Help Out
The band thrives on your support and your every effort has brought us this far.
1) Send the following message to everyone in your address book:
Hi Everybody! I will be at (place) on (date) to hear my friends in the band Lit by Lightning. They put on a great show. You can check them out at litbylightning.com. Let me know if you can make it!
2) Click on these links to download and print posters for pcs and post cards for pcsfor upcoming shows. This is the hardest task for the band and the most appreciated. The files are designed so you can input the specifics. Try printing them on card stock recycled paper and posting them on public bulletin boards, at schools, or leaving on counters in community-event-friendly establishments near the show being promoted. Do you have a friend who owns a boutique or restaurant in the area? Ask to tape an 8.5 by 11 inside their window because these get taken down the least!
3) Pass out CDs of 1 or 2 GWT songs outside venues or at the next party you go to. Put a sticker on them or write in sharpie litbylightning.com and the date and place of the next show. Or e-mail one mp3 to your whole e-mail address book. We encourage the type of sharing that garners support and invites more people to events!
4) Request us on KFOG 104.5FM by calling 1-800-300-KFOG (5364) or e-mailing kfog@kfog.com. Try requesting the song “Rising Tear” on a Sunday morning “Acoustic Sunrise” show.
5) Wear your GWT T-Shirt everywhere and buy one as a gift for a friend who you brought to a show.
6) Write to your local newspaper editor (google the paper’s name and phone and ask for the music editor). Or write your local winery, club, or university student activities office.
7) Throw a house concert. This is an event in your living room or yard. You invite your friends to come for a potluck or whatever you want and hear LBL live!
8) Offer your home for one or more of LBL to sleep at when they tour through your area. Let the band know you have a space available by emailing.
9) Donate a LBL house concert to a charity auction. E-mail Grace about this.
10) Donate money toward the making of the next album and the financing of the tour. Most people don’t know that LBL never actually gets paid. Every paycheck the band earns goes into the band fund to finance the next tour, the next album, merchandise, rehearsal space, webhosting and you-name-it. This means LBL isdoing this for love and the power of music. You can send a check made out to the Lit by Lightning to 2630 Grant St Berkeley CA 94703. Your donation will not go unnoticed.
