QN5 MEGASHOW 2006 (7.28.06) :: QN5 MUSIC SPRING CLEANING TOUR 2006 ::

Glenwood Fucking Springs…


Jesus, who booked that shit, that was like the time that Souls of Mischief and Non Phixion played Apen.

Fucking Aspen!

I will try to make it but do you realize that not many people in Colorado are in the Glenwood area…

Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs is where you should have booked to maximize your profits.

Point blank: We go where they book us.

Your boys in Denver, Boulder, Fort Collins & Colorado springs didn’t wanna put their money where their mouths were. But thanks for the tip. Wink

Is the maid going to be the opening act?

Thats awesome, I didn’t know Boston was only a 6 hour drive. Thats the closest I’ve ever been to a show I wanted to go to! Road Trip from Canada! Better be able to get over your border though mutha fuckers

Damn son.. I can’t make the 27th…I got early class on the 28th…

yeah I was suprised to see that. i don’t know whats up with the boulder/denver promoters not bookin the show there. anyway. that TBA show that is the next night will hopefully be another CO show in a closer area. but if i have to go to glenwood, ill go to glenwood. a 3 hour drive is worth the effort to see QN5.

I would be down to carpool if u want.

The irony of the whole CO situation is that… we sell THE MOST records in Colorado out of any state in the country. It’s bizarre. Your promoters are pussy out there.

If you got a show at the Fox you would have made loot homie, the CU Campus is like a 5 min walk away.

I know it’s hella random, but the soundscans don’t lie! It’s followed closely by California and then NY.

boston hollaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa….

omg! i might actually be in LA for that show - yay!

=-O….as may I. I might hit the Salem and LA shows if I can sell enough shit on eBay.

The people who FLEW to the QN5 Megashow can tell you how worth it traveling out of your way to a QN5 show is

Word…it’s DEFINITELY worth it. Any of you lurkers reading, or newbies not too sure what’s going on because you’re doing Alegbra 1 homework so you don’t fail out of the 9th grade LISTEN UP! Support by hitting one of the shows up. There’s quite a few people from the West Coast ALONE that flew in for Megashow 2005…and I know of even MORE going this year…so get your asses to a show…even if you have work and are going to be a half hour-hour late…just GO!

If I can take a red-eye from Seattle to NYC I don’t see why people can’t ride in the car for a few hours. They’ll be the ones complaining later. This doesn’t happen often so do whatever it takes to attend.

hmmm. i may have to drive from st. louis, all the way across IL to the middle of IN. it should be worth it.

yea megashow was dope as hell one of the best shows i went to last year minus the waiting outside for it to start

kicking the tour off in P-h-i double L Y


my apartment is 6 miles away….i could walk…but i wont…


umm…and ive never seen a hip hop show at Nxnw…but thats cool…place appearantly is really nice..

disicples of logic?...not sure what to make of them…“semi-sorta ok/dope”..or “weak heavily influenced JMT -ites”...ill see em live and pass judgement

but..um….in other news….newphex…we should have a chit chat…

Touring…

Man…I don’t ever post here…but reading some of y’alls reactions to the qn5 tour routing infuriates me. So lemme let y’all in on some things.

When heads tour they dont just throw darts at a map and say “hey we’re gonna do a show there!!!!” Nah it doesn’t work like that. What we do is venue and promoter research and then we have to essentially beg someone to pay us to come rap in your town. Not a fun process. In fact moreoften it’s a reality check on how much the game doesn’t change we just get older.

So as a result I honestly CANNOT STAND when somebody is like “why didn’t you come to…..” or “you should come to….” If your favorite act hasn’t come to where you live at and you just sit and complain about it you’re part of the problem. Don’t just be like…come to my town…find out who is throwing shows in your damn town and bring some information. Get your friends to bug this local promoter about QN5 until they’re like “yo these guys must be on to something.” This is ideal because it puts the touring artist in a better position with more bargaining power.
Promoters need to know your favorite artist exists. Part of what they do when they are approached with a tour is canvas the local stores to find out how much the artist sold in the area or they ask their peer groups if they’ve heard of said artists….

Basically if QN5 wasn’t able to come to your town…you’re essentially not doing your jobs as fans and then being like “yo what the fuck?!” when they post a 16 date routing with several large geographical holes.

Look at a map and then look at those dates…nobody sets out to make a haphazard touring schedule like that. I wasn’t apart of the setup of this tour at all but from my experience I’m guessing that this routing is the best tour possible after MONTHS the correspondence of promoters trying to shortchange them with bullshit shows and again those of you who are talking bout “oh I can’t make it…” YOU ARE NOT DOING YOUR JOBS AS FANS.

Some of these promoters believe they are taking a substantial risk booking this show and by your not coming out to the show YOU ARE PROVING THEM RIGHT. You’re thinking “oh I’ll go to the next one.” Guess what THERE WON’T BE A NEXT ONE IF NO ONE COMES. Fuck you mean an hour is too far? What you know about riding a greyhound bus for 31 hours? NOTHING.

QN5 does not have a booking agent, they put this together themselves. They are a grassroots movement. If it is to continue to flourish you guys as fans need to get more on the ball. Buy the records in stores that matter. Play the music for and talk it up to your friends. Stop trying to make PackFM, Tonedeff, Cunninlynguists, Mecca, etc your personal private artists. Or put your money where YOUR mouth is and get your friends together and start your own show promotions (just make sure you do that shit right). Stop complaining and start fuckin helping. This is muhfucka’s livelihoods at stake.

FUCK!
