it sucks when you tell someone you will promo for them and forget to go to the zumies couch tour


<-- happened to me :(

and then you forget to bring your camera when you actually bring some to a cd store

<-- also happened with the same material....

but its only some punk group anyways, they are called stutterfly

why bring a camera? i never understood that, whats the point in taking pictures of you promoting? jus fuckin promote the shit
i seriously dont like taking pics of what i do



it makes you look weird, its like "oh look at that kid... hes taking pics of pointless crap"


some stores dont even allow cammeras




i dont know, if i take pics they will give me a cd, shirt, and some crap but i probably wont even bother to much with pics cuz i forgot already and i dont feel like going back their with a camera

One one know when Strange will start sending out promo's for the new album? And is there a way I can have some sent to me?
as far as i know they send it to a particular person for a radius of so many miles or cities or somethin and everybody that wants to promo gets there shit from that particular person. if theres nobody "near" u then they might send the stuff to u.

like in seattle trav sends shit to my homie an i jus get a buttload of stuff from him

well here is what i do...

i have some friends stop by, give them a bunch of crap and tell them to pass it out (they probably keep it all :angry:)
i bring shit to local concerts and just set it next to other materials or tables
every used cd stores lets u put up promos by the door and hang up posters, some times i hang up flats too
its fun to take flyers when they send u to many of them and just throw them at people

at concerts i have thrown cds in the air cuz i did not feel like carrying them anymore when i was waiting in line.... after that someone came out and said they, as in me, wont be allowed in if anybody starts throwing more cds

handing stuff out at the malls can get you kicked out, so just watch for security

you can put posters on the side of buildings but i never done that yet

i usually jus walk down highly populated streets in towns i.e. bus lines, strips, shit like that.. and tack posters n flats on every single power line pole.. street lights, buisness' get real pissed when u completely cover there payphones with stickers lol.. that shits funny. i put stickers all over street and freeway signs.

we stapled a bunch of flats to my homies back once and he walked through a grocery store tellin people that these guys outside jumped him and made him come in the store to hand out flyers lol that shit was comedy.

never been kicked out of a mall for promotin before.. but then again i dont usually go to malls even though there probably a nice spot to do it at.

ahhh.. the life of not having a life right?



edit: i forgot to say that i dont give other people any promo shit unless there comin with me to do it cuz keepin it all is exactly what people do. i got stacks of flyers for passed concerts that i gave to people to hand out and they come back the day after the concert and give em all back except for like maybe 10.. fuck that, what ya gonna look like with a grip of posters an shit in your closet or where ever?
