At the FallstownFUSE we believe in lifting up our local performers and performance venues, because music, comedy, and live art bring joy to the masses. Similarly, we like to let people know about the venues that host live performances. If you’re a Texoma performer or venue, here are a few things you can do to make sure we’re lifting you up and shouting out your events.
Maintain a social media presence. Don’t want to? That’s cool, but it’s hard to tag you or share anything about you if you’re not online. If you feel like it’s out of your wheelhouse, try enlisting someone to do it for you.
Create Facebook “events” for your live entertainment and other events. Every time we see one, we mark ourselves as “Interested.” Later, when we’re putting together our weekly live entertainment lineup post (Tuesday evenings), we go back and check our event listings. It helps us make sure your event doesn’t get missed.
Post your events for the coming weekend by Tuesday at noon, so we have time to include your event in our lineup post.
When posting your events, make sure you include all the necessary information—performer name, venue name, day and time. That goes for everything, including comedians, karaoke hosts, and musicians. Our goal is not only to promote a venue, but also the performer. Plus, having the performer tagged in the same post as your venue increases the number of eyeballs that will see it.
Email us at fallstownfuse@gmail.com or tag us on Facebook and let us know about your upcoming event.
There are also a few things you shouldn’t do.
Don’t shotgun a bunch of events onto the calendar only to cancel them at random. We’re providing a service to people who want to patronize your events and we don’t want to disappoint them. We’ll eventually catch on and stop featuring your events.
Don’t list a bunch of generic events without any detail. Just because your event says “Open Mic” or “Karaoke” doesn’t mean we’ll include it. Everybody wants to know who the hosts/performers are.
Give us the information we need to make sure everyone knows about your upcoming events, so we can remind everyone, SOMETHING IS HAPPENING IN WICHITA FALLS!
