Thread Name: Oxfam - Oxjam
Subject: RE: Oxfam - Oxjam
We did a night in Barnsley - nothing different to normal, it would have been a singers night anyway, but pushed the boat out publicity-wise and invited people who we knew, but weren't regulars to do slots (including 'friends' from myspace) All in all a sucess both for us - the biggest crowd we've had on a singers night, and for oxfam - we raised £120.

Probably didn't get many non-music types in, though, but every bit of publicity helps.

A good result for not-very-much work. I would encourage you to link up with anyone else doing an oxjam event in your area- even if it's heavy metal- you can ride off each others' publicity and it's a good opportunity to do some networking.

Hope that helps,

Sarah :)
