Open to Ideas

Great venue, great bands, great fun but always looking for new ways to spread the word...so give me some new ideas

This isn't really a promotional idea, but i think alot more people would be able to come to gigs if they were on saturdays :S I'm sure there's a reason for them being on Sunday but hey.... just making a suggestion

Sadly the gigs can only be on Sundays...still you can always come down on school holidays, and pleanty f gigs occur then

make downtown diner t-shirts with info like the myspace, forum etc. just a thought.

how about running a comp on myspace for free tickets to a gig or something? this will get people replying and will also advertise gigs etc.

perhaps you could get people to design a T shirt (see post before mine) just a thought??

2 very good ideas I will give them both some thought and get them up and running

once you have got the line up for the gigs could you send each band say, 20-40 flyers, or ask them to print off a few. If they were already designed than you could iether send them a few through post, or just email them the jpg and get them to print htem out and put them up in music shops ect, places where people who are likely to go will go.

Thanks for the posting, I do send them the jpeg for their flyer and they generally promote using it, any more ideas?

Just another idea, people love freebees so if you got some badges or stickers out and circulating it could spread the word to those who havent adapted to myspace yet

Great idea, anyone want to design a badges and stickers and made up

what size(s) would you want, how many colours ect, these have an effect on price for them unless you can find a badge maker.

What would you suggest, 2 colours? want to have a go?

personaly no but one of my friends is building up a graphic port folio for uni ect and is very good, (see our msyapce for some work, she has done all logos ect,), just looking an one website here some prices are

100 25mm - 17.99
100 38mm - 29.95
100 57mm - 39.95

obviously buy more at a time and price decreases per badge.

Ask her to see if she want to design one for me then?

she just said that she wwill when she has time, got a lot of coursework at the moment but should be able to whip one for you in the near future
