How
To Promote Your Show
We at the Underground need for YOU to do your part
to promote your own show.
Not promoting will decrease your draw, thus decreasing chance of getting
paid. Also, we keep track of which band draws how many and we will
not have you back if no one came out for your band.
Flyers - get from us, or make yourself, a quarter
sheet flyer with the bands, location & address, date, time, cost
etc. Hand them out to record stores, take them to shows and get to
know kids and hand them out, send it to us if we don't have it and
we'll make sure they are here, take them to school, take a stack to
Dimple and other record stores, Guitar Center etc. (Any
other location suggestions??
email me) Don't
have a flyer? Pick them up here, we always have flyers! Call
us first to make sure we have enough.
Hang out here - Come to a show at the Underground
and we will let you in free as long as you are promoting your show
and passing out flyers (big shows excluded, we
do watch you and if you aren't promoting your band won't be let in
free again.)
Posters - make a plain piece of paper poster (hopefully
just a large version of your flyer) to bring to the venue and put
in the window.
Myspace - Make sure to add your show to your 'upcoming
shows'. Create an 'event' and 5-7 days before the
show invite everyone in the area to your event. Title it something
clever and make sure to put an 'invitation note' so some details pop
in their mailbox and not JUST a link to your show. (the invite feature
is broken right now though!!) Post your upcoming
show as a bulletin and at the bottom ask that people repost it for
THEIR friends to see.
Any other promotion ideas?
email them Marie!
