Hi sorry I've been distant, we've had a lot of projects on.
The new United Moshers site is up at www.unitedmoshers.com, we now have an improved gig/events guide called "what's on" Feel free to add any gigs or events that are being held by Big Note. Each venue can have a profile first to link to events, if they are not already listed in the venues list. Just make an account (it's free) and click on submit new event on the what's on page.
Any bands that use your services, can also add their gigs to the "what's on" gig guide. The old site got searched regularly for gigs and events, and we're going on a big marketing drive with the new site. So it will be an even greater place to promote services for bands, gigs etc. Plus we have new galleries, and much more.
