Here's my idea. All of you out there who are in bands who have little to no exposure (basement/bedroom bands who don't really play shows) send me some of your best tunes. I get some cash, put the best ones on a cd (50-70 copies?) and sell/consign them around town. Victoria gets to see the hidden talents of its own bedroom bands, I doubtfully break even, and everyone gets the word out about their bands!

If you like the idea, or have any suggestions, email me at [email protected]

This is also where you should send your tunes if you want them to be considered for the comp.

(also, let me know if I've posted this on the wrong board, I couldn't really decide which was best)

Oh man, dude, we just did this! Well, like, in June. Except we gave it away for free. 50 copies. The tracklist is at http://www.myspace.com/oldlife. The comp is #1 on CFUV charts, too. If you want a copy, email [email protected] - Fri, 31 Aug 2007 10:17am

yo Cody, should I just copy the CFUV one, or is there anything special about the non-CFUV copies? - Tue, 4 Sep 2007 1:30am

You might as well just copy it.
