We played at a really nice venue last night. There's major construction right there at their doorstep and it's hurting attendance. A friend of mine stopped by there and had a heckuva time finding it. Does anybody have any ideas or experience getting PR? Maybe if I approach some major media sources (newspapers, radio, etc.) I might have better luck getting them some PR than if the bar itself tries to get PR. We've played at a few really nice places that went out of business recently. Lots of factors to that, the recession and the smoking ban are primary, but throw in a major obstacle then you've got some serious problems staying in business. Other than having really good bands (like us) play at your venue what ideas do you have to help promote a venue?
