FatHand Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 This Friday everyone... make sure you come down and get your email address on the list for May's invitation only party. No email address, no invitation.The more people who get down to funk each show we put on the sooner we can start dishing out gifts from the spoils. We're definitely into bribery, or reward depending on which way you look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the duke Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 I think when someone pays them proper money as they are all working musicians....lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatHand Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 I think when someone pays them proper money as they are all working musicians....lolRod... is that you ?? Shame it's money that gets in the way of good music sometimes, totally appreciate that if it's your sole income then it has to be worthwhile financially. I could help get a night organised if you fancy though? It's going to be part of my adgenda to promote a few extra nights now and then so it could be done easy as... if it's well advertised and organised you can potentially make a reasonable amount. But it's like anything, you have to put some leg work in over and above the music to get folk through the door, it's all about advertising and giving people plenty of opportunity to find out about it. A text message to your mates on the day or a day before doesn't cut it for making cash.Zony Mash music is classy so that's the hard bit done.

the duke Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 No mate,it's not.I think when people are used to playing at a semi pro level ,they get used to the fact that they are not going to get paid much.I'm sure your nights attract a large crowd,therefor someone is making money.....you or Hen.The first couple of times i saw the Mashers at the lampie there was about 80 people there,don't know why they went to the shitty Tunnels.Anyway funk on and have a good een. Best. The Duke8-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatHand Posted March 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 Cheers Duke! We're keeping it funky for sure! Roll on tomorrow night come along and enjoy the music and look out for us flyering on Belmont Street... If you think your music would fit in with a Funk Machine night then get in touch and let me hear your stuff! Happy to accommodate touring/out of town acts that want to play too - pro and semi-pro musicians welcome . I will be recruiting some acts from the further reaches of Scotland/UK, hopefully in the coming months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
