Get On Stage

Gidday!

Here’s the instructions for participating in this year’s fRETfEST.

If you want to apply to fRETfEST, simply come along to one of the shows and, if you like what you see, hand over a demo and we’ll have a listen to it, first.

If your demo rocks, we’ll get back in touch with you and have a chat about how to arrange to get up on a fRETfEST stage!

We don’t accept any myspace messages or youtube links.

You have to come in to the show in person (first) and have a look at what we're doing. 

Introduce yourself to the MC, hand over your demo, and we'll have a listen to it and get back in touch with you if we think your demo rocks.

fRETfEST is not a jam-nite. You can’t just get up and play at fRETfEST gigs. 

Your demo must contain your own original acoustic songs without any overdubs or backing muso’s or effects.  It must be just you, alone, on your own, acoustic guitar and vocal.  All songs muct have lyrics and all songs must be G-rated and recorded “live” in one take.

If you need help making demo just speak to the guys at ADAPT STUDIOS Brisbane, Visit them at http://www.adaptstudios.com.au/ or speak to John at AUDIO ADVANTAGE in Brisbane.... and tell em we sent you!  You can also record it at home coz the quality of the recording is not nearly as important as the quality of your songs.  HINT HINT

Remember, the first step is to come in to a gig and say gidday; then hand over a demo.

Please do not send us any myspace links or youtubes or friend requests, etc.  

Just come into the gig. 

For gig locations and times, see the Gig Guide! 

Thanks & good luck!
