Metro News: Summit Wrap-up, Red Bull Sound Select List, & A New ECP Pitch Deck

Our regular Metro News updates highlight big wins, cool ideas, and notable events from around the Network so you can stay up to date on what your counterparts around the U.S., Canada, and Mexico are doing.

Next week is a short week here in the U.S. with the Thanksgiving holiday, so we know a lot of you are rushing to get your work done.

While you're packing your suitcase or searching for Turkey fryers on Amazon, take a look at what's going on around the Network!

5th Annual DoStuff Summit Is a Wrap!

We just wanted to say one more big, “thank you," to everyone for making it down to Austin last week for the Summit.

We had high hopes but it's safe to say you guys really blew away our expectations. Everyone brought a lot of energy and sincerity to the discussions, and somehow still found the strength to party in freezing temperatures afterwards.

Now that we've had a week to recover, we're feeling really inspired to be working on this big experiment with so many smart, talented, and good looking people. Here's to a big and exciting 2015 for DoStuff!

Red Bull Sound Select List

A while back, the Do214 team created a Red Bull Sound Select list to keep track of shows in Dallas that feature Sound Select artists. We thought this was a pretty awesome idea, especially as the Sound Select program grows, so we turned this list into a national user for the entire Network to take advantage of.

Now, every single metro has a Red Bull Sound Select list on their site featuring some fancy custom CSS. Just go to doXYZ.com/redbullsoundselect and take a look!


You can also view a list of artists by going to doXYZ.com/redbullsoundselct/artists.

There's no promotional plan with this user or anything. We just thought it would be a cool put together since Sound Select is doing such great work in many of your metros and our interests are often aligned. 

We'll leave it up to your discretion how to promote this user on your site, newsletter, and social -- if at all!

Other News

Here's a quick rundown of other big happenings around the Network.

Houndmouth and Do502
  • New ECP Pitch Deck: After our last update, a lot of you asked to get your hands on Do512's awesome new ECP pitch deck. With help from Liz at Do512, we put together this Google Docs template for you to fill in with your info and supercharge your ECP sales.
  • Do317 Turns 3: As one of the elder statesmen of the Network, we're proud to see Do317 reach the ripe-old age of 3 this weekend! Do317 launched on Nov. 23, 2011 as "Indy's Premier Events Calendar".
  • Do502 and Houndmouth Rocked Louisville: Do502 had a launch party for the books, featuring alt-country darlings (and Louisville natives) Houndmouth. Pressure is on for the next metro's launch!
  • Vancouver Is In: Speaking of next... We're happy to announce Vancouver as the 16th metro in the DoStuff Network! Do604/Do250 marks the second Canadian metro, the second in the Pacific NW, and the third outside the U.S.
