New England Metal Fest

Oak Knoll · February 23rd, 2006, 03:33 PM

OKP might be there this year. Although it 1500 for a table I'm trying to get in. Maybe I'll take donations or offer some poster space etc etc in exchange for a donation to help me get in. I'm waiting on an email back to confirm my spot.

Wish me luck!

Looks like I'm in.. I just need to pay it. So here's what I'm gonna offer bands (OKP bands will of course have their stuff on my table).

But I'm planning on something like $25 a day and I'll hand out your flyers, promo cds, etc in swag bags at my table. If a band wants 3 days worth of swag bags then it's only $70. Prices are subject to change. We provide the bags only. We'll have as many bags as there are swag to put in them.

Please post this everywhere/forum/myspace, etc!!

This year Oak Knoll Productions has reserved a table at the New England metal fest. I really want to help push the local and underground scene (and recup some costs, having an indie label at a big show.. well it's outrageously expensive for someone trying to turn a hobby into a break even job).

What I'm offering to bands or anyone interested: I'll have someone there at my table (or myself) handing out SWAG bags(stuff we always get (from others?)). Your band can have your cd, flyer, sticker, etc placed in these bags we'll hand out to the masses as they pass our table. You can lock yourself in right now if you want since I'm just placing the price at just $25 a day. I'll take your swag and put them each in the tons of bags I'll be handing out. 3 days will only be $70 ($5 off whoopie!!). There will be a limit of 1 flyer, cd and sticker (3 items) per band and we keep handing out stuff in bags as long as I have bags and swag.

So get in touch with me if you want in. You'll be part if the indie/underground metal scene that is working it's way into these huge fests where it's getting almost impossible for us locals to be part of.
Email me if you'd like to get into this easy way to promote your band.

Everyone should pitch in on this..the more that jeremy can put into this, the better it'll be for everyone. For you European people that don't know..this fest is HUGE...and it turns out a massive amount of people. If you want exposure, this is certainly a good way of doing it..
