Have you ever looked at the tour schedule for one of your
favorite bands and gotten excited when you saw you state’s abbreviation in the
right hand column but then scrolled left only to find they’ll be four or five
hours away? Not only will the drive cost two or three times the ticket price,
but you’ll need an entire night or half a day off from work, which translates
to you slowly accepting the fact that you can’t go. I imagine this is a
re-occurring nightmare for many who reside in upstate New York, and inland
California, whereas music fans in the Dakota’s are probably so frustrated that
they can’t stomach to check on that kind of thing without a liquor bottle and
box of tissues handy. For instance, how many people do you think will be bitter for how many years after missing the insanely rare/overdue three reunion performances from The Replacements (band referenced in title) this summer?
I would hope that you've already accepted your band as not being half as good as The Replacements, but what you may not have realized is that you may be someone
else’s favorite band and chances are that they won’t be seeing you on your next
tour. In fact, the official estimate is that roughly 75% of your fans won’t be
in attendance. The good news is that you can use social media to do one of the
things it does best…give you (and your fans!) options. To find out what some of
these are, follow the link below:
