TD promotion

Fri Sep 26, 2008 4:42 pm

Hey Guys,

I really have to mention this: YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY GREAT!!
We appreciate your initiative immensely!

Our promoters are sometimes a bit lazy.....but we also try to
motivate them to launch more ads!

Thanks for your support,
regards,
EINSTEIN'S BARBER (ADMIN)

Later today I will be going on to some of the Edinburgh Universities Students websites and posting about the gig there.

well done mate...perhaps I should have done Glasgow

Btw ED what design did you use?

Andy

I used my own design for the poster, mainly because the official advert also has the London gig on it and I didn't want this to get in the way of the message.

I also printed them off in full colour for full impact (all the other gig posters in the record shops were in black and white).

Perhaps I could use the posters as an excuse to visit Fopp in Glasgow...is that divorce papers I hear rustling in the background??

Fantastic artwork!
I wish I'd live close enough to the venues to help out with the promotion. Not sure I can do anything from where I live.

At least you're coming to the gig Jacob, can't ask for more than that!

Btw I wanted to do something along the same lines, additionally I wanted to put some up in a few Musical instrument shops, like Sound Control

Great idea Andy. Sadly, Biggars in Sauchiehall Street closed this week but Sound Control and McCormicks would be good places to place adverts.

I always promote TD. Wear shirts of them frequently, play music of them when others are in the neighbourhood , talk about them. What else can you do?
