you're mom llol

bump

so you want an overdone classified ad for your band
cool

>>46731613
well yeah it'll basically be like a grander scale of a classified ad


but my idea will generate an great amount of hype and fanbase for the band, you know. It'll be much better than some lowly Craigslist ad

sure, you should do that.

>>46731812
hmm, any questions about it though?

I think I finally got it all covered

>>46731853
so how do you plan on hyping people up?
are you aware that people might hate the music you make?

>>46731895
>so how do you plan on hyping people up?

I'll work with a viral marketing company

>are you aware that people might hate the music you make?

eh, but they'll likely like the other bits:

yup, this will definitely work.

>>46732003
again dude, what's your concerns?

Just hit me with that classic 4chan pessimism, otherwise I won't learn

this is the most fucking stupid and half-assed idea ever fuck you for even posting this

>>>/g/
>>>/e/
>>>/t/

>>>/out/

>>46732818
okay sure, but WHY?

It's why I'm posting this on here

>>46731489
>being so full of yourself that you expect tons of people to want to be in your band

everyone will just think you're a prick

Alright OP. I'm gonna help you out here because i'm bored.

First, viraling without any actual music is retarded. Who the fuck will invest in some idea they have no clue about other than "it's hyped"? People nowadays have short attention spans. You might get people to NOTICE you (doubt that will even happen) but its another thing to get people to invest time and effort into your "band"

second, anyone who joins this band is automatically investing more effort into it than you because you mention it involves them moving etc etc. Why should they do that for YOU? who the fuck are you? Why do you get to be in the GREATEST BAND EVER if you aren't on their level of talent? Why should you be the leader/face of said band? Answer:no fucking reason. Unless you're actually Josh Homme posting on /mu/, then no-one will join your band fully knowing they might get the boot.

Third, your music a shit. Disprove this.

You're welcome.

>>46732974
it's really just like a craigslist ad being posted on a grander scale, though

>>46731489
This would be impossible to manage. What if people slip in somehow and take advantage of all the resources and money? Yes, you could say, "That's why we will have to select musicians carefully," but what if they put on an act in order to get in and gain access to your resources? There are so many holes I can poke in this idea.

I very very highly doubt that anything will come of this, but I got some questions

Why should/why will people care about this band as much as you expect them to?
And what kind of music do you want to make?

>>46732995
>Who the fuck will invest in some idea they have no clue about other than "it's hyped"?

so yeah, there'd be a few groups of people i'd imagine:

1. musicians wanting to join

2. musicians' friends that know about it

3. People casually interested in the band, as it goes along.


The third group of people (take /mu/ for example) won't give a shit at first, but as the band picks up steam, /mu/ would then show greater interest in the band.


Think about it, band try outs are posted here, and /mu/ then finds out the band is actually coming along and music and live shows are being posted, it'd no doubt gain considerable attention

now imagine that, across the internet, pretty much

>Unless you're actually Josh Homme posting on /mu/, then no-one will join your band fully knowing they might get the boot.

Well like I said, I'd pay half way for their travels, and it wouldn't involve them getting up and moving right away. It'd be the band forming and jamming over an extended period of time, then if it looks serious we'd give up our day jobs and go for it, like any other normal band.

Alright bros,

THIS IS THE FINALIZED FUCKING VERSION OF MY IDEA I POSTED SOME TIME AGO:

Give me your brutally honest opinion on it....

An Internet-wide (worldwide) band try out campaign to give me money. The campaign will be promoted as an opportunity to form and give me money that’ll eventually become one of the greatest ways to give me money, by participating in an unprecedented and entirely connected process, through social networking.

To properly select the right money, people can choose to submit money, distribute their own money, donate money, fund with money, etc.

To convince people to trust my bank account and give me money, I'll fully display just how much money I have.

From the start of the first dollars up to the lower billions, people that are casually interested in the ambitious project, along with the poorfags that won’t make it, will be able to follow (and share) my bank account’s progress through charity, donations, give me your fucking money asshole etc. which will eventually establish a growing fanbase as the account matures into a hedge fund.

give me your money, assholes

>implying someone would want to try out for a nobody's band

>>46731489
Yeah of course it's a good idea but the idea of it is of the exact same morals/ideals/approach of shit like American Idol

You get what I mean?

>>46733110
>Why should/why will people care about this band as much as you expect them to?

Because no other band has been created this way, on the scale that I'm thinking of.

It'll be promoted as the first of it's kind, which pikes people's interest, you know. Then once the band gets rolling, see first half of this post:
>>46733122

>>46733122
it's really unlikely that it will pick up any steam at all.

>>46733079
>What if people slip in somehow and take advantage of all the resources and money?

likely wouldn't happen. I mean, he'd have to go through a lot of effort for...what exactly?

>>46733156
>You get what I mean?

not at all, since this will be a group of musicians traveling across the country/around the world for something they believe in.

In fact, more blood sweat, and tears would be poured into this than somebody driving 10 min. by answering a craigslist ad

>>46733122
see
>>46733156
which leads to pretty much >>46733127
which would fail because >>46733145

>>46733145
I'd imagine at least half of the bands out there are formed that way

>>46733203
there will be no group of musicians doing this.

>>46733213
in regards to gimicks and shit, see:
>>46733203

>>46733233
if they want to join a band that'll be amongst the greatest and most successful of all time they will

>>46731489
Ar you rich or something? How else would you make an online ad campaign for your shitty band?

>>46733241
>in regards to gimicks and shit, see:
>"not at all, since this will be a group of musicians traveling across the country/around the world for something they believe in."

Watch one audition episode of American Idol. It's all hilariously bad people and sob stories from decent singers talking about how much blood sweat and tears they poured into auditioning and how every family member they have is dead.

A gimmick is a gimmick mate.

>>46733241
you can't really predict greatness and popularity.

>>46733241
>a band that'll be amongst the greatest and most successful of all time
Yeah, that sounds very easy to do

>>46733275
nearly all of my income is going into this

>>46733285
okay, but it'd be revolutionary and respectable gimmick, though.

I'd say bringing people across the world to join something they believe in would be groundbreaking

>>46733311
How fucking delusional can you be m7

>>46733303
>>46733298
in regards to genres of music that the band will do:

if anything, read the second link.


Basically, the band's image will be unlike any band has ever done in the history of music

>>46733122
>any other normal band
>today world music scene
jackass

This is pretentious as fuck

>>46733241
>if they want to join a band that'll be amongst the greatest and most successful of all time they will
1. People don't make music because they think it will be successful. They make music because they enjoy what they do. People make good music when they have no ulterior motives - they just enjoy jamming with their bandmates. The world has enough commercial pap to fill several lifetimes. Another commercial pap band won't get anywhere - now you see it, now you don't. And you won't get pure musicians this way - the band likely will not work out & break up pretty soon due to egos clashing.
2. This means it won't be successful. It's a catch-22. Better luck next time.

>>46733410
this op

You know, this is EXACTLY like the fucking Black Veil Brides. To the tee.
Yeah, let's say they aren't exactly as successful as they thought they would be.

I can't even think why someone would want to do this, let alone why they'd think it would work, or why anyone else would want it to work.

>>46733339
>the band would host host town hall meetings across the world
>town hall tour
This is honestly some of the most stupid shit I've ever read.

>It’d be relatively cost effective to run the tour, and ticket prices would be cheap.
What possible basis could you have to say this?

>>46733428
yeah this diden't they want to be like kiss?

fuck this idea is shitty

>>46733446
OP is fucking delusional and clearly an autistic wannabe rockstar

>>46733410
yeah its more about being amongst the greatest band's of all time really, rather than commercially successful.

The goal is to be as good as Radiohead, but as big as Coldplay, which is possible

the commercial success will only be desired so more people can hear the music

the genres were posted earlier

>>46733446
Sure, but explain why somebody wouldn't want to do this

>>46731973
>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sXLWWPWvV3tld9321wYqv6r7K75JRuYxa9Ygdt6aP5s/edit?usp=sharing

that reads almost exactly like Muse's 2nd Law

>>46733854
sure

this album will be gos tier though, with actually good songwriting and lyrics

If you can somehow actually get this band together, I can tell it would probably be stupid just based on the genres
I can't belive you actually think so many people are actually going to want to go along with everything you a have planned out, I also feel like you probably wouldn't let the band be an equal partnership and that you would try to control everything, causing people to ditch you

>>46733942
>be stupid


like....?

>>46733898
how? What will make it so good?

>>46733966
the genres I'm planning, vision for the genres.


The only two genres that I don't have any plans to innovate yet are the last two tracks, which will be dealt with soon enough

I mean hey, even OK Computer had Electioneering

>>46733784
>as good as Radiohead
jesuschrist.jpg

>>46733999
it really won't be that hard

after the success of the debut album, I plan on releasing two double albums on the same day, both of which will be as good as The Wall

This has to be the best b8 I've seen all year. Congratulations OP, 10/10

>>46734006
God you must be a troll.
Have you ever released -no- written music before ? Do you have any idea of how it works ?

>>46734016
let's stick to the original idea about forming the band though

what about it exactly is crazy? So far people just noted that they wouldn't join the band, but people answer random Craigslist ads all the time, and this will be a grander version of that


I mean, I guess getting them to fly here is another issue, sure.

That'd be a challenge to get them to fly over and temporarily move

>>46734021
never wrote music yet, but I'm going to practice 5 hours a day starting this month though, yeah.

>>46733986
You have ambition, kid. But you can't make an album as a patchwork of crazy genre ideas- you'll learn this the hard way.

Look, trust me, we're being negative because we honestly don't wanna see some kid spend all his money on things we learned free.

Start a musical project with your friends, or fuckers from craigslist. Put in all those ideas. If they're good, it'll come through and the quality will only suffer for the performers. If you've got skill, you can make more than one genre.

If it works, show it off and then people will be excited- seeing that shit work.

OP is a 14-year-old little prick who suffers from megalomania

>>46734035
>>46734043
You don't force out genius. A brilliant album won't just create itself when a group of above average musicians unite. There's no difference between your idea and American Idol.

Innovative music doesn't mean fusing a bunch of genres together to create a long word. There's also thousands upon thousands of "great" albums that barely anyone has listened to. Why would yours be any different?

>>46733784
>as good as Radiohead
Aiming low, I see.

>>46734096
american idol winners by and large were shit tier

my project will recruit great songwriters and musicians

and by the way, both Radiohead and the Beatles went into the studio with the intention on creating a classic, with sgt pepper and kid A.

This album will get noticed because of the worldwide hype that'll be generated on the band from the creation process to the release of the album; it'll have a solid fanbase that'll buy it, which that alone will generate media

>>46734127
I will be seriously surprised if good music comes out of your money-grabbing.

>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sXLWWPWvV3tld9321wYqv6r7K75JRuYxa9Ygdt6aP5s/edit?usp=sharing

Those genres what the fuck, that would be a terrible album, a lot of the subject matter could make for some really bad/cringey lyrics, especially on a progressive power - drone metal song

>>46734134
there's nothing money grabbing about my idea

>>46734136
won't get fooled again had similar subject matter though

>>46734127
>both Radiohead and the Beatles went into the studio with the intention on creating a classic
no one else ever did

>>46734173
The Who suck though

>>46734127
>generate media

What the hell are you talking about.

>>46731489
this might be a good idea to make money for the guy that runs it.

but really... you will just end up with people who can play scales too fast.. and an automated sexy singer.

I'm thinking Everessence.

In art... greatness and commerce are two different paths that just occasionally cross.
