Metropol User Info... | Hi folks, Steve from Metropol here. I've been working with Darcy's Pub on a permanent rotating Gig Poster Show featuring classic posters from Victoria's music scene. All genres, all venues (all-ages included). It'll start in a week or two. The focus is memorable events (ie. big bands in small rooms), innovative design and the history or our music venues. If you have any posters of note - we'd love to get our hands on 'em. We'll make digital copies and return them to you within a day or two. We'll get some press on the event, and hopefully shed some light on the hard work we do and the viability of our music scene. Thanks a bunch, Steve Webb Metropol EPS [email protected] 384-POLE - Tue, 7 Oct 2003 3:30pm | ||
