What TV can do.
« on: April 16, 2009, 11:17:41 PM »
I had a really strange evening last night.

Exactly a year ago I was head of jury of a quite big Dutch band contest. A band called Daily Bread won. Since then I saw the band perform regularly and they signed with the most well known Dutch indie label were all the good Dutch bands are at. I also had a colleague do an interview with the bass player for De Bassist.

Well, yesterday they were live at a TV programm called De Wereld Draait Door. That's maybe the best watched tv show in Holland. I knew they were on, so I tuned to that programm. To my surprise there was footage of me handing them over this award after me announcing: And the winner of........ is: DAILY BREAD.'

After those five seconds my quiet evening was over. I got like 10 text messages, 20 emails, messages on FaceBook and MySpace, people called me. I was busy answering mails, texts and calls the whole evening after five seconds on national TV. Really strange!

So it won't be that big of a jump to get your band on De Wereld Draait Door now.

I like their name- Daily Bread. Sounds like they'd be good Christian folks. ;)

I work in TV as arts and entertainment correspondent for Channel 2 News in Israel. I know exactly what you're talking about. TV has a much larger effect than print media or the Web or radio.
