Ok, I sorta need some help or advise from the folks in the UK - others may chime in but, this is specifically for the UK and/or members from Europe.
As some of you may know, a few comics and I are planning a tour of Europe, mostly the UK, but possible other areas. We currently need an angle for it. We are 3 comics, black, white, and me the spic. However, neither of us is stereotypical, as in, none of us represents our race in the stereotypical way - or, in the way the UK may imagine we act like. The black comics is not urban, the white comic has bad credit and is broke, and I don't look or act hispanic at all.
These are us:
Al Jackson,
Forrest Shaw,
Oni Perez.
So... how would we sell ourselves to the UK, and what do we call ourselves?
Names we have are these:
1) Black, White and Other
2) Not So Streotypical
3) The New America
4) Politically Benign
5) America's Underachievers
I'm whatever on these name's, nothing other than
Not So Streotypical and
Politically Benign are names I like. Also, how do we market?
What would the UK appreciate hearing from US comics, or for what reason would they come see US comics?
But basically, we're looking for a catchy name that would appeal to a UK audience but with a US angle.
Any idea or suggestion would help.
Thanks,
- Oni
PS. - These 3 Fags was already suggested and rejected.
