We forum members should mobilize a bit and help the band generate buzzz for their upcoming tour. We should all take a moment to e-mail or call the local rock stations in the cities they are playing and request Blind Melon. Of couse it wouldn't hurt to mention you heard they are coming to town. Here is the contact info for their first date: Nov 23 2007 8:00P Crocodile Rock Cafe Allentown, Pennsylvania www.wzzo.com/main.htmlStudio Email: studio@wzzo.com Studio Phone: (610) 720-9595 Studio Fax: (610) 434-9511 www.107thebone.fm/Request link: www.107thebone.fm/page.php?form_id=570If anyone in the area knows of more local stations let us know. Let our melon voices be heard !!

Great Idea, thank you! I have several stations in mind for DC, and a friend of a friend who is a DJ on a local rock station! ;D

Would someone be willing to post a letter we could copy and paste? It's not that I don't want to take the time to write, but I never know what to say/how to say it when writing them. If anyone wants to give me an example of a letter that could be written to venues informing them of the reunion and requesting they book BM, Id appreciate it too!
Thanks

Good idea. We can start a movement. When I went to see Aerosmith in Toronto last year, all the resturants and stores were playing their music, people were selling portraits of the band on the street, everyone who walked by had an Aerosmith shirt on - it was really cool. Maybe we can get a Blind Melon scene before the shows too.

I thought about the form letter thing but I feel it would be best to be original. If they see the same thing coming from a bunch of people it will lessen the impact. Also I recommend keeping it brief, just request a song. Mention they are playing in town.

I am pretty good at writing professional sounding letters. I might type a bit of a "form" type letter up Friday if anyone wants to use it.

I have been getting some positive feedback from some of the DJ's I have contacted. Has anyone else been requesting BM?
