now.

Speaker 3: And I admit, though I'm not proud I can see I did this to myself Ashamed to.

Speaker 1: Say that I've found comfort in.

Speaker 9: Defeat It's so much easier to drown than it is to swim upstream.

Speaker 3: This feeling had a.

Speaker 2: Half-life Got in the God bless.

Speaker 9: I can't carry on this way So pull my feet up from this dried up riverbank I can't.

Speaker 2: Carry on this way.

Speaker 9: So pull my feet up from this dried up riverbank.

Speaker 2: Take my nails into the grave.

Speaker 9: I'll forge a new path.

Speaker 2: I'll forge a new path.

Speaker 1: I love it. That is called Found Wanting. The band is Actor Observer. And we've got Nick Pino from Last Chance Booking here with us in studio. And Nick, you and I were talking off air, and I'm glad you validated this for me so I know I'm not losing my mind. Because I said to you, I could swear that Actor Observer, that their name was a little different in that it was originally, it had a slash between actor and observer. So the way, you know, you would say Actor Observer, but the way it was spelled, it was Actor Observer.

Speaker 1: slash observer and they did take that out probably if i had to guess and if i you know if i ever get them on the show i'll ask them about this but if i had to guess they probably found their name just being you know screwed up on posters and flyers everywhere and we're like let's just get rid of the slash it's more trouble than it's worth if i had to guess.

Speaker 7: That that is yeah a good guess actually you know yeah i if you don't, I'll have to ask him sometime here.

Speaker 1: It's like, uh, the band 30, you know, everybody knows the band 38 special, you know, hold on loosely and all that from the eighties. Um, they, at one point, the, the way it was originally spelled was because it was, you know, like the name of the gun. So it was 0.38 special. And they eventually, they dropped the, the point, And just because it was.

Speaker 7: I can see how easily it could be missed.

Speaker 6: Yeah.

Speaker 1: And this was while they were on a major label, you know, but it just got to a point, a point where it was like, you know, the, we don't need the point because it's just getting in the way and people are, are getting it wrong all the time. But, um, So, Nick, how do you find the bands that you want to work with? Obviously, you're a big fan of Actor Observer and you've worked with them. What is kind of your criteria in terms of artists that you work with with concert promotion?

Speaker 7: Generally, I look for artists who at least have, you know, a couple decent recordings. It doesn't have to be a full album.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 10: But I.

Speaker 7: I have to have something to be able to promote.

Speaker 1: Right.

Speaker 7: So although I'm open to new bands, I love booking first time shows. Um, the one thing I do usually require is that I have at least one or two decent songs so I can put out and promote them on the show.

Speaker 9: Right. Right.

Speaker 1: Um, So if somebody wants to work with you, what's the best way to reach you if they're interested in having you book a show with them?

Speaker 7: The best way to reach out right now is by email at lastchance2021takeoveratgmail. com.

Speaker 1: Lastchance2021takeoveratgmail. com.

Speaker 10: All right.

Speaker 1: And where does the name come from, Last Chance Booking?

Speaker 7: So, believe it or not, I started this way back in 2008. I was still in high school.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 7: And myself and Taylor Gagnon, I don't know if you remember him from way back when.

Speaker 1: The name is familiar to me. Of course, Gagnon's such a common last name around here.

Speaker 7: It is, but I originally started with him booking shows And that's what we came up with.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 7: And then over the years, as kind of the whole crew changed, we went through a lot of changes, expanding. In the end, it ended up just being me. And, you know, I stuck with it. We already had the logo. And actually, I got a tattoo now.

Speaker 8: Oh, you do?

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 7: Of the little LC shows diamond. Yeah.

Speaker 9: Okay.

Speaker 1: Well, now you're stuck with it.

Speaker 7: Yeah, stuff for life. That's why I had to come back, actually.

Speaker 1: Well, there you go. There you go. By the way, so you said you went to Florida for a while? I did.

Speaker 7: Yeah, I moved down there. with my sister to just get away from everything up here, you know?

Speaker 1: Did you get involved in the music scene while you were in Florida? Did you do anything down there?

Speaker 7: Unfortunately not. I was only down there for about maybe six months or so.

Speaker 1: Oh, okay. Gotcha.

Speaker 7: So before I could really get set up and... I really don't know much around Florida. So, you know, it would have taken a lot more. It's actually easier for me to come back and start booking shows up here and then expand down there later on.

Speaker 1: Gotcha. So what is the skill set that you have that is required for what you do? Because, um, and I, and I kind of probably can guess some of it because I've, I've also done what you, I haven't been in that part of the game for a while, but I used to do, um, but I used to book a lot of shows back in the day. Um, like what, for, and I asked this question too, partly for anyone who's interested in getting into being a promoter, that, that side of the business, like what, what is kind of the skillset that you feel that you need and that you possess to be able to do this successfully?

Speaker 1: Honestly, you, you.

Speaker 7: Just have to be really driven. You have to, you know, put in a lot of hours. Um, it's a lot of caffeine, but let's say we run on caffeine because there are some nights I'll go into a venue on show day and you know, the middle of the afternoon and I'm the last one to leave. So you got to be able to go long hours. You got to be able to multitask.

Speaker 1: You got to be really organized.

Speaker 7: Organized. You know, you can't just walk in there day of a show and expect everything to run itself. You got to direct all the traffic.

Speaker 10: Yeah.

Speaker 1: And he is a good way of putting it. And you have to be able to communicate clearly too, because that's the biggest problem. As someone who's worked on both sides of it, the biggest complaint that a lot of musicians have is about promoters who don't communicate clearly. Although those horror stories that you hear often come more from festival settings. Oh, big time, yeah. I don't know how many guests I've had on the show who've just had terrible... You know, festivals are great because you get in front of a huge audience who might not otherwise see you, so you get to expand your fan base very quickly.

Speaker 1: And it's the ultimate networking opportunity, all the industry people that you meet, too. So festivals are great, but man, I've heard some horror stories over the years about just more communication at festivals. I've had it happen.

Speaker 7: I've even had... touring bands drop off last minute. Obviously, you know, there are circumstances where there's nothing they can do. You know, you get a van breakdown, anything can happen when you're out on the road.

Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. The shows that you put together, do you try to. Do you try to keep it so that all the bands are kind of in a similar genre, or do you like to sort of expand out? I used to, when I would do shows, like back in the day when I would book shows at Millie's Tavern, for example, and it might be four bands or five bands, I took some criticism for this and some credit, depending on the point of view of the person telling me their opinions. about how I approached it. But, um, but I would, uh, sometimes I would really try to just mix it up, you know, and, and, and take some risks.

Speaker 1: Um, it wasn't like there was a ton of money to be made to begin with, with a show like that, you know? So, you know, why not take some chances? And again, not everyone agreed. Some people did, but I mean, like, how do you approach that?

Speaker 7: Honestly, I've always been a fan of mixing it at least to an extent, you know, that way it's, it appeals to more people and you're not wrong there. Honestly, if you want to make money, um, booking and promoting shows, it's very hard. It's difficult. Yeah. Um, for me, it's always been more of a hobby, you know, I try to break even, but, um, it's kind of like gambling really.

Speaker 1: It is very much like gambling. I mean, even live nation, you know, not that we should ever shed a single tear for it, but even live nation loses money on some shows, you know?

Speaker 7: Oh, it happens all the time. So, you know, you, you've got to go into it knowing and having that, that money there. And that's what actually makes, you know, myself different from other promoters. I'm, I'm not backed by anybody. Any show I do, it's self-funded, so it falls back to me.

Speaker 1: All right, so in your experience, so this is really a two-part question. Part one, well, here, let's get the bad part out of the way first. So part one, I want to ask you, what's the worst experience you've ever had with a show, or at least as much as you're willing to say about it? And then, but then the part two, well, I want to know your best experience, but let's get the worst one out of the way. What's your worst experience ever booking a show? All right.

Speaker 7: So I had a two day fest up in Lebanon, Maine. It was actually at Charlie's Hill where we'll be going to April 4th.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 7: And, um, At the time, there was a sound guy that was absolutely horrible. It was a hip hop night and we couldn't get the headliners on. And I just got so frustrated. The headliners, they dropped off.

Speaker 1: What do you mean you couldn't get them on?

Speaker 7: He couldn't even run the sound to get the backtracking and everything up and running so the groups could play.

Speaker 1: Was it a sound guy who's not used to that type of scenario?

Speaker 9: No.

Speaker 7: It may have been.

Speaker 1: Sound guys can be stubborn.

Speaker 7: Maybe he was more into the metal nights and stuff, but I'm not sure.

Speaker 1: I've seen that in real time happen, where you've got to notice. I love sound. I've run sound myself. It's very hard. And there's a lot. I've met a lot of great sound guys. but there, there, there are those sound guys who just are, if they find themselves in a position where they have to do something, they're not used to, they're a little mad about it.

Speaker 7: Yeah.

Speaker 1: I've seen that play out right in front of me.

Speaker 7: And there's actually, so sound is one thing you can't get wrong. So let me just say this. Um, I do not run sound. That is the one thing I don't do.

Speaker 8: Yeah.

Speaker 7: Um, but back to the point there, um, So eventually I got so pissed off, I had a can of Mountain Dew, and we were arguing, and I go up and I just flash this guy in the face with my Mountain Dew there.

Speaker 1: Oh, jeez. And that's how the night ended, you know? I was going to say, that definitely had to be how it ended, because I'm sure nothing else happened beyond that, at least nothing good.

Speaker 2: No, no.

Speaker 7: Thankfully it didn't get worse.

Speaker 1: You know, there was enough people to pull us apart, but...

Speaker 1: All right. So that was the worst one.

Speaker 7: That was definitely one of the worst ones, you know.

Speaker 1: Oh, one of the worst ones?

Speaker 7: One of the worst.

Speaker 1: You got something else that's on par with that?

Speaker 7: So I might have mentioned this before, but.

Speaker 7: Back in Seabrook, New Hampshire, I believe it was a Lions show.

Speaker 1: Okay.

Speaker 7: The sound guy was obnoxiously drunk. We showed up, half the PA system was out.

Speaker 10: Oh, wow.

Speaker 7: And, you know, I was renting equipment anyways.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 7: So, you know, I could have gotten what I needed. So we showed up with half a sound system there. Oh, no.

Speaker 1: That I've never had happen to me. I've never seen a drunk sound guy drunk. That's terrible. Yeah, that'll ruin the night. All right, what's your best experience?

Speaker 7: All right, so one of my best, I'm going to say, is it's actually a band called It Lies Within. They're out of Flint, Michigan, actually. Unfortunately, they're no longer together. But I'd say my first tour, kind of booking a couple dates with them, their vocalist, Zach, he was just really inspirational. And, you know, whenever I was down, he kept me going and really... you know, he was always positive with things. So we always had a lot of good shows. We went out, had a lot of good times, and I never had one bad night with them.

Speaker 1: Good.

Speaker 7: It was actually a tour with them that I once burned cereal. Huh? I one time burned cereal when I was on a tour with It Lies Within. It was them and the Party Fowl. And as like a tour manager, I had to make problems go away. Well, one of the guys from the party foul told me the marshmallows in their cereal were not big enough. So me being dumb and young, then I put the cereal with the marshmallows in the microwave and kind of forgot about it. And it, it turned into really good rice crispies for a 10th of a second before turning to rock hard cement.

Speaker 7: Um, So that's the story of how I burnt cereal when I was trying to be a tour manager with them, actually.

Speaker 1: Okay. The marshmallows in the microwave, does that make them bigger?

Speaker 7: That was my thought and logic, but honestly, no, it does not make them bigger. It just turns them into plastic.

Speaker 1: Like yeah all righty that didn't go where i expected no you never know you never know you never know all right well very good very good do you have a uh favorite uh artist to work with like an all-time favorite whom you've worked with who is just amazing.

Speaker 7: Um, I will say I have had one group, um, abandoned by bears. They're actually all the way from Sweden.

Speaker 6: Yeah.

Speaker 7: Um, but honestly, I can't really pick a favorite. It's, it's hard because there's so many great artists. There's so many out there that just put so much work and dedication and just, unfortunately it doesn't really go anywhere. Um, And that gets back to, you know, getting back into things nowadays. It's hard to figure out who's still together.

Speaker 1: Right, right. Well, we're very glad that Actor Observer is still together. And at the end of our conversation, we're going to play another track that they, apparently it's a collab, as they say. I don't know if that term was being used broadly yet. The last time I interviewed you all those years ago, a collab. That's what the young people say.

Speaker 7: It was a long time ago, so that might have been before those days.

Speaker 1: But they did, Actor Observer did a song with God's Eyes, another great band that you sent me called Means Well, and we're going to play that in a couple of minutes. But Nick, it's wonderful to see you. It's been a long time. It really has.

Speaker 7: I never forgot about you, and then when I was coming back, You're actually the first and only person that I thought of. Matt Connerton.

Speaker 1: Well, thank you.

Speaker 7: I got to find out if he's still doing anything and come make the official announcement here with you.

Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. Well, I'm very glad you did. I'm very glad this worked out and that you're back at it. Um, and, uh, you know, and, and please, you know, send us whatever, whatever music you want to send us. Cause you always send really good, really good stuff. Um, there are at least, you know, you certainly did back then. So I'm, I'm excited to see, um, some of these bands that you're going to be working with going forward and how these shows go. I'm sure they'll go great. And, uh, you know, it's, it's, I'm glad you're back in the scene and back doing what you're doing.

Speaker 1: So thank you.

Speaker 10: Yeah.

Speaker 7: I'll definitely send you some more. Um, actually right now there, I don't know if you heard about it. Guys like us, like Anna Safira, all of them are doing like a one-time comeback show. Oh, wow. It's not one I'm promoting or anything. Yeah, yeah. But that sold out in a day at Bungalow and was moved to Hampton. And unfortunately, it sold out before I found out about it.

Speaker 1: Oh, no kidding.

Speaker 7: But those are some old bands I used to work with.

Speaker 1: Anna Safira is great. Did I meet them through you? I've interviewed them a bunch of times.

Speaker 7: I believe so.

Speaker 1: The last time would have been quite a few years ago, but I think I've interviewed them like four or five times over the years.

Speaker 7: Yeah. Yeah. They, they honestly, they were one we worked with quite a bit. Unfortunately, you know, they're not around. Um, if you remember ballast, they're very old.

Speaker 1: I had them on the show.

Speaker 7: They're playing, uh, that kind of one-off reunion show as well.

Speaker 1: Um, This will sound weird and random, but Ballast has actually been to my apartment because there was a short time. It was before I was doing this show here at WMNH, but there was a very brief time when I was actually interviewing the apartment Jenny and I live at. We had bands come over and I'd set up my equipment there and we would interview them there. I would interview them there in the kitchen. So they've been in my kitchen.

Speaker 3: Wow.

Speaker 1: So random. I had forgotten until you mentioned them that I had ever even interviewed them. Yeah. At the apartment.

Speaker 7: I think possibly the show that I booked with them, I may have still been in high school when I booked them. Because I started in 2008 when I was still in high school.

Speaker 9: Yeah.

Speaker 7: Yeah.

Speaker 1: Oh, wow.

Speaker 9: Geez. Wow. Yeah.

Speaker 1: Ballast. Um, no, it's cool though about, and I remember spies like us, but I don't know if I've ever interviewed them. I might've though. Cause I w the name, I definitely remember the name. I may have interviewed them. I've interviewed a lot of people, Nick. It's hard to remember.

Speaker 7: It all blends together. There's, there's so many becomes a blur so many years.

Speaker 6: Yeah.

Speaker 1: Yeah. It really does. It really does. Um, and we'll watch it. Turn out that I'm wrong, that it wasn't ballast to the, we had at the apartment, but I think it was. I think it was. I might be wrong, though.

Speaker 10: Anyway.

Speaker 1: Well, very good. So, Nick, before we wrap up, too, and again, we're going to play that track, Means Well, which I love. It's so catchy.
