ADAM Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 The Sugarmill if you can get on. The Underground isn't bad either. sent an email to the underground and matts gonna send a press pack to the sugarmill but both of them seem pretty "snobbish" "we put on local unsigned bands if youre not local and want to play, may i suggest you get a manager and booking agent" Sod off! Would YOU like to pay for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 You'll find lots of places like that Adam, and I don't personally have a big problem with it. Out of town bands don't bring a crowd unless they have a promo team. If you have a promo team, get them to call them!! We just used to fake it IE call up and pretend to be our manager.

cheddatom Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 But surely not as a headliner? It depends on the promoter/venue. It's deffinitely not a Stoke thing, as we've had the same shit from all over the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAM Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 we're not asking to headline! Just the chance to play! haha Weird! I mean, yeah the big venues dont book unsigned bands without an agent/manager etc... but just little clubs in a city usually do...all they ask is you bring people along! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 OK, yeh, but the Sugarmill is a fairly big venue, and the underground have pretences of being a big venue, so maybe that's why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADAM Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 hmm maybe.. cockpit in leeds is bigger...got on there no sweat! haha currently in talks with guys at manchester academy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheddatom Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 But the band is from Leeds? It'd be cool if you get on at the academy 3, I went there to see meshuggah in november and it's a great venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
