I have sent lots of letters via venue for movies and tv shows but never for a musician only playing one night at a venue,I was just wondering how early before the show should i send the letter and should i write please hold for (artist name) and date of when they are playing?

Hey:)
I always write "please hold for..." :)
I live in Poland and when I send letters to the USA 6-8 days before concert. But I don't know how it is in Canada.

Hi, wonder if you have ever gotten any VV successes? I live in Germany and I sent letters about 10-12 days before the concert, but I never got anything back so far, although I included photos, SASE, etc!

I think it's really mean, if they keep the stuff or throw just it away! :cry: Even if the celebrity cannaot sign my stuff, which is understandable, they could still return it, even if it's unsigned!
