maybe make a seperate area that we can keep info
Like make a section on Info for Victoria

IE venues in town (with contact info)
Promoters
Local Bands
etc

Area to keep up to date on shows?
i would keep it all up to date if i had to

I wouldn't mind getting a review and discussion section up. Brian could easily mod that, dude's already started posting random rad bands.

The idea of a seperate section just for show and venue info appeals to me, as well.

Hi, my name's Karla and I run SEVENTYTIMES7 (www.seventytimes7.weebly.com) and I list up-coming local shows as well as varies other things for the local music scene here in Victoria.
I would love to get SEVENTYTIMES7 more involved in the hardcore scene though, so if you guys were thinking of having a place to list venues, up-coming local shows, bands, etc, I'd definitely be down for putting all that stuff up on the site.

We would most likely gladly want to work together with you! Anything to get more promotion out for shows!

Absolutely second this. Also, I would like to apologize for not getting info about Black Cloud to you like I promised, but in my defense I'm a lazy fuck who smokes weed.

True story.

Boards: General and Music (Reviews, bands, mediafire links, etc - only viewable to those who are logged in)

then just post upcoming shows in the General board so people actually look at them? or new threads by the promoters, then a Sticky thread in General that lists upcoming shows in a list without discussions.

also maybe a Sticky thread with a FAQ for bands interested in Victoria, covering all the bases about getting here, legality, promoters, places to crash, local food, venues, etc?

I'd say you hit the nail on the head. Would you be down to do this?

I'll add the other board when I'm at work and I'll make the Upcoming Shows sticky thread, but the general FAQ will take me a little while longer. but sure.

I already have a really comprehensive FAQ that I've been sending to bands in the past, I'll find it and post it, then if you guys have additions you can just reply in the topic

whoa i'm a mod... good thing this board only consists of a few people from victoria who all know eachother anyway because if you expect me to actually do anything with my newfound moderating powers you will be sorely let down.
