"Well, I Have Tried To Get The Community Involved, But They Don't Seem To Care", you are so right, the average person that proclaimes to be "all that and a bag of chips", will not support your programs if you are not in the "Clique" or "Loop". If you have a band, group..ect., leave your hometown and venture into new territory.Always make it a point to meet new people.If you try to make things work on your own, forget it.Most people would rather see a Major Artist in your backyard than you.That is what we call "Spite" in the music business.Remember that Major Group got their start from somewhere, and you can bet it was not in their backyard.
Once you have established your group/band,seek out contacts outside of your community, even the state.Try to get a good working relationship with your new contact(s) and invite them over to one of your programs.Try to atleast pay for their gas and lodging.You never know how far you can get by being humble, and honest. Never, ever, over look the groups that support you on your programs. If you are having a Major Program with Major Artist, include your supporters, they will look out for you in many ways. These are the people to most likely set up programs to have you on them if your status is above average.In the near future, work with others, and see if the favor will be returned.If it doesn't come back, you will know they were not in your best interest.
