OTEP: Fans Invited To Determine Stops On Band's Tour

October 25, 2006

Putting the power back into the hands of devout fans, Eventful.com announces the first-ever user-generated tour — letting the fans determine where OTEP (Capitol Records) will perform by using the Eventful Demand feature! Launching Tuesday (Oct. 24),fans from 18 cities will compete against each other for the opportunity to have OTEP perform in their hometown and the most rockin' bragging rights around.

Created and developed by Eventful.com, hopeful tour cities can compete, click by click, with the unique Eventful Demand feature available only at Eventful.com. Fans can cast their vote by visiting Eventful.com, or adding the OTEP demand sticker to their MySpace page, blog or website. Fans flock to Eventful.com to create a virtual sticker for their favorite performers which includes the "Demand it!" button by just copying and pasting the code into any modifiable website including their MySpace pages allowing true fans to spread the word about their favorite artists virally. So will it be Cleveland or Akron? St. Louis or Kansas City? Only the fans know for sure!

Between October 24 and October 30, 2006 the revolutionary concept involves fans from across the country duking it out to see where OTEP will play. 18 cities will compete, but only six cities will win a chance to see their favorite artist give a live performance! This unprecedented idea opens the door to packed shows of loyal fans who can honestly scream over blaring guitar riffs, "I demanded OTEP — and they came!"

The goal is to guarantee that true fanatics have a chance to see their favorite group and the band is guaranteed to sell out shows to dedicated fans. This concept is the future of how bands will plan their tours and connect with their fans.
