Wow that really sucks. It takes a lot of effort to get ready for a gig. I had a very similar thing happened to my band two weeks ago. We showed up at the club around 8:30 or so and we hang out at the bar until they can clear out the tables so we can set up. As soon as they start moving things around we head for parking lot to load in and there in the parking lot is another band unloading thier equipment. Long story short.. It turns out the place doubled booked and we got the shaft. The only good thing... the other band sucked and drove eveyone out of the place. So I figure they got thier just reward.
