There’s a guy in Wellington making a photocopied weekly gig guide which will do more for the local music scene than this attempt at making a profitable social media. I guarantee it.

Its actually a small volunteer crew not one guy, and they are great! We have shared their posts on our socials, they do the guide, a weekly access radio show, free classifieds, all self funded... Which is exactly what Propel exists to support.
On the profitable social media bit. I have been a worker in the scene for 8 years, running events, promoting other people, pushing the scene. And i'll keep doing it here because I love it, not because theres money in it.
but if you are not volunteering then your ability to do it still depends on there being money in it.
Eh… seems to me that in a lot of scenes, “volunteer”-vs-“paid” is something of a spectrum…
That is brilliant!
I love the older style layout, it is much more readable that 99% of websites available today. Also that Classified section is wonderful.
Reminds me of the Tokyo Gig Guide, which I always hit up when I’m in town.

Similarly invaluable resource for San Francisco - The List:
Gloriously web 1.0, extremely functional and easy to scan through.reminds me of https://nyc-noise.com/
that's beautiful, I really wish there was more media like this
There is so much dense information in a single pamphlet. Beautiful.
