Kelly Moore To Sing National Anthem

For Vermont Lake Monsters

Music For Mankind® and Vermont Lake Monsters Raise Funds For The Hungry

Kelly Moore will sing The Star Spangled Banner when the Vermont Lake Monsters take on the Connecticut Tigers at Centennial Field in Burlington, Vermont on Friday June 24, 2011 at 7:05 PM.

The Vermont Lake Monsters, the Single-A minor league baseball team of Major League Baseball’s the Oakland Athletics, and Music For Mankind® founder Kelly Moore, of Manchester Center, Vermont, are teaming up to raise funds for the United Nations World Food Program and the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf, a Burlington, Vermont based Feeding America food shelf.

“We are very grateful to Kelly Moore and Music For Mankind for their efforts with the Vermont Lake Monsters to help raise funds for the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf,” said Rob Meehan, Director of CEFS. “This event helps raise awareness and support for hunger relief as we continue to see a growing number of visitors in need of food.”

“Efforts like Music for Mankind are in key in supporting WFP USA’s mission to promote policies, strategies and operations that directly benefit poor and hungry people around the world,” said WFP USA’s Ann Andrews Morris. “Thanks to Kelly, more people will be getting the life saving sustenance they so desperately need.”

“It’s an incredible honor for me to be able to help people who struggle every day just to survive by honoring our country with this great song,” stated Kelly Moore.

“Food is such a basic necessity,” he added. “There are enough resources on this planet to feed over ten billion people, yet every night over a billion go to bed hungry. This is how I can help a little with my talents, to perform my music and give what I can. It doesn’t take much to help.”

“We are so excited that Kelly and Music For Mankind is not only participating in our 31 for 31 program, but that they are so enthusiastic about the success of the program,” Emily McDonald, Vermont Lake Monsters Director of Community Relations and Promotions said. “Kelly has really taken his involvement with this program to the next level.”

“Working with Music For Mankind is very special to us,” she continued. “Teaming up with non-profits is a huge part of who we are and to be able to make a difference state-wide is important to us. Kelly has dedicated himself to such a meaningful cause. It's one that continuously needs attention and anything the Lake Monsters can do to help his effort is very rewarding.”

To purchase tickets to the Vermont Lake Monsters baseball game when Kelly performs the national anthem visit www.vermontlakemonsters.com or call 802/655-4200.

Centennial Field is located at 287 Colchester Avenue, Burlington, Vermont. Game time is 7:05 PM.

6/13/11 - HUGE PROMOTIONAL NEWS!!!

As many of you know, we here at Red Dragon Booking & Ent, already offer free PR exposure, for those who do not know what a PR Agent does, this member typically handles exposure in the form of tour press, in the way of show write ups, show mentions, feature articles, show reviews, album reviews and small ads, in weekly local papers, gazette’s and college papers in the area for a band on tour to create the optimum exposure for the band the venue and the scene in general. Typical PR agents can be quite expensive so we provide alternatives, through certain booking sites to PR agents that are a little more likely to fit your budget. Also, if you cannot afford even the cheapest PR agent, don’t worry, we provide FREE PR on all our tours. All we ask is that 6 weeks before you leave for tour you provide us with a press release for presentation to all our media outlets. This way you gain exposure through weekly local papers, gazette’s and college papers in the area. The venues will remember you for your extra attention to detail, in helping to promote your shows and their venue, and will be more likely to ask you back, benefiting the scene in general.

On top of that we are working with a new MySpace and Facebook Promotions Company to create a major internet advertisement campaign for our bands and the tours and the shows we will be booking this year. We will be reaching up to 15,000 people, possibly more across the country and around the world every month. We will create an Advertisement Post of the entire tour with links to our bands sites and music with the encouragement to listen, add our bands and buy their music. We will blast this posting out on Comment Pages, Bulletins, Messages, Walls, and Emails.  We can also target Age Ranges, Genres, and whether the individual being contacted is a Band, Fan, or Industry Professional, such as Management or Record Label. We did a trial for our artists in March and their pages and it’s turned out to be VERY Effective.

This should work really, really well for our bands this year! We are excited!

5/27/11

We are happy to announce that Red Dragon Booking won a victorious legal battle against BLX Graphics Inc, of Sarasota Springs Florida. The company was previously hired in July 2007 to execute the duties of Webmaster, and maintain the Red Dragon Booking & Entertainment website, which they did none of, and when the terms of the original agreement were violated they asked for further funds or our crucial website files would be held hostage until payment was made. We refused. After a long and costly legal battle, we have finally won and have been granted a court order and regained access to our website and the files that were hijacked and held hostage by BLX Graphics Inc,.

We owe many thanks to the Red Dragon Legal Team and their relentless hard work, resulting in the success of our case! It pays to have the best legal team in the business!


Thank you!!!

Red Dragon Booking / Entertainment has just signed a deal to put Heavy Metal band SLAM ONE DOWN hailing from NYC these guys will be playing shows all over NY, CT, PA, and MD!  These guys are very popular along the eastern seaboard and we are incredibly excited to have them within the RDB Family!!

 Keep your eyes open for tour dates in a city near you!  This band that should not be missed!

Promoters, Nightclub Owners, Bar Owners, Bartenders, Old fans and New Fans love when Slam

One Down performs at their venue. This New York City based Heavy Metal Band is known for its incredible abilities to entertain the crowd, get people to sing, dance and of course drink at the bar. Their party begins the moment they walk through the door, as they are known to be buying drinks for all new fans, sharing beer funnels and promoting their good time image with all their unique merchandise that they hand out including: Condoms, Beer Funnels, Buttons, Lighters & various good time knick knacks. An amazing chemistry happens when they hit the stage. They play some of the most moving Heavy Metal music while at the same time getting people to sing, dance and participate. They play an array of original music and will occasionally throw in a great cover song to get the crowd to participate in the event.

It is important to not be fooled by their good time appearance. These well-educated entertainers mean business and have been classified as the hardest working underground metal band in the NYC area. If Slam One Down has a show or event coming up, it is guaranteed that they will be self-promoting the event weeks in advanced with flyers, online promotion and aggressive ticket selling. Such hard work has been shown to pay off with the list of National Heavy Metal acts that they have performed with.

Slam One Down has performed with: Drowning Pool, Bleeding Through, Merauder, All Out

War, Unearth, Full Blown Chaos, Mushroomhead, Sworn Enemy, Powerman 5000, Darkest Hour, Veil of Maya, Periphery, Revocation, Stick to Your Guns, Oceano & GodForbid. They have performed on the main stage at well-known venues and even small dive bars. They have a 7-song demo available, and are currently recording a full-length album. Slam One Down has found that their biggest tracks are "Too Far Gone" "Beer Run” and "To Live Forever." Beer Run is a very interesting and funny track, but you will see how it gets a crowd chanting the song and has become their most recognized track. Slam One Down is creating buzz and a fan base the old fashioned way by hitting the pavement and growing one show at a time.

Signed Mandragora Scream

10/4/10

Red Dragon Booking / Entertainment has just signed a deal to put Dark / Gothic / Rock band Mandragora Scream hailing from Italy out on their first US West Coast Tour this Summer 2011!  These guys are HUGE in Europe and are due to go on tour with “Cradle of Filth” in Russia in the Spring of 2011 and we are incredibly excited to be booking their West Coast tour this Summer!! 

 

The MANDRAGORA SCREAM project - dark-gothic-rock band - takes shape in 1997 from an idea of the band’s lead singer MORGAN LACROIX. In 1999 Morgan cuts a demo CD with four tracks, titled "PromoTrack99" at the NEW SIN studios in Italy.

In 2000, Morgan is introduced to singer, guitarist and composer Terry Horn. The result of this magical artistic union is the debut album "FAIRY TALES FROM HELL'S CAVES", distributed in 2001 by German independent label NUCLEAR BLAST/CAPIRANHA RECORDS.

Fairy Tales is definitely a concept album: a trip throughout the Dantean Hell, tormented by passion, anguish and insanity, where the character of Virgil is surprisingly replaced by an unusual bewitching vampire fairy.

In 2002 MANDRAGORA SCREAM release their second album "A Whisper of Dew", distributed by NUCLEAR BLAST. Once again a concept album, centred on the enthralling vampire story purposely written for the band by Julio Angel Olivares Merino, horror-gothic literature writer and “ English Philosophy ” Teacher at the Spanish “UNIVERSIDAD DE JAEN”. Drawing inspiration from this tale, Morgan has composed the entire album lyrics.

The two projects end up selling over 24.000 records on the whole and are received with stunning appraisal words from the critics, winning the consent of the greatest rock magazines worldwide. 


Mandragora Screma are also featured on various international compilations:

MIDDLE FINGER MOB 

FEAT; MEMBERS OF TOTAL CHAOS, BULLETBOYS & HOLLYWOOD 77

Some say that the spirit of rock and roll has died, that its essence no longer flows through the veins of youth and old alike. Some credit the grunge scene of the early 1990's and some credit the oversaturation of copycat bands of the late 1980's while some believe its just another marketing tool just like everything else. Middle Finger Mob believes none of those, and is here to prove it. Formed in early 2009, 5 friends came together with an undying love for this sound we call rock and roll. From its songs of untamed lifestyles and heartbreaks to its catchy riffs and stylish solos, rock and roll has captured the hearts of the individuals of Middle Finger Mob without a doubt. Shawn Smash, Freekshow, Danny "Boy" Virus, D.J Cruise and Lenka Danger all have one thing in common, and thats a love and passion for music. 

Building off of personal experiences, their songs and sounds are a reflection of their lives around them, from the harrowing tales of junkie life in Hollywood in songs like "Doing Time" dealing with issues of seeing friends turn into lost souls almost overnight and getting consumend by the excess of big city life!!! Or "Save a Place in Heaven" written for good friend of the band "Traci Michaels" who sadly passed away last June in a hotel room while on tour in Dallas, TX. 

Middle Finger Mob takes it all in with one breath...... 

Their live shows pack more punch than a one legged man in an ass kickin contest!!! Few guitarists can burn their sound into your brain like Shawn Smash can, from his memorable hooks and fast melodic solo's, the song writing and lead guitar hits you in the chest with more force than most natural disasters!!! Freekshow turns his voice into an instrument and pours out his heart with melody and passion that touch the very depths of your soul, not to mention his high energy performance live!!! D.J Cruise keeps the bass driving and locks in perfectly along side Danny "Boy" Virus whose rock solid powerhouse drumming is often imitated but never duplicated!!! And last but not least Lenka Danger delivering her smooth charismatic vocals and sexy stage presense making Middle Finger Mob's live shows pack more action than a Tijuana donkey show or a 1956 Elvis concert!!! : ) A definate force to be reckoned with!!! Middle Finger Mob has many things to say and accomplish in the world of music, and they are playing by nobody's rules but their own!!!

THE NEW RELEASE "SONGS OF LIFE,SEX AND DEATH" TO BE RELEASE MAY 21ST ,2009 WITH SELECT DATES TO SUPPORT, STARTING WITH NIKSTOCK IN NEW YORK.

Red Dragon Booking & Entertainment is celebrating our FIFTH year in business in 2007!!

We want to thank all the bands, fans, promoters, venues, labels, publicists, magazines, and everyone who have made the last five years an amazingly great time for everyone!

Over the past Five Years we have had the privilege to work with over, 115 Bands  and have booked over 78 Tours resulting in over 2322 shows, since 2002!!!!

We are very proud of this endeavor that started as a humble independent promoter helping bands that needed a friend and helping hand in the music industry, to the solid anchored, well respected touring agency it is today!

- What can Red Dragon Booking / Entertainment do for my band?

The End of Silence started their National tour June 14th and wanted to end September 30th, 2006. They had Meredith Sloan of Melon Media doing PR for this tour. Although Red Dragon Booking / Entertainment and Melon Media had never worked together previously, but much like the other publicists we have worked with in the past, we hit it off right away! The End of Silence started their tour with no previous experience in any of the markets across the country, and were fine with the initial $40 to $100 guarantee's we set out to secure for them, and understood that if we were unable to acquire those guarantee's for them from the venues, that unfortunately that is how it is across the country now a days, venues don't hand out money, as listed in our Term of Service Agreement.

Across the first leg of the tour, Meredith and Red Dragon Booking / Entertainment worked so well together, The End of Silence started drawing 20 to 30 to 50 people at venues, in cities where they had never set foot before. Then by the time they got to the east coast, they were drawing an average of 50 people per show and easily acquiring their $80 to $100 guarantee's and above per night. By mid August things were going so well, they decided to stay out on the road until October 30th, and once they came back around and hit all of the same clubs on their way home, they were receiving guarantee's of $200 to $500+ per night and drawing almost 300 people at venues they had only played once a few weeks or in some instances months before, where they had only drawn 20 to 30 people.

Good progressive booking paired with good progressive PR and good promotion is the best thing for a band on tour, however their expectation level has to be in the right place and this example proves that, because if The End of Silence, their label or anyone else involved had expected to make $200 to $500 per show right off the bat, then it wouldn't have worked out this well for everyone involved, because that is an unrealistic expectation for any band setting out on their first tour. Keeping the expectation level to what it should be $0 to $40 to $100 per show, in areas your band has never played before, will be more beneficial in the progress of the long run then going out with the wrong expectations and becoming frustrated, or disappointed and not furthering the overall success and career goals. So as a result of the Hard Work of the band The End of Silence, the financial support, dedication and hard work of their label Killer Puppy Records, successful booking paired with, successful PR and successful promotion, staying out from June 14th until October 30th established the band across the country and made for much larger connections than they ever dreamed of and got the attention of Jacoby, lead singer of multi-platinum hard rock band "Poppa Roach" and they are currently in negotiations to join them as main support on the next Poppa Roach national tour, and are currently working on setting dates for Jacoby to produce the next "The End of Silence" record.

Need we say more?

The Sex Robots of St Louis, MO have just signed a tour deal with Red Dragon Booking to tour with Oslo Norway band Mindy Misty on their west coast tour from San Diego to Seattle from February 26th to April 3rd, 2006

Sex Robots is a rock and roll response to all the trash punks and bubblegum of the mid 80s, from the Replacements to Blue Angel.  The songs are fast and rockin' and detail wasted adventures and animal attacks.  The band started as a side project to fill time while both drummer Maysam Attaran and guitarist Mario Viele's blistering pogo-punk band the Pubes went on a brief hiatus in 2002, but earned enough of a following in the Midwest to warrant Sex Robots being a full time band as well.

Sex Robots have been voted Best New Band in the Riverfront Times 2004 Music Awards and Best Punk Band in the 2005 Awards by the adoring public of St. Louis.  The band has a split 7" record available and a full length CD, and has opened for bands such as the Vibrators, 7 Shot Screamers, Bunnygrunt and has played out regularly in the Midwest for the past few years.

Salt Lake City, Utah Punk band FAIL TO FOLLOW has just signed a tour deal to tour the west coast in April, taking them from Utah to the West Coast, to Seattle and back home! Tour dates are: April 22nd to April 30th, 2006.

Fail to Follow separates itself from the rest of the scene with its faster tempos and yelling vocals that one cannot help but pump their fists to. Bringing back the hardcore punk rock style that seems to have almost completely vanished due to the popularity of the more radio friendly pop punk sound. With varying influences ranging from punk to metal to hardcore, Fail to Follow has set out to wake up and open the minds of the masses through thought provoking lyrics and intense live shows

Fail to Follow has toured relentlessly throughout Utah and its surrounding states for 2 years. They have been featured on The Vans Warped ’04 and ‘05 on the Ernie Ball Stage, as well as the Kevin Says Stage. They have shared the stage with a number of national acts including Suicide Machines, Ignite, Authority Zero, Zebrahead, Thought Riot, The AKA's, Scatter the Ashes, Emery, Copeland, Throwrag, Guttermouth, Aiden, The Hurt Process, Love = Death and many more.

Mindy Misty an indie / rock four piece from the artic sphere of Oslo Norway are heading out on their first US Western Regional Tour. With musical background from Black Metal/C-64 Electronica / Noise and Folk Mindy Misty manages to create a different and hard indie sound. The melodies are often catchy and harmonic though there's a schizophrenic monster lurking in the under toad exploding in frenzies every now and then. The dark forests of Norway have helped shape the melancholy and mystique of these heart sounds and throughout their musical expression there's a basis of childish curiosity and exploration, combined with blunt honesty.

The Red Dragon Booking Tent at the San Francisco Warped Tour event was a success!  The Tent was shared by our friends, and great local SF Punk band The LUCKY STIFFS. They gave out mohawks to anyone against George W. Bush, or anyone who wanted a mohawk in exchange for a water. Over 65 new Mohawks left the Warped Tour that day that didnt arrive, thanks to the Stiffs and their message! It was a blast!!

Special thanks to Greg, drummer of The Swingin Utters for stopping by and hangin at the tent with everyone! Go check out their recent "Live In a Dive" record out now on Fat Wreck Chords.
