About Me

Welcome all to the "Alternative Wayz Promotions"
Myspace Layouts - Myspace Editor


The first thing that Alternative Wayz Promotions is going to do at the moment,is to offer any bands who need a P.A. sound system for hire.Or any part of a P.A. Sound system.A list of equipment will be put up here very soon.
Also Alternative Wayz Promotions,is working with "Folk Acoustic Revolution",and the band "Freespirit",and can offer A Tour bus for hire. Its a 1979 petrol VW six seater combi bus type 253 with plenty of space for all the bands equipment,and P.A. equipment. (used to be a 9 seater,but we took out one bench seat ).Person who is hireing must be 25 have a driving liecence for at least 5 years.
Also Alternative Wayz Promotions,has a room,which is being used as a Practice Room - Recording Studio,if any band out there needs somewhere to play.Please contact Graham on any of these matters for availability and costs.
I"m Graham from London,came over to live in Austria,around 12 years ago.yes I do speak English,and my Deutsch is shite!!! I"ve been doing a lot of band and club promoting in the past in London and in Graz,making Festivals and music nights in various forms.Now I had found the Lochness,and found a chance to promote BANDS here. After doing a Freespirit gig at the Lochness in 2006,I got to know Peter quite well,and started to ask question about making "LIVE" music events at the Lochness. My other project "Folk Acoustic Revolution" first got started last year (2006),and asked Peter if we could make a Folk Festival,which had been held on 8th September 2007.
We had 4 bands playing
1) Cinuas from Wien
2) Freespirit from NÖ/London
3) Desperate To Amuse from Graz
4) Smuggle Goods Into The Country from Vienna
Then I had an idea to make a warm up gig at the Lochness,the day before Graz 4th Folk Festival,and asked if it could be held at the Lochness.The answere was yes.So on the 3rd May we had the Warm up folk gig,with 2 bands
1) Esha Ness from Germany
2) Living Läche from Wien
look for more information on www.myspace.com/folkacousticrevolution
Anyway it carried on from there.Talking and e-mails later,I had become the Wednesday night "Live Music" promoter.
March 14th - ON/OFF and Klaus Mit K
March 28th - Desperate To Amuse and Hari Gonaus
April 11th - Fjort and Coincedence
April 25th - Sympathy For Strawberry and Lausch
May 3rd - Warm up Folk Gig with Eshaness and Living Läche
May 9th - Frontal and Skeptic Eleptic
May 16th - Jonzered and Namesti
May 23rd - To Be Continued and Bound To Fail
June "Summer Pause"
The Wednesday night was changed to a Friday to see if the number of people coming would get better. Autumn and Winter Bands @ The Lochness Live Music Club on Fridays.
All on "TOP" friends list of Lochness LIVE go and listen!!!
September 14th - Lost In A Lie NÖ and Jenny Jazz OÖ
September 28th - Klaus Mit K NÖ and Mad Circus Graz
October 19th - Julis Reise NÖ and Hellsinki ÖO
October 26th - Marigolds Italy and Jonzered NÖ
November 2nd - 5 Hours To Live NÖ and Mugshot OÖ
November 16th - Bloodshed Remains NÖ and Calderah NÖ
Then all Lochness Live music was cancelled due to not enough people coming out to see.So I lost a job,and The Lochness Myspace has become redundent , so I have changed it to "Alternative Wayz Promotions",and hope sometime I can find another venue in Austria to promote live music.We will see what the fucture brings next year (2008)
