xgsjx Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 It's my dad's 70th birthday on the 9th of April & I'm looking for a good Rock n Roll band (50s & 60s stuff) to play at it. Sooo, I thought I'd ask on here first of all & see if there's any BCers bands up for the task (paid gig of course) before I start looking around. It's in Glasgow & an evening affair to @ 200 folk, so PM me if you're interested. Graeme Quote
Bassman Rich Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Hi there, were based in Leeds, so bit of a long jaunt up to Glasgow, and I suspect our Jim Jones revue style of Rock n Roll is not quite your dads cup of tea, but good luck finding the right band. You could of course get your own band to do it, im sure your dad would be really proud to see you up there cranking out 'blue suede shoes' etc. [url="http://www.therocketeers.co.uk/"]http://www.therocketeers.co.uk/[/url] Best of luck, Rich Ps for some reason, the webpage is down, theres a bit of stuff on our fb page, if youre really interested here [url="http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/185737268579/"]http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/185737268579/[/url] Quote

However not only is your web site down, but your Facebook page is inaccessible to people who aren't Facebook members. Not exactly the best way to publicise your band. Quote
Bassman Rich Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Hi there, looks like the website is back up, no idea why it went down, or came back up, I dont do the techy thing, and the facebook thing, well thats just facebook saying 'if you don't join our gang, you can't see any of us' Pathetic, I know, but there you go.

BigRedX Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Great stuff now that I can actually see and hear it! BTW if the Facebook page is for the band then you should really change the accessibility settings so that everyone can see it. Afterall advertising is no good if you exclude part of your potential audience. Quote
Bassman Rich Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 Hey Big Red, thanks for all that. I didnt know you could alter the facebook settings to do that, I'll have a word with our people and get the IT department to put someone on to it asap (ie, tell our guitarist to sort it) Cheers again Quote
