Boston promo run! March 4th 10am!

[Oak Knoll]

That works for me. Suggestions... like some selling points? I can brainstorm on some ideas later on. I'm going to try to call places today during lunch. Also Bruce said he's help us make a Boston trip in the weeks to come. So we'll have the northern mass campaign, RI & CT, and Boston.

 

[Oak Knoll]

Bruce, that sounds like a plan. I'd like to get your info and new logo for you for the poster. We''ll pimp out the radio and tv show. We can even do up some video footage or radio stuff. Whatever you need from us. I'm sure Shroud and I are up for it. I also think we can do up a bunch of radio plugs.. like shroud excerpt and dan saying something... kinda like the ones I sent you before from my past online radio show. I can easily get you some funny overseas ones also. Sound like we should put some time aside for a planning meeting while we meet up next Saturday. I'm planning on spending the whole day up there myself.

 

[Oak Knoll]

So just for my sake - we are planning 3 days of separate trips.
1) Northern MA 2) CT & RI 3) Boston
and Bruce is putting together a lovely list of Boston sites for us to hit up.

 

[Oak Knoll]

Shroud is practicing this Thurs- maybe Bruce should stop in to get the band to say some spots or host intros with some shroud musick in the backgroud

 

[Oak Knoll]

I just emailed bullmoose and cc'd all you peeps involved. fyi

Nuggets is still around, by kenmore square.
Tower is now Virgin.
there's also CD Spins a couple doors down from Newbury Comics in Boston, Strawberries in Downtown Crossing, and i think there might be another place at/near Quincy Market

 

[whiplashtv]

Thanks for the nuggets info, I had forgotten Virgin but there is a tower in harvard square. I don't know about strawberries my own personal bias - I really hate them but if you guys feel they're worth the trip, I can put the info in.

 

[Oak Knoll]

I'm not sure when we are doing Boston.. maybe next weekend. Since I have to work Monday. But yes, put all those places in there. Nuggets! wow.. i haven't heard that name in years.. I am wasn't talking about getting kicked in the nuggets either.
I'm going to bring 20 11x17 posters tomorrow, tons of OK cds, tons of hand out cds/free comps, and maybe i can even make a holder for them
I didn't call anyone else today.. been too busy at work

I was gonna be at Dan Robinson's at 11am tomorrow.. who else will be there?

 

[Oak Knoll]

ok, next round .. cambridge/sommerville - 11am next sat
sound cool?

 

[whiplashtv]

Jeremy - I'm completely up for next saturday, so we don't waste anytime do you need me to call the area stores to see what their policies are? Also if you could let me know what I need to tell the stores that would be great. I"m guessing that I can also refer to the e-mail you cc'ed us on last week. Either way just let me know.

 

[Oak Knoll]

that would be great.. do you need that list you entered? anything in cambridge, sommerville, and maybe boston? use your descretion.
We can bring posters, free sampler cds, and i can bring oak knoll cds for consignment or straight sale. I think it's gonna be me, you, Ari, Dan R, i'm not sure about Dan C.

 

[Oak Knoll]

I'm still looking for artists to help me with the Belly of the Beast/WhiplashTV posters.. maybe I'll make something myself
and Oak Knoll posters.. i printed out 30 more Shroud posters

 

[whiplashtv]

Hey Jeremy - heres the score

Nuggets - Yes you can charge what you want as long as they get 20%

 

[Oak Knoll]

All the no's are from new cd stores.. right? the used cds stores are saying yes? mostly? and we're covering all of mass ave and parts of boston as well? like whatever you feel is appropriate? sommerville?
I think Matt from Deathintheforest.com/Nephillim wants to join with us Sat and also Ari.
