Today I was a rock star at work...all I have to say is that I made a name for myself for everyone who didn't think I was worth hiring. I have Saturday off, I'm hoping the the crew will want to take a road trip to see the game. It would be amazing!
So I've been meaning to blog about this for awhile but I haven't had the chance. Bands who have 'secret shows.' There is a band that is not very well known that I have seen grow and change since the beginning of college. Well I saw that they were playing secret shows around the area in NC. Well I emailed one of the band members to ask what the deal was and he said I can't tell you. Consider it a scavenger hunt for the band. I'm thinking, well great it's an hour away to try to even find where you guys are playing, I think not.
If your fans are wanting to come and support you why would you not let them know where you are playing. I understand that some shows are private shows but call them that. I would think as a band trying to get your name out you would let as many people know about where your are playing to get the word out. You need to make new fans but you don't want to turn away the old ones. And if you make the old ones mad they aren't going to spread the word about your band, if anything they'll say bad things. So to those bands who are doing these secret shows you might want to reconsider, it might be causing more harm than actually helping you.
