Camie Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 if you do a wee googley search for "Hot Mangu"you'll see quite a few listings for the gig we did on friday.. (well you could last week anyways)so perhaps there was some promotion done for itpersonallywe've done it two years in a rowand done well both timeslast year we won the Aberdeen heat and we came 3rd in the Aberdeen/Dundee finaland this year we won the only Aberdeen heat and are going straight down to the final in Glasgow (with the Little Kicks too) which is great (we think)cos it means we get a chance to put on a show in front of what will hopefully be a good crowd of people and promote ourselves' date=' sell some stuff, hand some stuff out etc. etc.if you're in a band you usually want to do as many gigs as possible to get as much exposure as possiblethats exactly what we're doing with this competition- in two years we've played to a packed out Kef, Fat Sams, Subway, Tunnels and soon Carling Academy.. nothing wrong with that reallywe've lost no money (or at least no more than usual)and its helped us sell a few cd's and get more mailing list contacts, gig contacts, band contactss'all good:']Although it may be good for bands it is bad for the public as they have to pay 7/10 quid to see local bands. That's my problem with it.Also, i don't know how Carling Academy can be packed with local bands but maybe i'm being a bit sceptic about the whole things.

black_matter Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 if you look at the first line of all of emergenza's posts in order you can slowly see him getting more and more pissed off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
