Location: Toronto, Canada | Mark pretty much summed up it. The ticket sales have been slow, so the show has been moved to a smaller venue.
When there was no advertising as the show went on sale and afterward, I contacted the promoter (the hall themselves) and received response from the Marketing people. They had a plan to pace the advertising slowly, starting out with sales to their membership base which they hoped would build buzz, followed by radio and print. Well, some print happened, with no radio. I am happy Mark finally heard something on 97.7. About time! I know there has been some postering and flyering too, but I think radio will be an important key.
Unfortunately another factor running against the show is that many fans seemed to be turned off by the fact Twisted is playing Christmas music. I have been posting about the show on various forums, and while some response has been positive, a lot of comments have stated that people would go but they are going to pass because of the Christmas tunes.
Well, I hope the sales pick up with the radio promo and the TV appearance that TS is doing on Monday morning. I know I'm gonna have a blast!
S.M.F. Forever,
