I have some plans to promote NFO (If it's OK w/ U guys)

Here are some of my ideas that I want to run by you first.

01) A fan site.
I've started designing a fan site which covers NFO news, info on the album (and future albums), maybe lyrics, the artists, photos, related sites (ie your web sites), related projects (other projects the NFO members are doing, albums, gigs etc) , reviews, views, coments.
It will contain a link to the NFO site, banners which people can download and put on their sites and a link to join the yahoo group.

Tell me what you think. Do I have your permission to build this site, if so would you autherise it and make it the offical NFO fan site. You could all post me your news and what you'd want your fans to know?
I won't make it without your consent.

02) Business cards. I was thinking about making a batch of them with the offical NFO web site address on. That way when I meet someone at a club or whatever and the subject comes up I could hand them a card.
Is this okay? I was thinking of having on the card the same thing I have on my signature.

03) I have another idea but first I have to know, Is handing out flyers in the street against the law in England?

04) I'm thinking of getting an NFO tatoo on my sholder. I've never had a tatoo before (I've never really liked them) But i thought an NFO tatoo would rule. What do you think?

let me know how u feel about this, Ell.

Take care guys.

Wow man, dunno bout the tat but everything else sounds like the best idea Ive heard all day. We could all make buisiness cards & flyers for our own home towns. I dont think its illegal to give them out in England, just illegal post them up in the street. smile

God bless ya man, your a great help

No probs. I feel obliged. Prince was releasing music slowly and hardly any music that come out these days by other artists is any good. I was getting bored. Then U guys came along, fed my facination for home grown music and didn't charge me.

That's something I want to be a part of. As soon as I've recorded a song that dosn't suck it's yours biggrin

I'll get to work on that site. If you could all send me pics and some facts about yourself (where you were born, what kind of music your into etc) It would make the site really intresting and fans will be able to know who it is they are listening too. But there is no rush so send them any time.

I was wondring if someone could tell me the history of NFO. When it started, who's idea it was, who came up with the name, who was onboard first, the track listing for the album while it was still being compiled, etc?

Also I was wondring if when the next album is compiled (which I know won't be for a while yet as the first album is practically brand new) could I have some in put with the final production. Ie, the track order, seigeing the tracks back to back and then spliting them into seperate MP3s. (I'm really good at that.)

Please let me know. I'll understand if you want to keep it within the artists circle. That's cool.

This is awesome! You guys know how great this is? It's much better to have a fan promote us, ya know? People just react to it better. So, thank you sooo much, Camille4U, YOU ROCK!!!

About all our info, there are quite a few threads here to look that stuff up. I will try to find them for you, but if you list all posts from the beginning in this forum, you're likely to find all the info you need.

As soon as my remix track is done, I'm going to update my website, and send out an email to all the people I know. I have a list I've compiled over the last year of people who wanted me to let them know if I have anything new coming out, so I figured this would be a good time for an update, so to speak.

Fantastic. Thanks for the info. I'm looking forward to hearing more of your music (and all the other NFO members.)
