My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 08/03/2006
Band Website: http://www.myspace.com/wtpmusic
Band Members: WTP Music is the promotion name for Wayne Poppletons music promotions

It is my aim to improve the music scene by not only helping local bands develop within my home city of Wakefield, but also by bringing in talent from elsewhere to encourage the scene to flourish. This has lead to me taking local bands outside of their home town as a great way for bands to gain exposure is by gig swapping with bands from afar.
My main emphasis with all my gigs is an ethical one. Live music will die unless people support it. By that I mean folk go and see bands other than their mates' band. And this mentality starts with the bands themselves. If a band is booked as a support band, they do just that; "support" the other bands. Buggering off after playing your set, and potentially taking half the crowd with you gets you nowhere. If bands support each other, then their fan base can only grow.

Influences: By only being Myspace "Friends" with the bands, venues, and companies I regularly associate with, it enables people to name drop and find them easier :-)
