...and that's not the only perk. She could also use the pages to namedrop Travis and/or promote them in general. You know, spread the word :o)
Uuuhh! that'd be so cool!!!!! |

My pal over here works for the local Aberdeen & area newspaper, Evening Express, as the lifestyle/ents editor and she tried to get an interview with Travis before the played Aberdeen for New Year. She was promised a telephone interview with Fran, but then the management company pulled it.
I've another pal who works for the local radio station (albeit not the one sponsoring the New Year show). He was also promised a phone interview with Fran, but then had it pulled.
I don't blame the band, but I think the management seem pretty poor at getting the local media on their side when Travis were doing a very high profile show in Aberdeen. |

Thank you so much everyone!! You guys are the best! No need for the pickle juice though. I'm a good girl. :)
My dream is to one day interview Travis and Steve Yzerman, so maybe it'll happen now!! (Although I'd probably pass out if I was in the same room as Steve Yzerman...he's been my hero since I was like 3 years old, lol). I've been told I get to write a column on anything I want, so even if I can't set up an interview with Fran, I'm still writing about them when they come to Detroit no matter what!! :D And I'll be sure to post it!!! We're online, so once I start writing, I'll put up some links. |

Hey, what a great opportunity being able to choose what you write about - a lot of journalists have very tight guidelines......and if you get a chance to plug Travis, even better!!! |

LOL! Look at my avatar. Do I look Dodgy to you? :P Although, according to Ric, Kayte and I are members of the She-Devil Motorcycle Gang of Detroit.
Maybe if I came in looking like this it would be a different story:
I do have a pair of red sunglasses that look like those though! (They're my Grandma's) LOL!
Ooooh crikey, the resemblance is sooo striking.... NOT! Nice specs though, haha! |
