here is an alternate flyer design. u could shrink 3 or 4 flyers on a page with word or publisher or any graphics package

i suggest shrinking the poster designs so u get the 4 different styles on a page and print on2 white paper then photocopy on2 different coloured paper

thats gr8 23, i'm just trying 2 plan a layout 4 the venue as we might need 2 loose some table and chairs 2 clear space if there is going 2 b a lot of folk coming, but that would then mean more ppl standing which would persuade more ppl 2 start dancing

i'm sure u can persuade the other 5 2 come

zaraa knows some1 who is bringing along 14 ppl, with a few more possibles, and she has another couple of friends coming and met a few ppl last nite who said they r going, so the numbers r adding up

there will b a few ppl there who either ain't very big fans, new 2 prince, or not fans at all, so ppl who don't like prince that much won't b the only 1's there. the music will b fairly varied and i'm used 2 surprising ppl that don't really like prince as the selected music will both cater 4 hardcore fans, casual fans and non fans alike. with the related artists stuff thrown in, it won't seem so "princey" 2 non fans, with the time, sheila e, vanity, etc mixed in

i'm sure u can persuade them 2 come, just tell folks who don't like prince that there will b a load of folk there who ain't fans and r just coming 4 a laugh. zaraa tells me she knows a load of women going just 4 a pull. she works at a hospital, so wait till she gets the flyers and posters up there, we should hopefully have a nice group of nurses turning up (and i am praying they will wear the uniform!)

You can't lose tables and chairs, there's no storage space for them. We could move them around to make more room though. There aren't that many anyway, so there will be plenty of standing room or space to dance.
If you're passing the venue, go in and have a look. It'll probably look a lot different from when I took you and zaara in there, especially without any alcohol this time!
There may be a buffet available on the night, nothing special, just a little something to help soak up the alcohol and keep you all drinking.
It's looking good. Should be a very good turn out.

that would b good. if u can print a few posters and flyers and stick em in the likes of fopp and other record stores, clothes shops and student hangouts it tends 2 work

if any1 can get any posters put up in colleges or universitys it would b a big help and get word around

other things that can help r if ppl have email lists of folks that would potentially b interested, just email them the details or flyer

hopefully katt will have a small website up and running later as something we can point 2

i remember the place more from the end of the nite and it did seem quite spacious from what i remember, with kinda seperated areas with seats and tables, which could work out pretty well if its busy, so folks can sit at the sides, and in the middle is the standing/dancing/ area

i'll pop in b4 the meet and c what else i can think off

r u at uni? can u ask around and c if u can find any1 who can get posters up at other colleges and uni's, particularly in edinbugh?

i reckon advertising 2 the student market will bring us the most ppl apart from advertising online in specific prince websites, as students go out so often and r always looking 4 something different 2 do, and as many students arent originally from the local area, it can also make them aware of the local goings on, and they r likely 2 bring a few other students with them

hmm i dont know anyone at uni in edinburgh so couldnt help u there, but i think if someone local just goes to the uni's there and sticks em up, we'd b guaranteed good numbers. Ill put some up in strathcldye and caley uni's, and i can also get some mates to put some up in the colleges.

ok cool. maybe u could ask around and c if any1 has contacts in edinburgh. certainly there will b plenty of ppl there that will have contacts thru this way, it's just a case of finding the right ppl. it might b a case of asking a few ppl if they know of contacts and then they can put u in touch. it might b as simple as sending an email out with the poster or flyer and asking if some1 can pass it 2 some1 in edinburgh 2 print out and stick up
