Music festivals used to put a full/double page advert in Melody Maker etc. You could send a cheque, and they'd send you a ticket. First come, first served. No middlemen, no problems. Simple.

Look up street teams in the journals.

5 weeks ago you asked the same thing, saying you had 6 weeks to go...

All I'd suggest is that Fab may not be the best place for you to do your research.

Good luck

Btw...I'd be more interested in pre - Web and pre - social media advertising budgets because it would have been massive.

Yet they still had to make the event profitable.

I'd be more interested in that. Personally.

Flyers at gigs used to be common.

There used to be a company called " out of hand " they used to employ people to give out flyers for up coming gigs in a pack, not sure if they are still going but it was quite a good way of marketing lots of events in one pack
