Curious... is it something with Liquified? These same two girls have tried to add me to Facebook 76987695986596 and a half times but always avoid the "the fuck are you???" question. They're in the Liquified and Swerve groups, though, and always spam the same events.
Anyone know? And if you ladies are floating around on here, kindly tell me if I actually know you before you send me another million requests.
Spank you,
Maggie

They do it to me too and I've barely been to any shows in Atlanta. I have no idea who they are or what Evoke is.

Evoke is Andrea Restrepo. She works hand in hand with Liquified to put on Swerve and a few other events around town such as the Poplife events. She's always been really cool towards me. Don't get so paranoid

I wasn't really bashing them or anything, just had no clue who they were and I kept getting random adds and invites through Facebook.

Same here. That does get annoying real quick. They must have multiple facebook alias accounts because I set them to permanently ignore, and yet, i still get requests at least once or twice a week.
Don't get me wrong, I know you have to blast out a million messages to promote and what not, but after a while no means no!
It's also pretty useless to go through the Liquified facebook group and add all those people so you can send them mail about events they already know about. Brilliant!

Well... I myself, and I've been told at least two other folks I know have been reporting the profiles as spam (since they never answered any questions I sent asking who they were and what exactly they were), so it could be that they have to make new ones. *shrugs* I dunno.

They definitely do keep making new profiles. Lucky for me, Andrea and her "evoke" friends don't ask to be my friend or email me AT ALL after this nice Facebook conversation I had with Andrea in February... enjoy:
Moral of the story (apparently): Tell her to please leave you alone and she will stop bugging you.

She's trying to promote, not annoy anyone. Unfortunately they fall in the same category sometimes

No doubt. I'm simply not a fan of the "throw everything at the wall and see what sticks" school of marketing. This whole thing just reeks of those Ci@li$ and V!@gra spam campaigns.
A little effort can go a long way toward not frustrating your target audience.
