Hello Tom,

MAZE are writing from Bulgaria!
We need to know where we should submit our Demo-record in order to get a date on this awesome festival. We know that probably you’re field up with bands for the next event but we decided to give it a shot.

Thank you for your time!

Best regards,
MAZE

he didn’t answer any questions. it’s about the music. that’s pretty much what he said at the start. maybe he should trim the fat. just say “its about the music” and leave the interview right away. i’ve got the same ambiguity about all other areas as i did before hearing this.

Wow..how refreshing, all you really need to get in on this gig is to have great music. Somewhat hard to believe that a business can promote a 3 day gig and make money by just having a history of bringing good music to the table each year. I say KUDOS to em if they have that great a rep. Now if I could just write some of that great music….

Tom, Im a singer/songwriter from West Mids, and have become pretty successful in my home town, so much so the local BBC gave me a job on the radio and I run and host my own acoustic nights.

Please consider me for a slot if you read this, I am confident and experienced with catchy songs and an attitude to make live performances great!

Thanks a lot.

Are you looking for any American rock/metal bands for your festival? Do you like rock music? I came across this phenomenal metal rock band called Damage on myspace, and recommend “G-d,” and “My Point of View.” Listen to for the individuals: Michael uses crude vocals, Tony great guitar riffs, Erin cello/back up vocals, Spencer deep bass chords, and G.W. rhythmic drums. By googling them, I even discovered that they won the best hard rock band at the 1st annual SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MUSIC AWARDS (SCMA)!

Hello Tom

You may have heard of us before as we are Brighton based, check out http://www.myspace.com/astrophysicsband or http://www.sonicbids.com/astrophysics – we do live hip hop/funk/drum ‘n’ bass fusion…

Hi Tom,

we’ve submitted our EPK for this years Great escape and would love to come play this year if you like what we’re doing, check out http://www.myspace.com/alrightthecaptain

All the best,

ALright the Captain

DON’T book me god’s sake! I’m terrible!

Hi Tom, thanks so much for the great advice. It is refreshing to hear that we don’t need to buffer our press kits with lots of garble – great music, good hook is more important. I am very interested in submitting our band in consideration for your festival – I just don’t quite understand how you can afford to book new, international acts like ourselves – the expense must be enormous!

Thanks again for your time.

Tell Mama – jazz & blues infused folk-funk

We’re from Brighton, always have a great turnout for our gigs. We’d go down a treat cause we’re a band that actually plays original tunes, no cliche riffs here! Weird hardcore punk metal, hard to describe. We’re very hardworking and have a music vid out for our track “Flesh” on Scuzz and Kerrang soon!
Speak to ya soon, Tom……

Hi Tom, I am writing on behalf of hakuna pesa. we realise we are a bit late with our reply regarding the great escape festival in brighton, however we would be really interested in playing any future shows you might have going on. in the meantime check out a couple of our tunes at http://www.myspace.com/hakunapesatribe

can we send you a promo pack plus cd?

Did you post a few of these things on another blog? That one post looked very familiar. Maybe I saw something about it on the news?
