Promoting in Northern New Jersey
So I thought I'd start my TA forum adventure with a complicated and hopefully not futile exercise in making things happen/dreaming...
Where am I heading... TO NEW JERSEY (start fist pump now).
To preface this all I want to say I'm fairly new to the area!
I'm interested in being in partnership with professional (key word) promoters to start a weekly in Union County (Elizabeth/Rahway/Westfield/etc...) or Bergen County (Hackensack/Rutherford/Paramus/etc...)
What I dream could work:
- TARGET: 21+ professionals...they aren't interested in mid-week NYC commutes and although they have money their not interested in NYC big room prices either.
- MUSIC/SOUND LOGISTICS: House/Trance DJ's (no euro pop crap) - LOCAL LOCAL LOCAL! Need people with sound equipment expertise!
- LOCATION: I'm thinking the industrial areas of Union/Bergen County could be prime spots. I have some bars in mind - but I'll save that for future communications. Obviously there's a lot involved with this part.
- DOOR/MANAGEMENT LOGISTICS : Not sure where to start here - other than I know a bouncer
- most of this I imagine is really part of the house and the price negotiated with said house.
- PROMOTIONS: This is where I can actually help the most. I make websites for a living, I've done promotions in radio, I can get my graphic design skills on, etc...
So obviously there's a lot more to discuss and really this is just me putting out feelers/starting the conversation. Its definitely doable, but only with real dedicated people involved.
I hate to sound cliche, but I'm really looking for people who are serious, into our scene, and not into making a quick buck. This could take time to grow (like all good ventures)!
If weeklies like this are already going on without my knowledge in this area (and I have a feeling not) then all I can say is where are you promoting and how can I help!?
I need help TA! Lets make NJ fun again
