Hi guys,
I'm not really sure where to post this, but i decided against the live forum, cause its much more than just a meet up at a gig.
Basically, i go to york uni, and i'm gonna make some flyers for when Reuben play York in June. I'm a Press And Publicity rep for the uni, and i'm gonna blitz the campus. Hopefully it'll make loads of people sit up and take notice.
My query is two-fold:
1) Does anyone live in york and wanna blitz other areas? The town, St. Johns, help with the Uni.
2) Any ideas for what to put on flyers, press quotes, comparisons - Things that will make general rock fans go "huh? shit i can't miss this".
Fibbers is a great venue and i really believe, with a bit of work, we can sell it out for the lads.
Also, if i could get some official tour posters anywhere, i can get them up on SU notice boards, but they need to be official! Any ideas? _________________ --

Yeah thats cool, well done. i hope it all goes well. There is a racecar poster on ebay at the moment, but it's not worth buy and putting up. (some one will nick it any money) but there is an image of the poster on ebay so that might help you out  _________________ I told her i did not care, she told me lies.

i kept it two colours so i can photocopy it onto coloured paper, and just chuck them everywhere.
if people want me to change venue and dates for other gigs so they can distribute them i will. it'll be a 10 minute job.
anyway, don't reuben have a bloody street team? _________________ --
