Hi fellow softies,

Any talented bands want to perform at gigs? We will be doing a series of gigs starting from these February 2006.

Our main objective is to promote ourselves and local band scenes. We are looking for any kind of band to perform as we will go by different genre every gig. For those who are interested in participating, please submit your band details to inktocreate@yahoo.com.sg. Please send us your demo if you have one.

Thanks all!
 
what's your name and what organization are you working with/for (if any)? where will this series of gigs be held? how will the gigs be financed (meaning how will you get money to rent equipment/venues and so on)?

Wanna perform at gigs? Let’s make it happen!

Bands Rumble is a multi- genre gig. It will be held every week starting from February 2006. Every band will be given 25mins- sound check, band swapping, performed. The purpose I’m organizing this gigs is to promote the official venue, Gashaus, a newly opened café bar and for local music scenes. Please take note that there won’t be any payment given.

Due to lack of funds because of their recent start- up, we have to sell tickets at $8/- inclusive of a soft drink to cover the equipments rental fees, advertising etc. But we are not forcing the participating bands to sell fixed number of tickets.

So if you think you are catergorised in this following genre, please email to inktocreate@hotmail.com by 8th Jan 2006. Please include your band details, name, contact number, email add, website.

1) 4th Feb: Rock- Alternative, Pop, Progressive, Modern
2) 11th Feb: Metal- Heavy, Death, Black, Melodic, Gothic
3) 18th Feb: Punk- Emocore, Hardcore
4) 25th Feb: Funk- Funk & Indie Rock, Ska, Grunge

Since there is overwhelming response for certain genre, we might be having audition.

Thanks all for viewing

amen. :)

Randolph (from the embryo) and myself (in Divine9 from Australia) played at the Gashaus venue on its opening, it is a big, loungy space, but there were some logistical problems encountered (teething problems in the setup). We were both given ample time to prepare and were paid in full and in timely fashion. So kudos to Gashaus

Asside from that. Small complaint: so the bands are not going to be paid yet cover is still going to be charged? Will there be some incentive for the bands to play other than sheer exposure?

According to your other thread, the bands that belong to a label will get paid, but not independent bands? Why so?


I hope this gets addressed before this thread spirals into a big flame fest
 
For sake of convienience, this is your other post:

Sorry Soft for adding mutiple thread.

Thanks Saito, about the covercharge, it will be used to pay GasHaus,equipment fees and sorts. As for the incentives, i will try to reduce the covercharge fee or something else but no promises.

Regarding the label artistes, i think we don't have enough in our budget to pay them yet.So, i would edit that thread and it's only open for independant bands.

I think it's up to individuals to accept this offer. We do have covercharge but we are not sure what the turnout would be like.
