Members themusicdude Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 in high school my bandmates and i were "endorsed" by a local company called revolution warez. we started off buying a lot of their stuff and wearing it at gigs, they liked our music, we played out a lot so they started letting us buy them at like 60 or 70% off. they eventually called it quits, but it was pretty cool when you're 17 years old.

Members bassplayer7770 Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 There are local bands around here who are endorsed by beer companies. One of my previous bands had a banner given to us by Budweiser (we knew a Bud rep).
Members SA Rios Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 I was given free cables and strings be D'Addario. I worked at a music store and our local rep was actually the granddaughter, her last name was D'Addario. She gave me this sign that I would set on top of my amp when I played live.
Members lug Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 But Eureka is currently trying to put together a package to lure me away. I'll let my business manager work it out.

I'm sure they would hate for something "unfortunate" to come out of one of their speaker cabs...
Members bholder Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 I'm "certifiable", is that close?

Their big fear is the product liability lawsuits. It's like when Cessna gets sued cause somebody crashed. In this country, it doesn't really have to be the manufacturer's fault for him to pay thru the nose. You know the lawyers always go after the deep pockets. I use this to my advantage.

"Manufacturer does not accept responsibility for any sterilization resulting from the playing of lug songs through its equipment."

I have 6 kids. I consider performing a sterilization to be a favor.

Members Funkee1 Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 I am not "Technically" an endorser of either, but I have a great relationship with Genz Benz, and my photo is on the Spector website!

Ferrari makes great cars, BUT......Chevy moves a lot more product and makes a lot more money than Ferrari and can pay a lot more for advertising. Remember that.
Members My bass in your face Posted September 20, 2005 Members Posted September 20, 2005 I comfuzzled... Please help the stupid Dutchy out here. Who's the endorser and the endorsee again? Let's say that I have an endorsement with a bass company, then I'm endorsing the bass company, right? Am I correct?
