Hey folks,
Got dragged into this addiction with thanks to the soon to be Bouches. Still trying to figure out all the bells n' whistles of this site, there's so much material!
I'm sure you've got posts relating to these fields, but in accordance with avoiding any future frustration, I was hoping some of you could maybe throw out a few pointers in riding the music-scene wave:
Ottawa has a great music scene, and I'm still being surprised at discovering how many great people, venues and musicians are involved in it. Still, I can't help but feel like a new babe to all of this, and although I'm not sure where music will take me down the line, I still wouldn't mind a few of you sharing names of places to start getting it out there.
Events, organizers, festivals, I just don't know who I have a right to ask for gigs. I've done some at Rasputins (love it!), Bass Line Station, Rainbow (love it too!), but I can't help but feel a little overwhelemed at times. I even checked out various music sponsors, without the slightest idea of how to make our music marketable.
So in nut shell, this is a cry for suggestions, or even curious listeners.
Thanks a bunch, and maybe others can benefits from reading this post, or not. I'm mainly being selfish here.
