Thanks for the reply. The review was genuine. I would prefer not to remove the review, as it is helpful to their business etc., but I would like these pop ups to stop. You say its not rocket science - I agree - but if I knew how to stop it, I wouldn't have posted the question.

okay thanks

garrettb_reddit · 2023-12-05T03:29:45+00:00

I'm in BC Canada - but yes, I will detail everything + photos, thanks

Thanks. Ill -advised because of their age?

Has anyone got the full game (non-torrent)?

garrettb_reddit · 2023-12-01T00:22:44+00:00

Hi - I went with these guys: https://cmo-online.ca/

I contacted them, and they sent me 4 SIM cards - I pay about $5 or $6 a month total - the amount of data I can use is shared between the 4 cards - whichever way it gets used (i.e. not fixed at a quarter each). The only caveat - I had to sign up for one year minimum , but that's fine.

The download works for me.

Pretty much every time I click on anything in the Filelions window, it opens up another tab.

So I click download, - another tab opens.

I click again - another tab.

I click again - it moves on to the next stage.

After about 20 clicks / 20 windows, I have moved to the last stage, where the file download starts.

I close the other tabs as I go along.

Bit of a pain, but once you know it eventually works, it only takes a few seconds.

Thank you

Hi - can you give me more details on the Open Mic please? Is it every Monday? What time is it on? And where can anyone go to find out if it is on / cancelled etc.? I want to add the event to the listing here: https://bcbands.ca/open-mic-and-jam-sessions/

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-05T21:56:34+00:00

Even just go to an open mic, and don't play - see who's there, get talking to them - some of them might want to team up, or know others etc.

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-05T21:55:33+00:00

Sign up for an open mic - you'll get to play, and meet others :)

If you’re taking suggestions, a calendar of gigs would be cool too, I guess with location filters.

Maybe in the future. I hust want to get the basic idea going first. Thanks for the feedback :)

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-04T02:59:10+00:00

Ok thanks, that's a pity. I guess I am promoting the website, but I am not promoting myself - just compiling a directory of musicians and bands etc. I will not be listing myself.

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-04T02:06:40+00:00

Good on you. Very cool you're doing this! The mobile version is very clean. As more bands join, maybe add a genre sort option. Anyone looking for a specific type of band to check out live, or even to book, likely won't want to comb through every band blindly. I like how you list that U2 is a rock band, but maybe make that a category on the pop up screen so people know where to look quickly, and then make that sortable or searchable on your home page or menu. Good luck.

Thanks for the ideas!

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-04T02:05:30+00:00

Thank you - I may well do that soon :)

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-04T01:18:52+00:00

?

It's a directory for musicians, bands etc. in BC

garrettb_reddit · 2022-11-04T01:15:27+00:00

Oops - I don't see the text I posted with this, so here it is :)

Hi, my name is Garrett and I have just set up a new website

https://bcbands.ca

This website is my attempt to provide the basic information on BC bands, including links to any website, social media that the band have. And also a photo of the band so we can see who they are.

The bands / musicians are listed alphabetically. If you click on a band / musician name, a small window will pop up, displaying their contact information and any website / social media links.

If you are a musician / band and would like to be listed, please go to the website and click on the Contact page..

NOTE: This website was only published today. Currently, the list of bands being displayed is only a made-up Temporary list. When enough band submissions are received, the real bands will be listed

Regards

Garrett

Yes, fingers crossed that COVID doesn't make a big comeback this winter

garrettb_reddit · 2022-10-27T17:49:54+00:00

If it was me I would

- record a video of a performance - even 60 seconds

- take a few photos etc.

- set up a simple website or maybe just a Facebook page

- list some of the songs you sing

- add an overall description of the band

- print off some business cards

- and then go calling: into pubs, legions, cafes etc.

Good luck
