After viewing the presentation by Martin Atkins, I’ve taken away many aspects and topics that would potentially be of use when constructing a tour. Some of my favorite topics presented include the importance of finding your fans before the touring process and knowing where to play in order to be successful. Atkins even agrees, in some cases, with the idea that it might be in your best interest to play a lot of shows consistently in a selected city/area where you have already established a following before moving cities and having those shows turn out to be a bust. He points out the importance of creating a community with your fans and I especially like the idea that a band must find interest in all their fans and followers before they can …show more content…
Some other insightful ideas presented in the workshop include the flower petal theory and the idea of creating an alliance with other bands who are starting out and who you share the stage with each show. The flower petal theory explains that once you find a city that is working for your band, find a nearby city with growing interest in your band and establish your presence there. Once that location is established, branch out again and repeat the process. Eventually you will have multiple petals of cities that connect and that you can keep coming back to and finding success creating a flower-like shape on a map. As your band becomes bigger and more successful, the flower will grow, spreading out over a larger portion of the map. I find this theory to be both efficient and sensitive to your budget because you are somewhat restrained to a certain portion on the map and you will not waste resources and money traveling to a place that won’t work out, and you will consistently bring in a following each night at your shows. While the idea of creating an alliance with other bands you share the stage with might seem like common sense, the outcome it can have on your band often gets undervalued and underappreciated. If you do something as simple as exchange thoughts or comment with each other on social media, each band’s following is networking with one another and you soon form a bond with the other band’s fans, which will in turn expand your fan base without much work being
Have you seen those weird music festival T-shirts that people wear and wonder what someone could possibly want to wear that for? While they’re sometimes meant to catch attention of people so they may want to look up the festival, it also serves as a reminder for many amazing memories for the two or three-day event. For a long time now music has changed people’s lives in many ways. It has brought people to fame and lifted many out of depressions. But, to those who haven’t experienced a festival, or even live music in general, you have been missing out an amazing social experience like no other. From the kings of festivals like Woodstock or Coachella to the lesser known ones like Rock on the Range (Hard rock/metal based) and Day for Night (variety) there are hundreds to pick from. One of my favorites is Carolina Rebellion which takes place right in this state.
This is also the reason why stage production of the festival in Adelaide is so small. This can be seen when figure a (FOMO Adelaide) and figure B (FOMO Gold Coast) are compared. As you can clearly see from taking a quick glance at both festival sites with very similar lineups, the gold coast venue got a lot more people attending with the same amount of promoting and marketing. This clearly shows that there is something that hinders people from attending artist shows and festivals in Adelaide, which isn 't there in cities like Brisbane or Melbourne. The manager of the festival and I had a word and he said that the only reason they are bringing the festival to South Australia is so that they can use Adelaide as a testing ground and see if there is much potential for future events. The turnout was better than expected for this festival but still no where near as good as the other sites. Ever since the festival, BBE has been bringing in artist shows to Adelaide, such as Diplo, which I also worked on primarily as a marketing assistant, and his show was a lot bigger in the other cities as well, with higher stage production, more lights and a lot more crowd interaction.
These events are not always open to the public but aim to generate press coverage and publicity. Music events and festivals range from popular music concerts to classical performances. This includes festival such as Reading and Leeds. The music magazine NME provides information about all the upcoming festivals and concerts on their website. Wedding fairs are often held in hotels because it is easier for customers to access the wedding related goods and services when they are put into one place.
The theory of this experiment was the use of fear appeals based on strong and mild advertising of a stun gun. La tour conducted an experiment including three hundred and five women who were single while thirty four percent were married. The independent variable of the experiment was the advertisements with strong and mild appeals. . Participants that already carried a firearm and stun gun were screened out from this experiment. The participants were randomly chosen by the researchers. The researchers stopped people and asked if they wanted to take part in a study. Majority that was selected agreed to participate. To make sure it was a representative sample it was done in way to include people from across the hours of operation of the mall.
Promotions such as giveaways, ticket discounts, raffles, etc. are a good way to attract fans. I would also highlight these promotions on Facebook and Twitter for all of my followers to see. Using the media is also a good use of traditional marketing because it is free. The media outlets can inform fans and potential fans about the upcoming events. This is a free and easy way for the program to spread information to the public.
Planning a successful concert requires imagination in addition to an understanding of the goals and logistics of concert presentation. An open and informed mind can make the difference between triumph and disaster. It was imperative
Compared to other novels that deal with love affairs and romances, The Accidental Tourist by Anne Tyler is different because it takes the reader on a trip through the character’s minds. Macon Leary’s wife separates herself from him. Their problems begin with the death of their son, Ethan Leary. That is not to say that they agree on raising him, because they didn’t. “When Ethan was born, he only brought out more of their differences” (16). They choose to raise Ethan differently. Sarah wants to let him be happy and free, while Macon wants him to be more scheduled and structured. The already struggling relationship is now even more troubled. Macon is not an

After working all year long, sometimes sixty plus hours a week, the mind and body can become very worn down. You have to have a break or your work performance could suffer. The last part of winter or the first part of spring, is when
I remember planning for this day for about two years. When I would finally get the chance to be with my best friends and take a road-trip to California to go to Disney Land, and now that the time to take that trip has come and gone I would like to talk about my most important journey.
I went to Burger King with three friends. We walked a long way then I
After you choose your destination the next thing you must do is reserve your airfare and hotel. This may be tough because there are many websites and travel agents that you can go through. I have found that it is cheaper and easier to go through Expedia.com. You can book your hotel and flight all together and pay one low price. I have also found that flying with Southwest Airlines is very cheap and they have many one way stops all across the country and for a cheap hotel that is very nice I recommend the Extended Stay America.
Specific Purpose: To inform my audience about how modern music festivals emerged and how/why they have completely transformed globally
Basically what I want from a concert is for a band/artist to have a unique artistic sound/presence and for that band to deliver it to the best of its abilities on stage. If it 's a fun band, then I want them to engage the audience and be spontaneous. If it 's a quiet band then I don 't expect that. Similarly, if it 's a rough band then I don 't expect to hear the album played note-for-note. I want to feel like I’m at a concert, not listening to the radio. I want to feel the passion and emotion flow from the stage. I expect to get lost in the sound, and feel joy for no reason at all. The setting of the area is what I can’t wait to see. Lights flashing would be crazy to see, even in different colors from the ground to the ceiling. I want to see some jamming and rolling around on stage and some spontaneity, and some stretching out of the music of the songs.
The only sound that filled my ears was my keyboard clicking as my fingers raced across it. I had been procrastinating from finishing this assignment all evening, but I knew I needed to get it done. The burning sunset was shining through the windows as I was finishing up. It was a peaceful silence, until I heard the soft whispers of my parents that ignited my sense of curiosity. I was concentrating hard; doing my best trying to make out the hushed words that were being spoken.
