Sending to Concert tour locations?

Post by MunsterManiac »

Has anyone here had any successes or thoughts on sending a fan mail letter to a certain concert tour stop at the time the performer is supposed to be there?

yes those are REALLY fun but they are a HUGE gamble! {up}
(And some ppl dont sign VV. be beware!)
Britney Spears==>> 6 #1 albums. 2 diamond albums. 8 platinum albums. 400+ awards. 200M+ records sold. Britney has sold over 45 million records this decade despite only releasing three albums. Globally, Britney has more #1 singles than any other female artist except Madonna and Rihanna. "Oops!...I Did It Again" by Britney is the 5th best selling album of the 2000s decade worldwide. Britney is the only female artist to chart her first seven albums in the top two of the Billboard 200. Britney has achieved at least one #1 album in 3 different decades (90's, 00's, 10's). Britney is the first solo female artist from the 90's to reach 1 billion Spotify streams. Despite NOT even being a single, 'Tom's Diner', ft. Britney , has become Giorgio Moroders best-selling digital track. 2015 Billboard Awards ratings reached a 14-year high, with numbers peaking during Britney's performance. She IS the princess of Pop. Bow Down! #StayMadHaters

I do it all the time.only send to people who are known to sign via venue.the success rates are pretty bad though.i only get back about 3 or 4 tops out of every 20 I send.i don't do it anymore because it is not worth it as you don't get many back

yes it's true...I've got never gotten an concert success outside Germany ! And I wrote so much letters.(at Last A.Cooper, R. Blackmore,King Diamond, GHOST. Sabaton----NOTHING) And also in Germany is the rate of loss higher as my successes. It's a gamble and you must know is it worth it? I will further try it again at the future but not more so often. The costs are to expensive. :neutral:

If you send to a concert venue that passes on fan mail and a good VV signer, there's always a chance to get something back! :)

yap...after all my losses I write now ever at first to the location whether they passed my letter. But that are only 50%....the other 50% is hope.. :neutral: And here also give it a difference to German locations. In the states the managers from the locations much friendlier and more helpful as in germany. {up}

I've actually sent to Enrique Iglesias from few venues they replied me they will pass it to the singer but I haven't gotten any answer yet. Hope it'll come soon!
