Today I received 2 texts and 1 call promoting the thrillseekers at circus. I appreciate the trance acts you guys pull in, but I do not remember opting in to receive solicitation on my phone. What makes it worse is that there is no option to unsubscribe.
Mobile is a great way to target an audience, but unsolicited spamming is an easy way to get in trouble.

most of the time with those text messages it your reply STOP to them, they will send u a confirmation saying you requested them to stop sending things----not sure if it would work in this situation...

I don't know one damn person in the whole damn world who appreciates any type of damn texts in this damn fashion. DAMN!!!
lol.
It used to drive me and everyone I knew nuts when 1015 would do it. Or someone was sending out 1015 info if it wasn't 1015.
It's just irritating. And annoying. And it just feels dirty.
It's different when a promoter says sign up to learn the lineup before anyone else or something. a special little thing using it. but for normal weekly promotions and being kinda sly on getting people's number for promoting through texts...lame-o.
But like others....if there's coupons for some free food in there...some of this may be forgiven! lol

It's about time! You and your crew (or DJs I used to book ) should play in the back room and not in the loft.
See you Saturday.

I am not personally involved in the LMD texts/calls (aside from texts I've sent my friends about Circus), but I will let the appropriate people know about the issues with excessive texts/phone calls.
