Endorsements

I've been playing drums for about nine years now, but I've never been with a band long enough to get down a recording. I've been looking to apply for a Phattie endorsement, but with no real recording experience and only a couple bands worth mentioning, most of my application would look pathetic. My current band is going strong, but we're not signed and we don't have management.

How the hell would I go about getting endorsed?? Confused

You really need to get some recordings under your belt and be in band's worth mentioning. The idea behind an endorsement is to advertise the company's product so you have to play high profile shows. Playing at your local dive bar won't cut it.

^ exactly. You arent going to be much use to your endorsees if you have no reputation to help you sell their stuff

up and coming makers have mostly unknown endorsers. that's really the way to go if you're dying to get with a custom kit company just for anyone else that's interested.

i already figured it out a few months ago.

That's true. I build Medicine Man Custom Drums. I've endorsed a few people.

Yes, I'm Dana's partner in case anyone was wondering.
