[atlantaprog] Re: ProgDay presence for ARIA

Hi Mark,

Would it be more cost effective to have 1 representative carry Atlanta band merchandise to a vendor table at an event like this.

That would be a really good idea. Because of touring with my other band, I can't ever go to events like this any more, but I had a table at Prog Day for Cobweb Strange twice and sold a good number of CDs both times. I would definitely be willing to participate if something like this was going to happen.

It may be an accounting nightmare.

Actually, I don't think it would be bad if all of the bands would be willing to put the same price on their merchandise (for example if all CDs were $10). Each band could give the same number of CDs (maybe 20 of each title). Then at the end of the festival, you could just see how many were left and do the math. If enough bands were involved, they could chip in to pay for the table and let the seller set up for free...or split the cost of the table with the seller and pay a $1 commission on each sale (or something like that). I think it's a great idea.

I hope you don't mind me participating in local topics here, but we really don't have anything like this in Dallas... so this is the closest group I have...
Can I just be a 'long distance' ARIA member? ;-)

We'd love to have participation from ANYONE with an interest in the topic, regardless of location! Welcome to the group! ...we'll just have to show you the secret handshake later I guess ;-)
