Music Career Special Report Helps Bands To Make Their Live Shows More Successful

CARY, IL, September 08, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ — Tom Hess Music Corporation announces the release of a free new music career special report that helps musicians and bands to attract a higher number of fans to their gigs and to advance the band’s career further with each live show.

“In addition to having played at world tours in front of audiences of 30,000+ people, I also work with musicians and bands from around the world helping them to get the most from their live shows and expand their music careers,” says Tom Hess, a world renowned music career mentor and touring guitarist.

He continues: “One of the most common challenges that bands have is attracting a large number of fans to attend their gigs. One of the reasons for this problem is due to the band putting too much of its focus only into its music and not enough on improving the actual performance of that music. Although the problem of not having enough people coming out to see a band’s gigs is a common one, there are several fairly simple solutions that can be used to overcome this challenge. Since I am asked about this issue a lot, I have published a free special report about how to get more people to attend a band’s live show in order to answer this multifaceted question in detail.”

The report reveals that in order to get more people to attend a band’s live shows, it is necessary to focus not only on promotion of the gig but also on several elements of a band’s stage presence, performance practicing, making the band’s shows special enough to make them appealing to watch, plus a lot more.

Hess says: “For a typical music fan, who is not a fanatic of the band yet, it is much more appealing to stay at home on a weekend night to surf the Internet, watch a movie or listen to music on his computer rather than going through the trouble of traveling to a band’s show. This is true even if the fan likes the band and their music. In order for a large enough number of fans to actually come to the gig, the band must give them a substantial enough reason to attend. Most bands fail to do so and the results are predictably disappointing. On the other hand, if a band taps into the desires and needs of their ideal fan and delivers upon that, the band’s chances of a successful turnout at every gig go way up.”

LateRooms.com – See A-Ha Bow Out in Munich

MUNICH, GERMANY, September 08, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ — Scandinavian pop sensations A-Ha are set to stop in Munich on their last ever tour this autumn.

The Norwegian trio have announced their retirement from the music industry at the end of this year, with their final trip around Europe due to culminate with three sold-out concerts in Oslo in December.

Before those dates, they will play at Munich’s Olympiahalle on October 18th.

This means fans staying in Munich hotels will have a chance to see A-Ha perform hits such as Take On Me and The Sun Always Shines on TV live for the last time.

According to the band’s website, the Ending On a High Note tour will be an opportunity to “experience the music and live energy first-hand” before the group bow out.

Formed in 1982, A-Ha went on to become Norway’s most internationally successful musical export after the release of their debut album Hunting High and Low in 1985.

This record spawned Take On Me, a song that became synonymous with the emergence of MTV as a result of its innovative music video, which was directed by Steve Barron.

It was also ubiquitous on mainstream radio and has been covered by countless other artists. According to the group’s official website, the song has been played three million times on US radio stations.

A-Ha continued to record and release music throughout the 1990s and 2000s, with their latest album Foot of the Mountain appearing in June last year. The band have confirmed that this is their final album, with the single Butterfly, Butterfly (The Last Hurrah) due to be their official swan song.

Tickets for the Munich concert are selling quickly, but some are still available for EUR50.05 (GBP41.70) plus booking fee.

For more information on this event, visit the A-Ha website.

Samantha Lockwood to Portray Screen Legend ‘Mary Pickford’ in Biograph’s Docu-drama of a Screen Legend

LOS ANGELES, CA, September 07, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ — Samantha Lockwood portrays Pickford in this docu-drama about Hollywood’s first lady. Besides Samantha’s incredible resemblance to the screen legend, Samantha comes from showbiz royalty herself, with actor parents. Father Gary Lockwood, who also stars with this daughter in the film portraying theatre magnet David Belasco, is widely known as a Sci-Fi icon as Dr. Frank Poole in Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey”, “Star Trek” and well as many other films, and mother, actress/producer and businesswoman, Denise DuBarry. Samatha has recently been seen as Johnny Knoxville’s girlfriend in the feature film “Lords of Dogtown” and as Dakota in “CSI: New York” and produced andstarred in the short film “That Guy” directed by Peter Winther and starring Peter Facinelli. Most recently Lockwood stars in her latest movie to date “Shoot The Hero” with Jason Mewes and Danny Trejo, which debuts October 1st on national Pay per View and On Demand and other outlets worldwide.

Recently added to the cast of The Pickford Project is actress Taryn Southern who will portray icon Dorothy Gish. Southern is currently appearing in the films, Pound of Flesh and Battle: Los Angeles. Playing Dorothy’s sister Lillian will be Aimee Lynn Chadwick who starred in the horror classics, Return of the Living Dead parts 4 and 5 and, is an accomplished vocalist in her own right having opened for such acts as Mandy Moore and Vitamin C.

‘America’s Sweetheart’ is produced by Biograph Company, ironically the company that Pickford first began her film career, back in 1909. Biograph, founded in 1895, is the oldest movie company in America, and revolutionized the motion picture industry. Biograph also has the unique history of filming the Pope for the first time at the Vatican, filming the launch of the Titanic, and producing the first movie in Hollywood, as well as the first movie in Los Angeles.

The film deals with Pickford’s life, her personal and career struggles, and takes you back to a time when movies were born, from her discovery by mentor David Belasco, her days at Biograph Studios, marriage with movie hero Douglas Fairbanks, and formation of her company United Artists, with Fairbanks, Charlie Chaplin and famed director D. W. Griffith, to her life’s end at her estate ‘Pickfair”. It is a unique film in the sense that everything portrayed in the film is accurate as can be, and inside information from silent movie legends such as Blanche Sweet and Lillian Gish is included as well.

Biograph’s CEO Thomas R. Bond II is also the film’s producer and from a show business lineage as well, being son of the late actor Tommy Bond, who played “Butch” the bully in the original “Little Rascals”, and “Jimmy Olsen” in the original “Superman”, and actress Polly Bond, who was also a former Miss California. Bond started out in radio at the age of 13 years old as the youngest broadcaster in the nation, and went onto television, and produced his first feature at 19 years old. Bond has been in the entertainment industry for over 30 years.

Bond states about the new film. “We are very excited to have Samantha on board as well as her father, screen icon Gary Lockwood, for this exciting historic film. We are proud of this will tell a true and accurate story of Miss Pickford, and to perpetuate the history of Hollywood and of early motion picture history.”
