I've been wondering why is it that the Official VAMPS Myspace profile is not posting bulletins like crazy about the concert? Why aren't they promoting like the people here are? If the person in charge of the profile is the person you are talking about then why doesn't this person get an assistant? I'm just curious as to why they are not promoting this more.

I go to a lot of concerts here in NYC with bands that come from Europe and whenever they don't promote, they get a half full venue which is sad and bad for them. Last time I saw that was at the Sabath concert and I felt bad for them and angry with the so called fans for not showing up, but the band apparently had not promoted much. And this was a reunion of a band that's been around for ages.

I think VAMPS is lucky to have such loving fans, very lucky because otherwise they wouldn't sell any tickets at all with the kind of promotion they've been doing.

Sorry everyone, didn't mean to ramble. I'll stop now. If I offended anyone I apologize.

*sigh* To be quite honest, I have been wondering the very same thing myself. However, we have no time to change the way they've been promoting stuff, so we can only work harder to pick up the slack, right? I mean, I'm sure the VAMPROSE staff have got a lot going on right now and I'm not going to profess I know everything there is about promoting a band and all that that entails. I don't know what the issues are on VAMPROSE's end, either, so I can't really say, "You guys suck at promoting!" *lol* I'm not saying that's what you're saying, either.

However, I've just resolved to doing everything I possibly can to help VAMPS out. Unfortunately, I can't do this alone, either. Calling radio stations, although tedious, is crucial. I hope you guys will consider helping me out, I mean, like I said before, I really can't do this alone. The more of us that call, the better the chances VAMPS have of being played on the air.

Thanks for your concerns Oscura and know that you're not the only one. ;)

Much VAMPS-love,
