As you know, we now have a database of over 700 bands that have been in touch regarding The Mill, yet we only have slots for about 25% of those.<br />We also listen to all submissions and pass info on but in some cases we will suggest a band for something else, yet not even have time to tell said band that we have put them forward. If they knew about more potential opportunities, they could chase them themselves.<br /><br />Scotland has always had a strong reputation in music that I am sure will continue, but in the times of this ever changing music industry, it's important for bands to get as much up to date info as possible.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00199954097083063501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-330043150516669072.post-28436777912726766642010-01-23T10:12:09.270+00:002010-01-23T10:12:09.270+00:00Good luck with this Jim.

I'm certainly going to make the most of it. <br />Some folk aren't 100% sure as to what I'd be offering, but I'd make that clear before any booking. Indeed, I'm currently contructing an information sheet and for for potential clients to fill in.Jim Gellatlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15816229845839307541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-330043150516669072.post-42836693112859615732010-01-22T10:12:40.537+00:002010-01-22T10:12:40.537+00:00Jim I believe that this could be something very be...Jim I believe that this could be something very beneficial to grass roots acts who a lot of the time can get lost looking for help and relevant information from what is a very wide (and for the most part) disorganised music community.Matthew Alexander Pattonhttp://www.pavelware.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-330043150516669072.post-23930743534273062212010-01-21T17:13:33.461+00:002010-01-21T17:13:33.461+00:00A good idea Jim but think you need to firm up what...A good idea Jim but think you need to firm up what you have on offer.<br /><br />A band may not have the best of ideas what they need to know or indeed where to start.<br /><br />you could maybe tailor a package to different levels.<br /><br />ie - starting out, a few songs, no experience<br /><br />Getting some interest, reasonable amount of gig experience.<br /><br />Looking to make a big push etc.<br /><br />This could give a more tailored package to the band, be more worthwhile to you, give you better feedback and probably enjoyment from it.WeKnowSFAhttp://footballsfootball.com/WeknowSFAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-330043150516669072.post-67855409774943185242010-01-21T17:11:11.259+00:002010-01-21T17:11:11.259+00:00Great idea jim think any up and coming band would ...Great idea jim think any up and coming band would or should jump at the chance bud.Gedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768661870502026697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-330043150516669072.post-12759847521416586802010-01-21T16:46:47.256+00:002010-01-21T16:46:47.256+00:00I am Dominik Diamond, and I endorse this message! ...I am Dominik Diamond, and I endorse this message!
