Hey Vegasans and Vegasettes, Hope you're well, So as you know we're back out on the road for the majority of November and December and we need to maximize the exposure we get from these dates. We'll need your help in each area to get the shows promoted and work the radio stations in the areas. You can download the posters and flyers from the site or request promo packs which will be posted to you asap. Here's a few guides of the sort of thing you can do: * Poster and leave flyers out in the surrounding areas. Concentrate mailnly on student areas, bars, deli's, shops, coffee shops, record stores. Windows looking out onto the street. Make sure the posters are in places that will insure they are not taken down between now and the show. * Hand our flyers in the street - don't appear desperate or pushy - just informative and friendly. * Contact the local radio stations. Let them know about the show and ask them to promote it and play 'In My Head'. Again, don't be too pushy, just informative. * Make sure the show is listed in the local gig listings, if it isn't, contact them and make sure its added. Get creative and see what other ingenious ways you can come up with to prommote us and these up coming shows. Thanks for all your work guys!! You're the best, Lots of love, Your Vegas x Tour Dates: Nov 1 2008 7:00P Missouri State University, Springfield, Missouri Nov 3 2008 8:00P The Marquis Theatre, Denver, Colorado Nov 6 2008 7:00P Great American Music Hall w/ ELECTRIC SIX San Francisco, California Nov 7 2008 9:45P The Viper Room, West Hollywood, California Nov 9 2008 9:00P Velvet Jones w/SHINY TOY GUNS Santa Barbara, California Nov 10 2008 5:00P Jerry’s Pizza w/SHINY TOY GUNS Bakersfield, California Nov 12 2008 8:00P Dos Amigos w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Odessa, Texas Nov 14 2008 9:00P Outland Ballroom w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Springfield, Missouri Nov 16 2008 8:00P The Waiting Room w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Omaha, Nebraska Nov 17 2008 8:00P Music Mill w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Indianapolis, Indiana Nov 18 2008 8:00P People’s Court w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Des Moines, Iowa Nov 19 2008 8:00P Canopy Club w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Urbana, Illinois Nov 21 2008 8:00P The Club @ Water Street Music Hall w/ SHINY TOY GUNS, Rochester, New York Nov 29 2008 8:00P Norva w/ SHINY TOY GUNS Norfolk, Virginia 1 Dec 2008 19:00 Majestic Theatre w/ DURAN DURAN San Antonia, Texas 2 Dec 2008 19:00 Nokia Theatre w/ DURAN DURAN Dallas, Texas 4 Dec 2008 19:00 Brady Theatre w/ DURAN DURAN Tulsa, Oklahoma 5 Dec 2008 19:00 Verizon Wireless Theatre w/ DURAN DURAN Houston, Texas 6 Dec 2008 19:00 Beau Rivage Theatre w/ DURAN DURAN Biloxi, Mississippi 7 Dec 2008 19:00 Eastern Kentucky University w/ Forever The Sickest Kids Richmond, Kentucky 8 Dec 2008 19:00 Schottenstein Center w/ DURAN DURAN Columbus, Ohio 9 Dec 2008 19:00 Air Canada Centre w/ DURAN DURAN Toronto, Ontario 10 Dec 2008 19:00 Metropolis w/ DURAN DURAN Montreal, Quebec 13 Dec 2008 19:00 House of Blues (@ The Showboat) w/ DURAN DURAN Atlantic City, New Jersey 14 Dec 2008 19:00 Wellmont Theatre w/ DURAN DURAN Montclair, New Jersey 21 Dec 2008 20:00 Korks Otley (outside Leeds), Northeast |

I would help you, but since you aren't even coming within a state it would be a little hard.

Shannon, you seem to be creative. I'm sure you'll think of something! What's the nearest show to you? |

I think the nearest show to me is in San Francisco, which is about a two hour plane ride, or 15 hour drive from me. I'm not sure exactly how far it is from me though. Those are just rough estimates. There's not even a show in Oregon, which is the state next to me. And I would probably get too drepressed street teaming for a show that I couldn't even go to.

Will do, guys. ![]() Even if we live in a different state than all the shows, we can do things like contact the radio stations close to the shows, share info with others on the net, and just generally keep up the positive buzz.

No need to be depressed Shannon. Street teaming is fun when you are doing it for a band you love. Shame you're not able to make it to the San Fran show. I've been there only once and it was a neat City. But, yes there are many ways to help out, even if they aren't playing near you. |

Yeah, I love San Fran. It's an awesome city. And it's hard not to get depressed because YV has been touring a lot, yet it's been six months since they last came anywhere remotely close to me. Plus, I think my mom would kill me if I called long distance to call radio stations in other states. :lol: And from my experience with Seattle radio stations, it's sometimes really hard to get through. If they ever come back to Seattle, I'm definitely going to ask Harms to add their show to The Ends Concert Calendar though. |

I'll help out however I can. I don't live near any of the shows but if anyone needs flyers or anything just let me know. I can design one and email it out as a PDF to be printed. |

Thanks Kerri! I also can help out with making posters and flyers, so contact me if you need help. I'm going to try to help out via the net and radio stations. |

Shannon, there are alot of creative ways to help out even if you can't physically be out there promoting with flyers and such, the internet is a fabulous resource. Like Julie said, email radio stations, and use any friends or contacts you have on myspace or other message boards that you may visit and wherever else to spread the word about YV and their shows. I'm going to see what ideas I can come up with to help with the NJ Duran shows, I'm sure Duran has their own promo, but I'm going to focus on getting the interest in YV's music and seeing them live, such as through radio stations and colleges. And I'll see how I can help with the other dates nationally, like emailing. Think of how exciting it is to help them with this, and how much fun you can make it! |

A lot of people that go see bigger shows don't even show up for the opening acts. We need to make sure people know that Your Vegas is worth getting there early for. |

I don't think we have to worry about people not showing up early for the Shiny Toy Guns shows because I'm guessing most of them are GA so people will show up early anyways just to get a good spot. I know what you mean though. I always go to shows for the opening band even if it's seated, but a lot of people don't. |
