My band is thinking about touring a couple of European countries later this year / beginning of next year. We released our first CD here in Sweden this summer, but it's not easy to get gigs here. Especially if you don't play hellacopters/the hives/whatever-hyped-right now-kind-of music. So if any of you europeans here at talkbass knows about any good clubs/bars/whatever in your country where we can come and play some happy pop-country, we would be really happy to get some contact info. We have been in contact with a couple of clubs in poland, and we would really go to germany and maybe the netherlands too. regards /kristoffer of the flaming moes
Hey Kristoffer, What kind of size are you thinking in then? I mean, I know of a couple of places where I can probably get you in the line-up, but these are fairly small. Also: what kind of audience are you aiming at? The happy pop-country does ring a bell here with college-people. Griitinks frum Hollunt!
Hi Yaw! Size doesn't mather you know Well, everything from 50 people and up is very interesting. We just love to play our music, and to let other people hear it. We have fans of all ages here in sweden. But college-people sounds good. Here's a couple of links to some songs from our CD so you can hear for yourself http://www.theflamingmoes.net/talkbass/01.wma http://www.theflamingmoes.net/talkbass/02.wma http://www.theflamingmoes.net/talkbass/06.wma /kristoffer
Hey Kristoffer, A couple of weeks ago I posted on this forum about this venue that was looking for your sound. Exactly. So what I'll do is that I will email the guy that's in charge there to see if he's interested in entertainment from Sweden. Maybe you can give me your email adress? Send it to sistayawa@zonnet.nl. With your permission I will send it to this guy if he's interested so you two can sort out things together. How does that sound? One thing I need to know is when your band is planning to head in this direction (rough sketch would be helpful). See you! Yaw
