What about a Heavy Harmonies music festival?


Recommended Posts

There's so many bands who advertise on here and then the discussion network going on makes for an awesome community feel and I was putting the 2 together in my head and thought, wouldn't it be super cool if there could be a Glastonbury or Download style Heavy Harmonies festival so members could potentially meet up sometimes too.

 

Surely with all the talent signed up to this site there must be plenty of contacts with promoters and organisers etc around the world who would have the know how and connections to get it going in various countries but it would be under the Heavy Harmonies banner which would 'up' the spread of your site even more and maybe help with the running costs cos it should attract more doners and the bigger the site got, the more talent it would attract and it would be win win all round.

 

I like to dream big ? A smaller dream would be to have a Heavy Harmonies stage at one of the big festivals rather than be responsible for the whole thing.

 

..and here's where someone points out that it already happens and I've been walking around with my eyes closed. Lol.

Uhh... no, no, and no.

 

I did some minor sponsorship at Ultrasound in 2000 and 2001 as well as the first Melodic Rock concert in 2007. Seeing a bit behind the scenes into the fustercluck that dealing with bands, labels, egos, and immigration (especially now) can be, you couldn't pay me enough to deal with that.

 

Especially now later in life with a full-time job and a second part-time job.

 

Nice thought but it ain't gunna happen. :)

Awww shame. I can imagine it'd be a bit of an organisational nightmare though so don't blame you.... and I know for sure i certainly would never be volunteering myself to do it! :jail:

    • I wonder what control they have over the releases? That have promoted the BMG individual releases. The 2009 reissues were by original label, EMI. And this boxset seems weird being issued by Cherry Red. And I have not seen the bands social media promote it at all. I wonder if the reason the BMG ones were lacking in the bonus tracks from the previous reissue was EMI holding onto the rights, but have now allowed Cherry Red to release them. I know EMI used to be the distributer for Cherry Red, so they may be more forthcoming with the material.  
    • Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.
    • I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here  
    • Babymetal - Metal resistance Babymetal - The other one
    • Enjoyed their last cd "Human Nature" remind me of a mellower Black Stone Cherry, similar to Little Caesar.
    • BlackRain - Hot Rock Time Machine Lee Aaron - Bodyrock
    • Now theres a blast from the past  I'm lucky enough to possess 
    • Another i'm still awaiting the arrival of...same day release/delivery my arse Amazon  Still this is sounding like their best release thus far...they are gaining and getting better...although I did enjoy the last few albums also...but the sound/production from this one is excellent.
    • Still awaiting mine to arrive...should've been on Weds  or according to my order that was the case anyway
