From a strategic standpoint, this could be a stroke of brilliance.  It’s creative, targeted, and perfectly obsessive.  At this point, aspiring band Noise of Rumors has shot a ‘vlogumentary’ on their quest to open for No Doubt, launched dedicated Facebook, Twitter, and email accounts, and stalked radio stations, studios, and the streets of Hollywood.  They’ve even met a member of the band.

Don’t worry, they can quit at anytime…

“Since I began uploading my music to the internet I’ve been told my sound was similar to that of No Doubt and that my voice closely resembled Gwen Stefani. I’m always very flattered when I get those comments especially because I’ve been a fan of No Doubt since I was 9 years old. I had just started my band and we were coming up with ideas on how we could open for a good band and get our music heard and that week I had a dream. My band was at a huge party and we were hanging out with the members of No Doubt talking about a great performance that we had together. When I woke up it hit me! Why couldn’t we just open for No Doubt? We obviously carried a similar sound and would be a great choice to open for them. But how could we not only get their attention, but convince them to let us open for their next tour? We came up with some crazy ideas and decided to not only go thru with all of them, but document it all and have you go thru the journey with us!” [DigitalMusicNews]
