I chatted with Dave Cruttenden about #DiscoverUnsigned

#DiscoverUnsigned

What advice would you give to someone starting out in events?

Go for it, but be prepared for lots of problems like acts pulling out last minute etc, pressure to promote & never ever give up it’s worth it for the buzz you get when you pull it off. You will get rejected for trying to support others, you will get naysayers & you will get people saying you can’t possibly achieve it.

What you’ve got to do is say watch me, be determined, have passion in what you believe in, & be driven enough & determined enough to prove people wrong. Stick to your beliefs & find like-minded people for support & stick with them, none of us succeeds alone but we can try even better especially if we’re together. The more people like that you get on your side the more likely you’ll have successful events.

I don’t believe in running down competition we are all part of the grassroots community and should all help each other out, other promoters should all help and support each other especially if they are based at the same venue, as it all helps each other’s to be successful. A busy venue equals a busy event.
