We don't have a huge PR machine or massive media support, we don't have billboards covered in our posters or huge magazines covering us, but you all know that costs money ultimately from the tickets..
But what we do have is you people that have been, that have played, that have experienced Uprising first hand. You're our PR machine so whilst we're loading up our next run of bands please give our first announcements some love, share the poster , follow the bands, stick them on your playlists, commit to a ticket now if you can or in spirit if you can't.
