To maximize the performance Live
March 10, 2010
I have an artist manager for many years. I also managed a live music venue and the acts booked for another. I have a lot of starving artists who want nothing more than appropriate to get booked at the club, and how to play this concert, get this book. This was you at some point. The location of the concert is only a small fraction of the success that is possible in life. In addition to setting an unforgettable live show, is the goal, your career, basedTheir fan base, advertising, buzz, reputation, income, and much more.
Obviously the first goal of putting together a phenomenal show. If this is a volume of 15 people or a packed stadium every time the monitoring phase space with the best performance you can give. Some suggestions:
1. They have an intro HOT – the band took a sack, so as to obtain the public with it. a. Do not start talking with the music, too. You can greet the audience after thethe first song.
2. Dress to impress: put some effort into your look. Do your best to stay close to your audience, you are the artist, then you need to shine. A. Believe it or not, I need to show how the artist does well as the people in the audience who came from them.
3. Move, dance, running, swinging, what!
a. If you are not necessarily (dance music from the situation, or you can not dance), you can request a motionCoach, can help you find the best use of the stage, the microphone to your instrument and the visibility of your party fun.
4. Do not talk too much.
a. I have left to show where the artists talked too much and too long. I do not want to hear your biggest fan, we talk about inspiration and story behind each song. Keep the conversation commit to a minimum, sufficient for the public, but not so much ruined the flow of music (andpaid for you) look at first.
5. Share the limelight.
a. Make your musicians and soloists are to a certain date. It is a pleasure for the musicians in a "makeshift" only highlighted the aspect of light.
Their performance is great? So, let's go forward. You got the job you got the show … but we want to make the most of your performance, so here's what else to do.
6. Advertise your site so you can find your audience once again.
a. Give your audience your website or MySpace link, so you can access them when they go home. It is better to end the show.
7. Makes it easy to record on the mailing list.
a. the record sheet and pin it on the table of the product is very accessible for people to sign.
b. I work with an artist who has created a laptop for the products table so people can enter their e-mail to your computer right to the databasegig.
8. Make it easier for people to buy your property.
a. Place the product in the table of the best available, so that fans can easily and quickly.
b. Give-away something for free with a purchase, preferably something that your group's name on it, and the site to find people more incentives to the table goods.
c. A band that I know had their own "cigarette girls" (the gentleman with the subjects walking) around the club. Only instead of cigarettesworn around the band merch. This is a great idea … because often people do not want to wait in a line or lose their place in the hall, go to the merch table.
d. Make your CD sales really counts … Register with SoundScan. After each show a form by fax, will return to reconcile the sales, so that hopefully SoundScan growing number of significant digits for the future, a buzz began with labels and distributors.http://www.soundscan.com/
9. Imagine you love the place.
a. for orders and further references, you want to enjoy the places in the foundation. This is, of course, the greatest incentive to book again when you fill the room and the public to buy the drinks (in which the place takes the money). But if the place is both a talented, motivated and self-editing easy, and promotion for their shows, you can count on booking, even if ticket salesnot big.
b. Before the show: Enter the place with a JPEG photo and bio of their promotional activities and a plot phase + / input list output for the good person. Copy the Association on all advertising and PR (they know what has been given to the press and radio, if you hang posters or flyers to pass, or send an explosion on MySpace).
c. About the show: Show the time for sound check. Pay attention to the guest list and the rules of the club food. PromotionYour audience in the bar and wait staff tip well. The site will really appreciate it! Thank you from the club scene, which I.
