That, or there are now fewer local acts.

I always add the local shows listed in the papers if the bands already haven't added them themselves... the whole point of the AMN is to be a resource for researchers. For example: Curtis told me that We March played more shows than that in Athens. He said, "We've played more than 9.5 Athens shows per year" But what he didn't get was that We March wasn't even around in 1997. On the other hand, for a few years there, I remember them playing the Union 2 or 3 times a month. And recently, they've only played three Athens shows in the last 4 months. So 95 sounds pretty realistic to me. Perhaps you can + or - the number by a few shows, but I wager it's pretty accurate.
