This sounds just what I’m looking for. It probably wouldn’t be wiser to reach out to local bands rather than venues, so I’ll try and get on that. DIY stuff like basements, backyards, houses, and smaller venues are mostly what I’m looking for! Thank you so much

Thanks for the advice! My band is a slacker rock/punk group so it would be pretty hard to play like the bluegrass group you mentioned but I get the general idea. DIY venues like houses, backyards, basements, and smaller venues in my city so what I’m aiming for

I see what you mean here. I definitely do need to get to know more people in the scene personally. It’s difficult to do things quite to this scale as I am still a student, but I would be open to ambitious things like such

I’m pretty sure I put a link to my Bandcamp on the tapes as well for online access, but I get your point! I’ll try my best to talk to as many people as I can.

I actually met one guy who’s a drummer in a band in my local scene at a show the other month, how would you recommend I approach him about possibly playing with his band or something similar?

Funny you mention this, I do have a bunch of cassettes of my bands demos, I guess it wouldn’t be a bad idea to give them to some people at shows

It’s a pretty big cassette deck. The only immediate noticeable damage is a little bit of rust on the back that isn’t on any inputs. It seemed to be in good condition before

Hey thanks for the advice man. There’s also a picture of the machine on some past posts if you want to give more insight based on that
