I spent a nice weekend around several friends in the local music scenes of Asheville, NC and my city. It made me wonder what the local scenes sound like throughout the Sewer.
I propose a swap of CD's featuring some of the best local people you are aware of. Maybe you have a band. Maybe, like me, you really dig folks in your local scene and would like other people to hear their stuff.
I have at least three artists I wouldn't mind introducing other people to.
I have glanced at some of the other swap threads and they all seemed to be mix tapes. Instead of mixes I was thinking this could be a way to support the local musicians we all know and love by buying a CD or two and sharing them with a fellow Chewer. First rule would be professionally produced discs. Fair enough?
I've never spearheaded something like this so I would like some suggestions on how to run it while I peruse some of the other swap threads. I am assuming a good way to start would be to give a cut-off date for joining. Then I guess I would throw all the names into a hat and pair people up. Then I guess those pairs can PM each other pertinent mailing info and off it goes? Then the thread is revisited with reviews and thoughts?
As this is a way to expand musical horizons does anyone have a suggestion as to whether to include likes/dislikes or something of the sort?
Anyone game?
