BUSH: Gavin Rossdale Enjoys Playing Small Venues

Bush are back on the road supporting their new album, ‘The Sea of Memories,’ and the trek is touching down in smaller venues, a marked contrast to the big arenas they’ve played in the past.

He also sees the small gigs as an opportunity to grow. “I also would like to stress that coming back with Bush, I’m not expecting right away to play huge venues where we are like gorillas pounding our chests in the jungle, like, ‘We’re back, were great and you gotta come see or else you suck.’”
