Some Local Ottawa Promo Possibility Addresses

---

This is a list of media and other e-mail addresses to consider using that may be of help in promoting artist news such as CD releases, special and other performances.

For promotion of regular performances, the addresses followed by the word, "GIGS" are probably the more effective ones to use

NOTE: This is as complete a list as I have at the moment. If you have other addresses to add to the list or if any of these are used and don't work, please let me know.

To use these Yahoo list services, you first have to use the Subscribe address. Just send an empty e-mail to the address with no subject or content.

You'll get an e-mail confirmation request. Do what it says and you'll be added as a subscriber. Then, you can use the posting address. Be forwarned that you may sometimes get a flood of e-mails at least from the MapleBlue list service.

If you want to avoid this, you can use any blocking or filtering processes available, for example, the Mail Rules of Outlook Express to eliminate or minimize the volume of postings you have no interest in.
