Hello, It's just over three months to the first Montreal Progressive Music Festival, and there is a bit of news to report. We are now taking reservations for program advertisements for the event. If you can't make it this year but still want to support us, this would be a great way to help make the event a success this year. This is also a unique chance to get more well known to 400 people mostly in the Montreal and surrounding areas, who may not be paying attention to other English language media. If you are a prog vendor or band trying to get more established in Quebec, this is a pretty obvious way to get started. Information about advertizing in the FMPM program is available on our web-site at http://www.fmpm.net; click on Program Advertizing. To reserve, contact [email protected] If you want to actually come to our event and sell stuff, table rental information is also available on the web-site at http://www.fmpm.net. Again, this is an excellent way to get into the Montreal market, and it will also be very helpful to us in our first year. To reserve, contact [email protected] The Montreal Progressive Music Festival (Festival des Musiques Progressives de Montreal) runs September 15th to 16th, and features international acts Hatfield and the North and Echolyn in additional to four of Montreal's progrsesive ensembles, Miriodor, Jerome Langlois' Molignak, Kaos Moon, and Karcius. A pre-show on the 14th will showcase Hamadryad and Talisma. Tickets are still available, so if you've been planning a weekend in Montreal now's a pretty good time. Regards, Sean |
