Tonight Alive will be heading out on their headliner with Go Radio, This Providence, Tyler Carter, Simple As Surgery and Ivory Lights (for select dates)!

The limit is two teamers per date, but it is not on a first come/first serve basis! I will let you know if you have been chosen to promote the show! BE SURE TO READ THIS WHOLE POST BEFORE EMAILING ME TO SIGN UP.

I will need at least 2 weeks notice before the show if you’re signing up. We’ll mail you all promo you need. Also remember to never sign up unless you’re 100% sure you can commit to doing everything listed in the instructions and that you can attend the show. Unless given proper notice for an emergency, you’ll be given a strike if you don’t complete the show promoting.

Here is a look at what all you will be doing to promote Tonight Alive for this show:

For pre show promotion:

Street:

Hang up 5 posters:

▪   One of those posters MUST be hung up at the venue prior to the show.

▪   The other 4 should be placed at places such as records stores, Hot Topic, YOUR SCHOOL, etc. (10 photos total – 5 close up so you can see the writing, 5 further away to see where they are hung up)

You will need to promote a show in your area before Lucky Street hits your town! Pick a show and fill in the proper information on the show sign up form in the allotted space.

You will need to print out 30 flyers (found in the flyer album. Feel free to do more than 30!)

▪   Write the date, venue and time of doors (can be found on the event pages of the venue)

▪   Pass them out to people in line and start up a conversation! Get them stoked on the show coming through.

▪   I will need a picture of each flyer with the person that you passed it out too! (1 photo of all printed flyers, a couple photos of flyers being passed out)

Online:

-      Tumblr: Create a lyric picture or post a live picture you’ve taken from a Tonight Alive on tumblr  and tell everyone why you’re excited for the tour! Include the link to the ticket website (goradiovip.com) in the post and tag it with Fearless Records, Go Radio, Tonight Alive, and Lucky Street. (1 screenshot)

-      Twitter: Most venues have a twitter, so go to their followers and tweet 5 people informing them of the show. Tag @TonightAlive and include the ticket link! (5 screenshots)

-      Facebook: Create a facebook event for the show and invite all your friends! Include all the show’s information, including the bands playing, the venue, ticket price, time of doors and show date. (1 screenshot of inviting and a link to the event)

Use this code to invite all friends: http://olivo.net/2011/04/how-to-invite-all-your-facebook-friends-to-an-event-at-once-code-has-changed/

DO SOMETHING CREATIVE! :)

This is also a part of a contest we are running for the street team and those that sign up to promote the show have priority entrance. More is explained in this note: 

 https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=344547072252358 

But if you sign up to promote the tour this segment of tour promotion is mandatory!

You will need to send me pictures of your pre-show promotion at least one week before the show. As a reward for your hard work you will be guest listed to the show! (You get in for free) You then will need to promote AT the show.

For promoting during the show:

-The stickers should be PASSED OUT to fans at the show. 

-Snipes (plain looking posters) should be put up in BLOCKS OF FOUR! Make it a square. These are to be used only at the show! (Example will be shown in letter you will receive if approved for show) (Pictures needed)

-If they venue allows stickers to be placed on the walls and such, no more than 3 of the stickers should be used for that.

- Gather at least TWENTY email signatures, and phone numbers for the fearless newsletter/mobile mob. DO NOT FORGET THE PHONE NUMBERS. These are equally important. Make sure they know they’re signing up for exclusive news, contests, content, and first listens to songs (the last one is the grabber)

(I will need pictures of you using the stickers/snipes.)

- Get someone (a TM preferably) to sign your email list and take a picture of the signature to include in the show report.

I must also have all of your pictures, emails and the report from the show no later than 3 days after it has passed. If you do not send these in you will not be eligible to receive promo in the future. When you fill out the form, in the last question tell me why you should promote this show, but end your testimony with the word “meow” so I know you read this.

Once you have been approved for a show you will receive all the forms you need via email and all of your promo will be shipped to you so you can start promoting. Here are the dates for the tour!
