Nothing can be done about MCD really - can there?Yea bycott them or something - nah...
So how do Alpharelish and all the other people putting on gigs, get bands such as Oxes/Trans Am/Sweep over here?Contact the bands management directly?Or is it contacts over in the U.k. who go - "We got " " touring here in a bit - do you wanna fill some dates?"
Just curious.
I got this mail from this crowd from Eastern Europe last year - They were trying to strenghten the DIY/underground circuit in europe by working together and giving each other help.
Example:
They help give bands from Ireland a hand gigging in Czech Republic - and you return the favour by helping Czech bands gig Ireland.
They sent this suggestion/email to most gezzers like yourselfs around Europe too.I don`t think it took off though.Guys from Germany agreed - as well as some other eastern block geezers.
I thought it was a great idea - get more of a concrete grip on the touring bands scene in europe.Hence, for souls like myself - get to see more bands..
Don`t know if they`re still up for it though - or how their brianwave went, or even if it did make things better.
Is this relevent by the way?It may help someone...
