Brymon Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Hey there,We are planning to do a charity gig in Sept for the charity Children 1st (The Scottish equivalent of the NSPCC).CHILDREN 1ST >> HomeChildren 1st have an office in Aberdeen, where i have been to discuss things with the fundraising assistants. Monies raised should go to Aberdeen as opposed to everywhere and anywhere around Britian, which is what i was looking for.I may have a couple of bands confirmed pending dates (Hog?)I have been round some companies etc asking for donations to a raffle etc.I spoke to my own company who seem to be giving me quite a substancial donation, which is very kind of them.One problem i am having though is finding a suitable venue. I would like to use the tunnels again however, i may like somewhere a bit bigger.Anywhoo, if anyone is interested in helping out with anything, any bands willing to play etc it would be very much apprieciated .Nothing is to small and all counts.P.M me or post up here.CheersBRY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam 45 Posted April 18, 2007 Report Share Posted April 18, 2007 You think your easily going to get 300+ for this gig, thats a bit ambitious isnt it? Im sure when i made an appearance at a e106 SOM charity gig there was about 10 people standing in the lower section of the Tunnels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gig I did for stroke awareness was a great night straight through with 150+ with very small amounts of advertising done. It could be done, so long as its advertised through the right places and people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Children 1st are gonna do a couple of press releases, ive got intouch with Northsound aswell. As soon as i have dates bands etc confirmed i will start with the posters and i am planning putting them everywhere paper and electronically.But all said and done, whats wrong with a bit of ambition!!!
