Members -MBro- Posted March 31, 2011 Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 We are a new band on the Montreal scene. The band is a cover band named retro spex.The site isnt fully operational yet. The singer Andrea put the site together on her own and is looking for more ideas. http://www.retrospex.hostica.com/# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members riversitter Posted March 31, 2011 Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 demo's dont work.. cant tell how you sound All the demo links are just placeholders (href="#") as is the "Lorem Ipsum" text in the bios. I think the site looks pretty good myself. I would only change 1 thing. Using javascript for primary navigation is a bad idea in my book. And in this case I can't see any reason for it. Well actually I might also change the navigation to use text instead of images. reverbnation has some good widgets if you want to add an easy music player for your demos.

Members -MBro- Posted March 31, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 IM not sure how she will put in the demos. A player like the one on myspace could be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pinchedharmonic Posted March 31, 2011 Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 The link to Facebook didn't work. Aside from that and a few other broken links, I really like the overall professional look of the site. Well done. Should bring you a lot of business.

Members Vito Corleone Posted March 31, 2011 Members Share Posted March 31, 2011 Site looks good: clean, easy to navigate. Pics look sharp, band looks pro and fun. If the audio and video demos match up to the rest of the site, you guys should do really well. Don't know if you've played any gigs yet, but live pictures with good crowd shots are always a good sell. People want to get an idea of what your gigs will be like, so if you can show people having fun at one of your shows, that's always a HUGE plus.

Well I'm a web developer by trade but I went the quick & easy route for my band and used reverbnation widgets. They have quite a variety. At least as nice as MySpace.

Members bnelly428 Posted April 1, 2011 Members Share Posted April 1, 2011 Well, they ARE from Montreal. Aren't most Quebecers fluent in both? Well that's my point. Either pick one, or do two sites with one in english one in French. In Quebec don't you have to have all signs posted in both English and French? Sign makers must be millionaires!
