L.A. Band Threatin Faked a Fanbase To Land a European Tour No One Attended

Talking up your own band a little bit to make it appear that you’re more popular than you are is a rite of passage for young acts. We’ve heard of plenty of bands that’ve exaggerated sales or live show numbers to land a gig or two, or talked themselves up to national media for some press attention. It comes with the territory, and it’s usually harmless.

Not as fraudulent as Threatin, yet warily similar....
