In answer to a PM from Robin--

Yes, draft up something about band strengths, yes.

Just send whatever you have, and be thinking about who we can ask for some snappy review comments. Do you have a list of events you have played, by venue? (I know, pain in the ass.) Maybe your e-mail trails would give a clue. The idea is, some presenters want to know what other presenter they can call for a reference, or which of their competition has hired you even if they do not call up, once they get serious, unless they know you. So your most-frequently-played places ought to be listed, as well as your "best" venues for size or prestige.

Is there a local reporter who can access any old reviews or press for you?
