Event Co-Ordinators & Promoters Needed - ASAP

Event Co-Ordinators and Promoters Needed


TBR Studios Presents:

The Battle for America
A National Battle of the Bands Event

We are now seeking EVENT Co-Ordinators & Promoters

If you have ever wanted to promote musical events such as concerts or local music shows, this is your chance to learn the ropes and get paid to do it. No experience needed, just enthusiasm and a desire to succeed.

We have now completed two annual events in Texas (The Battle for Texas - Houston Regionals). SEE BLOG on www.myspace.com/battleforamerica home page. We are about to roll out into other major Texas cities as well as expand nationwide for the 2010 event. We need co-ordinators to accomplish this. I will personally carry out Texas cities unless I find Co-Ordinators in the other cities such as Dallas, Ft. Worth, San Antonio, etc. I think you get the idea!

We need Co-Ordinators in every state to run the 1 Day events in their major home city and you have the option to take your local city event to every major city in your state. This is similar to a street team concept for a band, except you get paid for your efforts and are part of a national event. There are no fees for you to sign up as a co-ordinator and join the project.

I have all the tools (Registration & Waiver Forms, graphics, etc.) & experience you need to make your event work in your city. Both of our events in Houston were started and successfully completed in 30-45 days from the date of event conception. All you need is the will to take on the event and make some cash in the process. ie: If you find a venue for the event in your city by January 1st, your event should be completed by Jan 31st or mid Feb. at the latest. Then you can do it again later in the year or move to another city.

This is perfect for Recording Studio owners, Graphic Artists that work with bands, Music Store owners, full/part time musicians, entrepreneurs and even Club owners. It's a great way to network your business, studio or band and be part of a national event at the same time.

Your function as an Event Co-Ordinator for The Battle for America:

1) Secure Venue and Date of the event
2) Secure local sponsors (Recording Studios, Music Stores, Graphic Artists, etc)
3) Secure Bands to Compete (I'll show you how)
4) Promote the event locally along with competing bands
5) Secure 3 Event Judges (usually from the sponsors)
6) Host Event (emcee) and hand out local awards at completion of the days events.

If you live in Atlanta, for example, your event will be called:
The Battle for Georgia - Atlanta Regionals

Your event will have a MySpace page tied to this Battle for America page. If you own a recording studio, for example, you will have a banner such as mine: "TBR Studios Presents"

I think you get the idea. For more info on how to become an event co-ordinator, contact me by my studio phone, home phone or email below (or this page) anytime days or eves. Ask for "Luckee".

See you in the Battlefield!!!


Thanks,

Luckee

Looking for Bassist

posted: November 20, 2009, 07:16 AM

ISO bass player. IF you play a stand up there are extra points, but not exclusive to that dimension. Vocal ability helpful, but not imperative. Performance-minded intermediate level, but pushing it up very quickly. Currently, we are two as mostly acoustic rhythm/lead and voices. Adding drums/percussion soon as possible. I will send a URL to responders to review some of our musical work (raw, but you get the idea). We lean towards Originals, Dylan, Rhett Miller, Bonnie Raitt, Shawn Colvin, Wilco, etc. We are looking to practice 2x a week and eventually perform 1 or 2x a week if not more. Open to ages mid 20s and 50s. No smoking please.

Pirate Girls?

Yarrr! We've been a pirate band in Portland for about the past five years.
It's been a band of dudes up until now, and we think it's time for the pirate girls to represent
We get really good shows, and it's an easy band to book. It's the most fun you can have with your
clothes on...which is optional. lol!

It's one night a week practice and a few shows a month.
I'd like to put series of out of town shows together for next spring.
Probably Washington or northern California.

We're looking for drums, keys, guitar, bass, stringy thing, blowy
thing....Whatever you play is fine. It's more about the piratute.
Ambition goes a long way. We're pirates first...the musicianship is just a necessary evil.
Yarrrrr!

Check us out at:
www.myspace.com/sunkenchest

Or just Google Sunken Chest.
There is a bunch of stuff out there from outdoor shows we've played around the coast.

Smart Bass Player with Chops and Dynamics Wanted (Milwaukie)

posted: November 19, 2009, 11:42 AM

Replyclick here

This is a new project. All original material. We are not established yet and we are very much in the writing stages. Not all the pieces are there yet but the core is very solid and has incredible writing and technical skills.

What we have -
A solid drummer
An incredible guitar player and song writer
A smokin keyboard player and song writer (thats me)
A groovy rhythm guitar player
About seven songs in various stages of completion
Killer practice space, recording capable (actually we record all our practices)
Good attitudes (we like having fun but if your idea of rehearsal is getting wasted don't bother. We'll have to kick your ass and then the cops get involved... just save us the trouble)

What we need -
You, if you're a good bass player who is looking for some creative license and fun.
Lead Vocals

The plan is to round out the rhythm section, record some songs, then search for vocals. We have some high hopes. The written material is still evolving but is very cerebral. It's on the order of Tool, Alice in Chains, Joe Satriani (I know, one of these things is not like the other but if you can imagine their bastard child...).

About us -

We're all in our mid thirties (except for our Drummer, he's old (ok, he's 40)). We have lots of experience on our instruments and pro gear. Tim, drummer, and I are coming off a 4 year stint in a cover band. We realized that we had some pent up creativity that needed an outlet. We stumbled on a killer guitar player, Will, and started writing and haven’t looked back. Will and I have an excellent creative repoire and a strong theory background, Tim is always right there with a creative beat or two or 7. Jeff likes to hang out on rhythm guitar and rounds out our sound. The majority of the tunes right now are 4/4 but we are looking to experiment with off meter and have been experimenting with creative rhythms and chord changes. The music is slower and dark, lots of minor tonality and a few upbeat numbers as well. We don't have any expectations for the music right now. It just seems to happen.

What we want from you -

Rule #1: Don't be a dick! If you don't have any friends and your mom never calls you, you're a dick. We won't get along with you and we'll have to kick your ass (see above). Seriously though, personality matters a lot. It creates the environment that we create in.
Please have some gear. Something that sounds good and can cut through the other instruments if needed.
Have some experience. Nothing is worse than meeting a cool guy/gal who attracts wildebeest in heat when he/she plays. Again, the asskicking, blah, blah, blah.
Commit or don't. If you miss a practice, cool. We all have lives. But call ahead and don't make a habit out of it or, you guessed it...


So in conclusion, be awesome, and cool, and good on your instrument. If you still have questions please call Dustin (503) 752-4806. It's my business line too so don't freak out if I answer it as such.
