i've "retired" from active gigging but her is my significant others website and FB page. it's possible some of you have seen her perform. as her webmaster/webmonkey/sitebitch (still trying to come up with a good "title"), i prefer the website just because the content tends to be richer and more robust. however, its probably easier to connect with fans via FB.

here are the sites: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Cynthia-Calhoun/17481089847 and my favorite, Invalid Link Removed.

hopefully as a result of this post, she'll go over 600 this week. )))
 
So I have a new band. In the making, I guess. We are hoping to be gigging by mid to late October. My last band had over 1500 likes and we used it as a bargaining tool with the bars. So I want to get as many likes as I can as soon as I can to help promote us. With the likes, I can call these places, explain how we are all experienced musicians with connections, and even if a small percentage of likes show up we are pushing the marketing. So I propose: like my page, I will like yours. Thanks in advance.

A faster way of doing this is to just run an ad on facebook.
You can run an ad campaign that will show up on pages of folks that are interested in classic rock bands for as low as a buck a day. Or you can spend a lot more. We started doing this after the band started stagnating in the local market.....everyone we know had already liked us. Pumping up the facebook likes a reasonable amount helped us get some fair and festival bookings this year. You can spread the costs around by having each member run the ad for a week or two. Most of the folks that like you will never come to your show so its kind of an illusion for club owners so make sure you have some hard core party peeps to come to your gigs. If I was a club booker checking out a band on facebook .......a red flag would be hardly any likes and way too many. A local start up with no gigs and thousands of likes would be a red flag. I would rather see a bunch of bookings in the event sections then thousands of likes.
