hello :) thanks already for advice

Greetings Martin

In this topic, let us know about the things you need, career direction you choose and anything else about you. We'll reply you as soon as possible. Keep in touch with us in this topic.

i am turntable dj in electronica (so if possible could i have information about how i get a turntable and price?)

have my own band... besides of that i dont really know what direction i wanna go lol, what do u suggest is most fun? i wanna be famous artist, but id like to learn some electronica things with books..

You can get the Turntables in any Music Instrument shop, and sometimes in Jam Places as well. The standard price is 1500, so try and find one closest to that price if you go looking for it.

I will try and get in contact with Matthijs Vaes (or you may do so yourself), a real life friend of mine (so he's Dutch as well) who is the band leader of Signal Pain, who are in the top 100 of Electronica. He might know a lot of the genre, and he owns some Electronica Clubs that you might be able to play in sooner or later.

cool thanks!
ive been looking at the music shops in brussels but i dont see turntable for sale anywhere...

also question what is best way to schedule a concert? how many songs, special things or????

and what is the best thing to do? give one or 2 concert in a town and travel further or? and how many concerts a week?

I just wrote a manual on designing a show :)

As for the concerts, in early stages you CAN do two shows in a city, but later on I would advice against it.

There is a limit on the amount of tickets you can sell in one Popoyear (56 real days).

The advantage of playing more shows is that your fame goes up quicker, and from dreadful fame onwards, you start to sell records. (I think I released my first single when I was 180 days ingame, so don't expect big things from the start, then again, I didn't have these newbie manual and could have done certain things better).

ok i found some books about history but they are all to expensive.. i only have 250$ at this moment.. i guess id have to wait :)

nice guides by the way!

If you hitch, Martin, to Berlin, then Rome and Dubrovnik, we may meet at 9th July and i can give you the books and instruments you need.

i have a concert the 7th, or should i cancel and hitch?

oh and to hitch i just move my character to the hiway i want to go to?

Don't cancel the concert, as that hurts your fame.

I might go thorugh my network list and get someone else to deliver the books. But! Its hard to give someone books with just interacting. Having an apartment is way easier.

You open up the doors, we drop the books there, you pick them up and read them. That is standard procedure really.

25 tickets sold yet, you won't lose a big deal and you won't lose much fame. If i were, you i'd prefer hitching.

And yes, all you have to do is going the travel route and wait : )

maybe im to lazy to hitch and i just take plane :p
ill see after concert maybe...

also, should i let my house open or closed? (moms house) lol

Depends on what's in there. If nothing's there, noone can steal stuff. If there are books, items etc. Close it.

And do mind, airplanes cost money, and take your health and mood down. It might be cheaper and better to hitchhike and dont lose money at all.

Martin's name makes me hungry.

hehe i cook waffles :)

i started hitching im now on E40 Brussels-Berlin.

I'll be in Istanbul afternoon, and in Dubrovnik by 9th July. Hope to see you there ; )

will i be in dubr... by the 9th?

I hope so : ) If you won't, we can meet in Rome too. That'll be easier for you. You'll be at Berlin this afternoon and probably tomorrow you may be in Rome.

BTW, i advice you to take a look at my band's schedule and arrange shows in same cities, same dates. So we'll be in same town for long and it'll be easier to recieve aid ; )

ok ill do that now, ill adjust my concerts to yours :)

i need to buy a turntable as quick as possible but i only have 400$

also u think i should arrange a concert in dubr... the 9th or not?

I don't know, it's up to you. You know .. : )

also last question for now: the cities u go to u travel with hitching or by plain?

Always hitching. Never use planes, especially second class, except for long distances like New York - Moscow or Melbourne - London..

ok i mainly set some new concerts at same time of you in same city... why can i only choose 20 or 22 h and u can choose other time?
