Shmilly 519 Posted January 9, 2018 Aw well. There goes another promising one. On 1/8/2018 at 11:34 PM, BrenGun said: (also bands earn a shitload from Cheki) Do they? Maybe bands with attractive members, or ones that already have some level of popularity. Cost of polaroid slides/potential cameraman aside, it's also a big time investment. From experience I've had back stage at some indie VK gigs, they sure spend a lot of time making the same tired poses for countless cheki shots, and often after that even longer signing or writing on them.
