Wednesday January 14th, 2008 :: Get into shows for free! We are organizing a street team for any band that might roll through any city! Im looking for people that want to get into shows for free in their city. How it works: 1. A band comes to me looking for promotion help. 2. I work out an agreement with the band that if I have posters hung up and flyers handed out then I can get free tickets or guest listed into the show. 3. I then contact you if the band is going to be coming to your city, to see if you would want the free tickets to that show. 4. If you do want the tickets, then I have you hang up posters and pass out flyers and send me pictures of you doing so. 5. You get into the show for free! Read More... Wednesday December 24th, 2008 :: Dec 08 Interview with The Werks It has been a while since an update due to being out of the country with no Internet access. However, before leaving I had the chance to sit down with the guys from a Dayton, OH band called The Werks. If you have yet to hear or see these guys, definitely check out their music or attend a show next time they are in your area. For now, atleast peep this interview to get an inside look at what they are all about and get informed of where you can find more music of theirs. Read More... Wednesday Decemeber 24th, 2008 :: Nelson Ledges announces 8 festivals for 2009 Nelsons Ledges Quarry Park has announced 8 music festivals so far for the 2008 season. There have not been many bands announced yet, however, those will soon come. It is nice to see that some of the classic festivals will be returning this coming year though. Normally the festival season at NLQP starts in mid april and ends the last weekend in October. There is no confirmation on festivals as far as October yet. However, we have reached August, with the Midwest Reggae fest, which has been held at Nelson Ledges the past couple years even though it is actaully one of the only festivals held at NLQP that is put on by people outside of the park. So far there are 12 bands confirmed for this summer, but that is nothing compared to what will be announced by the time summer gets closer. Read More... Saturday Decemeber 6th, 2008 :: Norman Dimitrouleas as The Werks New Keyboardist Now known as the former keyboardist of The Werks, Dave Bartoletti, has decided to leave the band in hopes of entering a new stage in his life, with his girlfriend, all the way out in Maine. Bartoletti has been playing with The Werks since the beginning. Over the past few years, it has taken a huge part of his life. However, is with out a doubt, been a portion that he will never forget.

Alright, well it seems that a lot of people have faded away from using the boards any more so I wanted to do something to draw people back to using them again. I have always had the idea of making a website strictly about music that provides articles and reviews. However, I have always wanted the website to be user interactive, so that people can give feedback about the reviews and such. So I came up with the idea to combine the website with the forums. Right now it still looks a lot more like forums than a website, but as more content gets added to the site, the website part of the pages will start to take up more space and things will start to look like how I had envision them. I also plan on providing things such as Artists Spotlights, Interviews, News, and Contests. There is going to be a lot of content that wouldn't normally be available if this was still just simply discussion boards. We still need a lot of help though, so if you or any one you know wants to get involved, it would be greatly appreciated. Read More...

We still need a lot of help though, so if you or any one you know wants to get involved, it would be greatly appreciated. We are going to need people to write articles as much as possible. We are also going to need people to update the calendar with new upcoming shows and events. You wont be able to post your own articles/reviews in the main area of the website unless you are one of the websites writers. However you will still be able to freely discuss whatever you want on the original areas of the boards, as well as post comments on the articles that the staff members write and put up for viewing. Once we have a solid staff formed I plan on creating a page where there are interviews with the people that run the website, so that you can get a little personal feel of the person who is writing the articles that many of you will be reading. We also plan to one day host events of our own, and further expand the website with things such as a website radio, photos and videos. In addition to all of these new areas of the website, you can also expect to see many new features being added here and there. I have also opened the original discussion boards to viewing for all guests, with the exception of the Vine Trading board and the Members Only discussion board. I think this should draw more people into reading something on here, which in return will get them to want to register as a member and keep coming back. If any one is interested in joining the crew, all you have to do is send me a personal message explaining what position you would be interested in filling. Come back often to see new updates as we plan on getting a lot of new content up as soon as possible to get things off to a good start.
