This is the first of many tips for succeeding as a local band.

The Raffle:  When I was in local band Heres To Honor http://open.spotify.com/album/7uvu7yB4LanERhyBWUa93D in west palm beach, we would always make good money with a raffle. Yager  was the drink of choice for bandmates and fans alike.  Heres how it works: Buy a large bottle of your favorite liquor. Buy a cheap role of raffle tickets.(Usually found at most departement stores or dollar stores). Sell chances to win for $1 or$2. (This doesnt work if no ones there) 😛  Alot of people would buy at least 1-2 tickets. If you paid $20.00 for the bottle and sold 40 tickets for $2.00 each you made $80.00 for a profit of $60.00.  Add  to this your merch sales and the pay for the gig it all adds up to more band funds.

Good luck and keep rockin!!!
