first off, i dont know any of you so, hi.

i've quickly skimmed the topic because there is so much so forgive me if i have missed anything.

just a few bits of advice for the guys organising this event.

printing usually takes 4 working days + delivery. so if you get your artwork to the printers and signed off for about 10am on monday you will get your flyers by friday.

for your first event it is the norm to PR round about bars and at any big related club nights for 4 weeks before the event. Your PR schedule should look something like this:

Friday 20/6/2003
Saturday 21/6/2003

Friday 27/6/2003
Saturday 28/6/2003

Friday 4/7/2003
Saturday 5/7/2003

Friday 11/7/2003
Saturday 12/7/2003

***Dates changed to the correct ones***

The first weekend can be missed out depending on the size of the city.
You will need 2 people to go round the bars handing out flyers on these nights.
It may also be an idea to hand out 2-4-1/half price and/or free passes to lure people in or something like offering half price entry before midnight (im assuming its open 11-3).
the time to give out passes is on the night and if anyopne seems really keen to come, the weekend before.

it also helps to go round shope asking if you can put flyers on the counter: mostly clothes and shoe shops. you will have probably seen other people flyers in places: go there. put flyers in local record shops too.

If you havent already chosen a printer then start getting some quotes NOW!
Most printers will accept the artwork in Photoshop, Illustrator, TIFF and JPEG format. Resolution should be 300 dpi and it should be in CMYK format.

GET A VENUE CONFIRMED NOW, its getting rather late to secure one.
Get the DJ's confirmed then you can start thinking about the running order.

The design for the flyers can get done now and add the names in later.

and probably most importantly: who are the backers for this venture? (ie whos stumping up the cash)

is this a one-off or is it going to be a monthly thing?

what is the capacity of the venue? do you think you can fill it: be realistic and very pessimistic about numbers. this is a new night and unless you are booking 'named' DJs noone will know the people on the bill - it will take a lot to drag them in.

just a few points for consideration. im not trying to put you guys down at all, just making sure you are aware of what needs to be done so that the nights not going to be a flop before its even started.

some usefull advice from teh old thread that i thoguth id repost

Posted by *HaRRy* on May-02-2003 22:02:

here are a few logo designs, you get the basic idea, i cud of ran through a millions combos, here are a few main different designs, as you can see theyre all based around onme design with small alterations. the "add" sign can be made thicker to achive a different effect but with the same design style.

Well at the mo we still have no sound gear

the guys from sound of eden emailed me and it seems to me they are willing to supply for Night 2 but it dont look to me like that they are supplying for nite 1

Copy of the email i got from them.

Excellent � Start of a plan!!

I think the best idea is for me to come up to the gig on the 12th July do I can check the club out.

What is the date of the 2nd night when we can do the association?

whats happening here Ste or Harry ? ?

Posted by *HaRRy* on May-07-2003 08:39:

I have no idea

they didnt say anything to me, although it seems that Ian is free on the 12th so im sure i can persuade him to bring at least the decks/mixer anyway.

ill find out today

Posted by George Kendall on May-07-2003 16:18:

I've asked Goldenscan.........he said that'd be fine if they are not in ibiza that week.....

So its a bit early.

Hey, I'm new to these forums, but not to TranceAddict.

I didn't even realize there was such a thing as TA:UK. Sounds very exciting!

I'd really like to get involved with the whole thing. When and where is the next gig you are planning? Would any of you consider holding one in Leeds? Obviously I would do my share of the running around and hopefully we can pursuade Galaxy 105 FM (based in Leeds) to cover the event. I was thinking an outdoor event would be cool, but maybe we'll look into that next year.

So if someone can tell me where the next gig is and when, I'd appreciate it. If you want to send some PR material my way then I'd be happy to add my ideas to it.

e-mail me anytime at: [email protected]

What kind of gear do you need for the 1st night? E-Mail me the exact list. I might be able to get it you for free, but it will most definetly involve more "in association with" publicity. Oh, and I'd like free access to the DJ box
