As I recently did promotion at the Syracuse Raq show, so can you!
Raq is playing:
09/20/07 The Miramar Theatre Milwaukee, WI [raq]
09/21/07 Cabooze Minneapolis, MN [raq]
09/22/07 Martyrs\' Chicago, IL [raq]
Same three cities, one week before the Breakfast play there.
09/27/07 Kinetic Playground Chicago, IL [tb]
09/28/07 The Broken Axe Moorhead, MN [tb]
09/29/07 Rathskellar/Terrace @ University of Wisconsin Madison, WI [tb]
Raq\'s tour continues out west and makes a U-turn towards CO where they play:
10/11/07 Fox Theatre Boulder, CO [raq]
10/12/07 Cervantes\' Masterpiece Denver, CO [raq]
10/13/07 Aggie Theatre Fort Collins, CO [raq]
Again, the same three cities, one week before the Breakfast play there.
10/18/07 Trilogy Lounge Boulder, CO [tb]
10/19/07 Hodi\'s Half Note Fort Collins, CO [tb]
10/20/07 Quixote\'s True Blue Denver, CO [tb]
If any promotion can be done in these cities, these are the shows you should be doing it at! I\'m sending Vasillios 50 promos discs for the Boulder show, which then leaves 5 shows that need promo. Since it\'s too late for me to make and mail out promo discs for the mid-West run, go to the Raq shows and pass out tons of flyers. Introduce yourself to Raq\'s management/band members and try to work some connections.
Raq and the Breakfast are playing different venues in each of the 5 cities [Moorhead and Minneapolis are the only different cities]. With their combined powers they could be playing bigger venues on their next trips out West. However, this is all just wishful thinking until someone does something about it.
