davewarden Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Would people come see:MySpace.com - THIS TOWN NEEDS GUNS - Oxford, UK - Indie / Alternative - www.myspace.com/thistownneedsguns I am a big fan and would imagine alot of people interested,it would probably be freshers week so plenty people going about.I wouldnt really do this but it would be quite expensive and I would be after a few people to help out/split any costs.

Panda Strong Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 I'm taking full credit for this thread. If i could remember my password i would have added my two cents earlier, but alas.My two cents;OH YEHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! LETS DO THIS THANG!!!1111 It would be them and Jonquil. If you haven't heard Jonquil, myspace them. They're nice. I guess that's why they're asking the price they are. As Dave said - if a bunch of us club together we could make it work.Also, speaking of ttng - new track on the myspace. Less polished than 26 etc, which i prefer. ALSO - i got my dates wrong, you're right - it's during freshers. Pipe this up as poppy emo twinkle jamz and BOOM, mega turn out...., you'd hope, anyway.

Guest idol_wild Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Bands who don't take the time to reply to nice diy promoters = To be fair, it was just though my solo music myspace as I didn't have my own promo one. But it kind of inspired me to make one - bands may take me more seriously.I've already been approached by some fucking ace bands about gig possibilities up here and I only created the myspace last night!MySpace.com - Spokes - Manchester, UK - Experimental / Indie / Rock - www.myspace.com/spokessoundYum.

Didz Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Just out of interest and approximate costs....how much would it cost to put on a band of their size up here and what are the usual demands?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the kids suck. They'd rather get lashed on cheap booze than RAWK out to twinkly emo </3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundays are always terrible for gigs.Freshers starts the next week. I reckon this is the kinda thing they'd lap up. As i said, advertise it as sing a long twinkly indie emo and you'd probably get quite a lot of kids. Just sayin'. I'd take a friday over a sunday though, i suppose.

I've been going to gigs in Aberdeen for ten years now and I don't think I've noticed it to be any busier at gigs during freshers.Though I see your point. Maybe we can hope the worthwhile freshers will come to Aberdeen for the weekend before freshers starts then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
