I'm talking benefit shows and compilations

2 goals:

Raise awareness of Aaron's awesome project

and

Pay that fucker for his time and effort that he has spent on all of us and all of our shit


Start the ideas now



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at May 14,2007 2:39pm
We could get shirts printed for cheap, and he can sell them, though this seems to be an ongoing thing anyway.

I really liked the last comp we did, I think it was a slick idea AND it helps us while we help Aaron

thoughts?



toggletoggle post by sxealex   at May 14,2007 2:42pm
i owe rev 20 bucks... i said id pay 20 bucks every show he went to. and i didnt last show. so yea. i think i asked for his paypal address but never checked the thread.

a comp CD I think would be a good way to approach this.

Get 20 bands to pay $50 to get a track on the CD, have 1000 CDs pressed (only 100 for the first run, so that way, the 50 bucks the band pays for covers the entire pressing cost).

Sell them shits for 10 bucks a pop, The first thousand dollars made would go to pay for another pressing of 1000, and the rest could help pay for RTTP.



also SHIRTS.


Aaron, do you have a shirt design finalized? Def star is going to raise their prices soon, so now is the time to order from them. You'd make money to put towards the website expenses, and it's publicity.

$4 dollars per shirt, let's say you order 50 shirts (200 bucks total), they will probably all sell at 10 bucks a piece. Which will land you about 500 bucks.

200 of the 500 pays you back for your innitial investment, and then the remaining money can go towards 50 more shirts, and website upkeep.


I'm sure you already know all the math though.



toggletoggle post by Sinistas   at May 14,2007 2:46pm
I'm pretty sure DS would be up for the comp.



toggletoggle post by RichHorror  at May 14,2007 2:49pm
Aaron should pay me for my time on this message board.



toggletoggle post by Niccolai   at May 14,2007 2:50pm
Yea right, you're the reason we don't have any pre-teen girls on this board anymore Rich.



toggletoggle post by RichHorror  at May 14,2007 2:51pm
Um, ConquerTheBaphomet.



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at May 14,2007 3:23pm
Yeah, $50 is no problem, so count us in for this too



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at May 14,2007 3:23pm
just please please please let's get it professionally mastered this time



toggletoggle post by Niccolai   at May 14,2007 3:43pm
The body farm will definately do this once we have something recorded.



toggletoggle post by sxealex   at May 14,2007 3:46pm
everyone should go to dead air for this.
it takes like 2 hours to record a song there.
you can record live.
it cost 20 billz an hour.
quality is decent.
sound would be faily consistent.
I DARE YOU ALL.

NeverStaySober is def gettin in on this shizzazzle... fo shizzles.



toggletoggle post by RichHorror  at May 14,2007 3:56pm
IWEIPH would throw a track in for this. Where's Dead Air?



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at May 14,2007 4:15pm
out in Amherst

it's the guy from Ampere, Orchid, and Bucket Full of Teeth aka Will Killingsworth

good dude, can do this quickly


we could all share gear and have a day where like 20 bands just shoot through a bunch of songs...

sounds good.

I think this time we just get a few CDs each, then give the rest to Aaron to sell via paypal and stuff?

That way he gets money. Seems the best way to make sure he gets money is to have the CDs come from a central source...



toggletoggle post by Niccolai   at May 14,2007 5:22pm
Only if he promises to make shirts.



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at May 14,2007 5:24pm
Shirts would be CHEAP to make

one color = $4 a shirt

I'd buy one for like $6-10



toggletoggle post by Niccolai   at May 14,2007 5:40pm
if they were $10-12 shipped off the website, I'd be all over it.



toggletoggle post by watchmaker666  at May 14,2007 6:15pm
The problem with that idea is it would take up even more of Revs time. Shipping crap out all the time is a PITA



toggletoggle post by BlackoutRick at May 14,2007 6:19pm
We down for the comp or any benefit show.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 14,2007 6:57pm
well... these are all good ideas, but...
1) I don't like bleeding a stone. bands are poor and I don't like taking money from those that I support and who have no money. so Alex, keep your $20 and give me another copy of your CD for my portfolio (though I don't know why you needed 4MP pictures to make them into thumbnails.

2) for shirts/hoodies, I would rather spend a couple dollars more to get better quality than crap. I'm going to see about liberated images most likely cause they do a lot of the "quality" work I've seen lately. My friend making the design graduates in a week or so and I'll probably get the design then. In september, I want to make long sleeves with returntothepit on one arm and hobbyrocker on the other.

3) a comp is a great idea.. something with a hook too like a new exclusive goratory track with jay drumming for them. *hint**hint* but I wouldn't want to make money off of it. I would rather them be given out as free promo like the last CD. I was so proud of all your effort on that one.

goratory track with jay drumming for them.



toggletoggle post by atthehaunted  at May 14,2007 8:03pm
What about benefit shows? Their cheap and pretty easy to get together. If like 20 people or more gives around $10 we could rent a hall and the rest will pay for itself. Unless there's been other fee's since Chariots of Fire Fest but other then that we had to pay a cop and that was out of the money we made. We paid the bands with the money from the show and it was a great success so much so that we are doing it this year. Also I found out about RTTP from the Chariots fest I was like wtf the fuck is this flyer for grabbed and went to the site the next day and have been coming back ever since. Maybe an RTTP fest would bring in some big bux especially since the site is well known.



toggletoggle post by atthehaunted  at May 14,2007 8:03pm
A benefest sort of.



toggletoggle post by atthehaunted  at May 14,2007 8:08pm
In fact I bet alot of the bands would play for free and use the extra money to get some decent headliners. Like say All Shall Perish



toggletoggle post by fishcakes at May 14,2007 9:24pm
we will play



toggletoggle post by atthehaunted  at May 14,2007 10:06pm
when we get a full line up we'd def play.



toggletoggle post by brian_dc  at May 14,2007 10:56pm
I will kill unimportant humans for aaron. I'll put my band's name down for that.



toggletoggle post by the_taste_of_cigarettes  at May 15,2007 12:19am
yeah a comp sounds mad sick



toggletoggle post by KeynoteCompany  at May 15,2007 5:36am
I'd pick up a shirt or comp most likely.



toggletoggle post by mOe  at May 15,2007 9:59am
Mercury Switch will be recording this Summer, i'm sure we'd be fine with throwing a track on a comp or even playing a benefit show



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 15,2007 10:04am
where are your dreds now!



toggletoggle post by JDDomination   at May 15,2007 10:17am
We would get in on any of this: cd, benefit show, shirts. Whatever, put something together and DOM is in.

If it doesn't have Rich Horror content it isn't an official RTTP long sleeve.



toggletoggle post by xanonymousx at May 15,2007 8:23pm
i still want a rttp sweatshirt do you have any mediums or smalls by chance? cause it only says on the buy $tuff page you have large....



toggletoggle post by pam   at May 15,2007 8:23pm
It should have your face right on the front. Or that picture of you lifting your shirt up.



toggletoggle post by RichHorror  at May 15,2007 8:25pm
Clearly. Aaron is dropping the ball AGAIN.



toggletoggle post by atthehaunted  at May 15,2007 8:26pm
How aboot u have to buy a shirt to get into the benefest show and if not u have to pay? hmmmmmm



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 15,2007 8:26pm
we could make every shirt smell like old dudes. would that do it?



toggletoggle post by xanonymousx at May 15,2007 8:27pm
if that were to happen the shirt would sell out in seconds upon release.
rich will become even more infamous than he already is!

Wrong AGAIN, Aaron. You have to make it smell not like old men, but like failure.



toggletoggle post by atthehaunted  at May 15,2007 9:02pm
Ya but the shirts won't be like $5 either u have to make them a little more since it's buy one for two ya dig?



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at May 15,2007 9:05pm
funny, I read the comment about not paying for shows and then I had to pay for my first show since fallen friends.
