		<description>Hey,

It says to submit through sonicbids and that the deadline is july 17th, but it says the submission is not open right now. I think our Organic Hip Hop band would go well with this Festival- check us out at CertifiedOrganicHipHop.com or Sonicbids.com/HardawayAndTheCommoners. Look forward to hearing from you soon

		<description>Couldn&#039;t have said it better myself!

Everyone, please note that the deadline for Sonicbids submission is &lt;b&gt;JULY 17TH&lt;/b&gt;, as we need time to go through all the submissions and give everyone a good listen.

Thanks to everyone who has submitted!</description>

		<description>Regarding the SonicBids comment about $15 being a scam... think about it THIS way... it&#039;s a lot cheaper than pressing demo CD&#039;s, printing 8x10 glossy photos, printing one-sheets, packaging, postage and everything else that goes into the old skool press kits, plus the time and effort it takes to get your foot in the proverbial door of the venue/festival. It&#039;s the sign of the times... either love it or don&#039;t. :) Peace!!</description>

		<description>Big Andy,
To follow up on the comment made above, specifically what are the other methods you use to select performers? If you are unknown, is sonicbids the only way you can get in? I have a sonicbids account, but what about those individuals who don&#039;t subscribe to sonicbids or don&#039;t want to?</description>

		<description>Hi Really-

I&#039;m sorry you feel that way. Each artist that submits through Sonicbids gets a thorough look from our team. We&#039;ve been proud to book some amazing talent using this process in past years. The &quot;limited&quot; spots are a minimum number of spots that we guarantee from this process, but our main goal is to program the best content possible and we use a variety of methods. For less-known talent, Sonicbids is the route that makes the most sense.

Another thing to consider is that each artist who submits through Sonicbids receives a 3-day pass to the festival. If you are not selected this year, this provides an opportunity for you to still be a part of the event, and to hopefully open up new opportunities.

Booking and promoting upcoming and independent artists has always been a priority of the festival. We hope you&#039;ll reconsider.

Thanks,
Big Andy</description>

		<description>To charge $15 dollars through Sonicbids is a scam when you only state you hold limited spots for Sonicbid users. Glad to see you are just like every other &quot;pay2play&quot; production company out there. If not all slots are for sonicbids, where do the others sign-up?!?!? Not here as we can all see.... If there were options it would not seem like such a scam... 

 A fee I understand, but $15 is overkill for only a local know festival.
