Promotional flyers:

More places with flyers soon (I bottled it in 'Stereo' yesterday

),
but they can be currently been seen in Glasgow, at: Fopp (in Union St), Oxfam Music (in Byres road), Fopp (in Byres Road), the Glasgow Film Theatre (GFT Cinema in Rose Street) and Mono (Restaurant/ Record shop in Kings Court).

Should have done this about a month ago really

More great stuff, Andy

Would never have thought of the GFT, but I think there is a good chance we may get a few bodies out of that.

No problem....in addition, other towns with flyers include:

Saltcoats (Indoor market near the record store)

Irvine + one other Scottish town

Plus (fingers crossed) Strathclyde University...soon

Just sent off an email to TD friendly BBC radio DJ Stuart Maconie:

Hi Stuart

I wonder if you would be kind enough to play a Tangerine Dream track to mark the band's forthcoming visit to the UK in November.

They will play at the Kentish Town Forum, London on Saturday November 01 and the new Edinburgh Picture House on Sunday 02. TD will be playing music from the albums Stratosfear, Tangram, Hyperborea and Views From A Red Train as well as the usual new never performed before material.

There will also be pre concert fan meetings at the Abbey Tavern in Kentish Town (London gig) and Mathers Bar on Queensferry Road for the Edinburgh gig - a warm welcome awaits any fans who wish to come along.

Thanks Stuart

Ed

One can but hope!

Nice one ED, he plays the stuff, but you'll be lucky to get a response I think

You're probably right Andy, but it's worth a try

That's a real shame. Perhaps giving The Metro newspaper a few tickets would be an alternative, as they usually have a small feature to go along with the 'give away'?

hmmm I'd mention it to TD, but I've already wasted their time once over this (afterall, they've already been very helpful over this and I'm reluctant to play on their good will anymore). However it's a very good idea mate.

perhaps TD's promotional people could contact the Scottish version of Metro and arrange this?

thinking about it, TD could always offer a couple of tickets to any large magazine or newspaper, that way they'd get the promotion without having to pay for an advert

Seems sensible to me mate, but I wonder if the dudes that TD are paying to promote the gig have thought of it?

Personally I think you'd make a better job of it Ed

From this Saturday till November the first I'll be sure
to be mentioning again the forthcoming gigs and the
whole fan meet details. I do know, although not on
the attendee list for the meet itself, that quite a few of
the TDFZ radio shows featured artists have TD
concert tickets and informed me over the last couple
of weeks they will be sure to be joining us all at
the pre-meet bash..roll on November
we need their names Chris

Hi Andy there are more names on the way but a
confirmed one you can add to the list is musician
Thomas Rydell whose just got back to me
