How Not To Promote

Saturday April 9th 2011, Holly Springs Mississippi, 6:30pm at the Eddie L Smith Multi-Purpose Building. I have seen some good programs, and have seen some bad programs, but this one took the cake, and ate it too. The promoter of the Awards Program did not have his ducks in order. He wanted to run the kitchen without the things need for the cook to use to get the food out to the people.His knowledge of  a program is limited, I mean 0 to the 0 power.

The people that he wanted to honor did not show their face in the place, and the ones that did show up, was tricked into comming, and they were angry about the trickery. The host wanted to do everything, and be everywhere doing other people jobs that were assigned.He cheated himself out of funds, by letting another vendor set up in front of the building, and sell a variety of foods.He did not cover his cooks expense, nor his MC, but he paid other  performers that were not on the program, and was trying to use deceptions to make a buck.

I will not mention tyhe name of the company, but I will say this,he is bad for promotions, and his ideas of trickery will get him in hot water, and maybe harsh treatment.He had a very good package of artist to carry the program over, but he did not know how to interject them into real time.. It takes time, and know how to promote artist.This none promoter gets (0 broken keys.)

These artist below did an outstanding job, they were very professional in what they did, and had the audiance involved in the service. They are easy on the eyes and ears, and knew when to take their seats.There were some overage in other performers, but these young ladies, and men proved they are ready for a Hill Boy Award in 2012.They get (5 broken keys)

Out of West Memphis Arkansas, you will have to see it to believe it. These three young men are well on their way to the top of the heap. I heard with my own two ears, sweet music from a 10year old on a lead guitar, that"s him with the glasses on, and the drummer, and the Bass Guitar, you would've thought you was at a concert meant for the stars. I was very impressed  at what I saw and heard. The showmanship was great, the timing was perfect, and the music was friendly to the ears.They are the type of act, you will come see again, and again.They get (6 broken keys) from the ring!!!! They had the audiance wanting more,a good start.......
