Hi guys,
this thread is mainly for Cosmin and Ben, but of course anybody who is interested to play a german festival with his band can join in. While it appears to be pretty difficult to apply for the huge festivals like Rock am Ring, it is possible to apply for a bunch of smaller festivals. I am gonna look for the right person to send your promo stuff to, and hopefully I'll see you guys in Germany next year. First hit: You can win a gig on the Summerbreeze festival, a big metal festival in the south of Germany (approx. 2h from where I live now). Here is the website for the competition (it is in english as well ): http://en.new-blood-award.de/contact-impr.html You guys should totally enter this competition! More to follow... Christian -------------------- |

Does Voodoo or Aria count as metal? Or does it have to metal in the classic sense?

Yeah, there are bunch of festivals in Europe that are open for younger bands. Does anybody has some idea on how they handle traveling expenses?

We would just have to find a place
Maybe on the island Flores in the mid-atlantic? So everybody would have to travel somewhat the same amount of miles -------------------- |

I have found a site that lists basically all the festivals, so I am browsing this site today. It already has many dates for 2012, strangely enough some festival sites have not Let's begin: Winternachtstraum Festival (metal), 24.-25.2.2012: http://www.ordenogan.de/WNT2009/index.php?content=contact (they as for CD, Picture, Information and an adress, don't send them emails) Greenfield, 15.-17.6.2012: You will have to send an email to Mr. Martin Schrader, [email protected] (yep, it's in Switzerland) http://www.greenfieldfestival.ch/intro/index.php Rock am Tunnel, 29.-30.6.2012: Couldn't find any info on their site regarding applications, just send these guys an email: [email protected] ; Website http://www.rock-am-tunnel.de/ Steiner Burgfestival (metal, kinda medieval), 29.-30.6.2012: no info on their website, just send them an email here: http://www.steiner-burgfestival.de/index.php?PageID=2 Temple of Metal, 7.7.2012: Email these guys at [email protected].

I couldn't find any info on how to apply on their website, maybe you want to contact this company, as they seem to care about quite a few festivals and bands: http://www.kingstar-music.com/contact.php Pretty unknown festival...can't hurt to send them an application: http://www.wacken.com/en/woa2012/main-head...nd-bewerbungen/ That's it for now...I listed the big festivals that allow an application, a few smaller ones, so now it's up to you. I'll check from time to time if some other small festivals will take place next year. If you need any help translating something or whatever, just ask me Cheers Christian p.s.: I only ask one thing in return: grade my rec takes This post has been edited by Gitarrero: Sep 18 2011, 10:42 AM -------------------- |
