My Band 101 Options

[Cosmin Lupu]

Hi everyone! This here, is a thread in which I will share knowledge and experience regarding having a band. It will feature spontaneous tips as well as A to Z thoughts on preparing and carrying through all sorts of activities regarding starting, administering and maintaining a band. I will also invite ANYONE who has thoughts and questions on the matter to WRITE THEM HERE. Good ideas spark from one another, so please go ahead

I will start with a very interesting discussion which has been initiated due to one fact - united bands means increased strength in many directions

Last night, me and the guys from Aria, met the members of Whitewalls and Goodbye to Gravity - prominent names in the underground modern rock music in Romania. We decided to create a concept in which basically Aria, Whitewalls and Goodbye to gravity join forces in touring together, supporting one another and organizing events together. When more bands unite and do things thoroughly, chances of contacting sponsors and drawing people's attention increase greatly! It will be a logistic nightmare and A LOT of organizational ruckus, but I'm sure we'll pull it out.

Aria's release in October will have Goodbye to Gravity's support and viceversa (we're releasing materials at 2 weeks distance, one band from the other) and in November, on the 8th, the first conceptual gig will occur, featuring Aria, Whitewalls and goodbye to gravity - the Modern Metal Consortium. We hope to draw more bands into the movement. We are trying to get only the best out there - if you want in, you need to have a great musical product, good showmanship and most of all, the band members have to be nice guys. I don't want nasty people in the clan

I am starting to work on the business plan today and I hope to get it done until the end of next week. It will be arranged in the form of a document with steps, which will be posted here as a PDF, so that you guys can download it and see ALL the elements needed to pull such a stunt together with your friends from other bands.

Here are vids of Whitewalls and Goodbye to Gravity:





Let the thoughts flow!
