I submitted my dare. I also added that they would be in San Diego. Hopefully he will take my challenge and they will get a little airplay.
Yay~! I'll summit one too!
Great! Hopefully someone else on this forum is in the San Diego area and will join in the fun.
Another thing I found on their website was a Sunday program called Coup d'etat. You send them a list of 10 songs that you would play if you had an hour of air time. If your list is selected, you go to the studio and get to play your songs! I'm working on a list of songs that VAMPS performs.
I don't know if this is standard or not....but I received an email from the station requesting that I resubmit my 10 songs. So I did that tonight. They will be making a decision later on in June as to who gets to come in and play their music.

RE: Vamps Sponsors & Promoting Ideas
Another thought......does anyone know how many minutes you can legally copy of a song? We are all saying that part of the problem is no one has heard of them.
It does not cost much to buy a pack of CDs. If we could legally burn...say the first minute of their singles.....and hand them out to people (I realize I am stereotyping) who may be interested in their music along with the flyer. Just another idea.

That's a good idea. I think 45 seconds of the song should be sufficient enough. I mean, that's the amount of time the VAMPS clips are on their website, so yeah...

Well, LEGALLY, I don't know. I'm not sure that handing out copies counts as fair use.
However, if you only copy about 45 minutes like H.P said then I think you might be okay. I don't think VAMPS will sue you for that.

Hopefully not....lol. Seeing as the reason we are doing this is to help them out.

You can also (at least for people online) link them to the VAMPS myspace profile so they can listen there.

Mitsuwa Market removed its advertising bins and has a community bulletin board instead so I taped a flyer on it. Mine was the only one in color so it really stands out!
The flyers are the same as the ones on my car....and will be on my t-shirt hopefully after tomorrow. I have painfully discovered that fabric markers and myself do not get along.....lol.
Here is my flyer. Thanks to Tokio for letting use the VAMPS logo from this site.
My Japanese friend, who I FINALLY saw after about a month and half, was willing to take my flyers to Orange County (inbetween San Deigo and LA) and put them out at some of the Japanese markets that she shops at. She goes up every other Sunday so I will mail her more. So our advertising is spreading out a little bit.
