I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
A Badge of Friendship are live music promoters dedicated to bringing new, fresh music to gig-goers young and old.A Badge of Friendship began because there seemed to be a plethora of great underground bands waiting to be given a chance to play live around London.
If you would like to play for one of our nights, please sendus a message with links to your music and we will check it out. We try and reply to all messages but since we get so many it takes us a while.
PLEASE NOTE: We promote alternative indie and rock bands. Please check out our influences and top friends and if you still feel you're of this vibe then please send us a message. We do not accept submissions from "new/shit" emo, bands who list The Libertines, Babyshambles, The Kooks, Razorlight etc as their influences, pub rock, pop or hip-hop bands.
