Phil McCraken Posted May 4, 2001 Report Share Posted May 4, 2001 Hi again Graham,I just came back from a meeting with Mark Wilson, the organizer of the ComeTogether Music Fest, and both of us are honoured and excited that people arewilling to make the drive from Ottawa, Montreal, and places in the U.S. toattend the festival. To be truthful, we did not anticipate the interestthat the festival would generate outside of this region. It is a credit tobands such as Burt Neilson, Fat Cats, Caution Jam, Jomomma and Nero. All ofthese bands have built up a fan base, and when you put all of them togetherin one weekend, presto, people will travel. So cool!!!Getting tickets out to people can be a challenge. Mark Wilson has done hisbest, but yes, there are some holes in his approach. Having said that, heis a great guy and he will do whatever it takes to accomodate peopletravelling to the festival from a distance. He is most definitely willingto work out some sort of arrangement, perhaps a mail order or somethingelse. Please call him to set something up. He has put a lot of effort intoorganizing this festival and it is going to be an awesome event as a result.Here are his phone numbers - please leave a message if he is not there andhe will get back to you.Home phone: (519) 751-0762Work phone: (519) 756-2670My name is Mark Tonin, and I am helping Mark Wilson promote the event. I ameagerly anticipating what is shaping up to be a great weekend, with lots ofcool people coming together to hear some great Canadian bands. I am a hugefan of BNB, Fat Cats, and Jomomma, having seen each of them a number oftimes, and I look forward to hearing some of the bands I've heard about buthave not yet seen, such as Nero.Peace,Mark Tonin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
