sending via venue for first time ( a rock band)

Unread post by smackedsillyxxx »

hey whats up? I wanna try and send to Halestorm when they are on tour which just started. few questions.
will all venues on the tour give them mail? 2 weeks before the concert should be good? i live in the same country as the tour.
I was thinking of sending 3 pics to sign, 1 for the whole band and 1 for the lead singer to only sign since shes awsome, would that be ok?
anyone have success this way? any and all ideas are welcome, thank you

honestly i think that three pics is too many but you can try it....

No not all places accept fanmail...look @ this list:

ten days is the best amount of days to send before the concert date... :)

btw i have had TONS of Via venue successes...so good luck! :)

Couple Things:

1. where is the concert PLACE at? (the arena?)

2. i think it would be better if YOU sent a pick to be signed...to ask for one (yeah its kinda rude...ol)

3. once you tell me the place where its held...you should mail it on Jan. 28th, 2010.

For movie sets, what is the best way to find the movies that they are currently at? I look on imdb but I don't know if pre-produciton or filming or whatever is the best time to send. Even if I found the right movie production to send to, I don't know the exact addresses. Also, how do you know if something is up to date, could you call the agency that represents them and get the information? Is vv the best way to get hard pressed autographs, or is it not worth the extra effort?
Thanks,

Hey! Hope my info helps you.... :)

1. 99% of movie addresses are on THIS SITE...all you gotta do is search and ask... :)
(BTW i always send movie sets when it says either filming or pre-produciton ...as long as there is an address..you should be good...i have never sent this post production..i was always too scared to try it....lol)

2. you can call the agecny (the #'s are listed in the info) and they will always tell you YES or NO...but they may now tell you te current agency if they are no lo0nger a client..so then u have have to do research or you can always ask someone on here...)

3. Via venue: they dont always come back but its a CHANCE (i always say that...cause its not always 100%...its a kool way to try though...even though i have gotten back 90% of my Via venue successes...i have sent out about 40 and gotten back 20...so thats good :)

any more questions? :)

xoxo musicfan!
