That's why providers often make a post about "what to eat in X City."
Personally, the typical post on "What's good to eat here?" is very generic and over-used, so I like to be creative. But since this one didn't translate well, I'm thinking something with a bit more flair: "I hear The Cars are playing in [X City] this Friday - Sunday, and I've got front-row seats! The Cars are my favorite band, and they make me feel... SO amorous. I love throwing my T-shirt at them on stage. But then who's going to drive me home?"

Based on the narrative you have posted above, you could be found to be in violation of the No Advertising Policy.
- "I hear The Cars are playing in [X City] this Friday - Sunday, and I've got front-row seats!"
- Announcing Availability /Dates you will be in town.
- "But then who's going to drive me home?"
Below is the Teaching Moment sent to a Lady who has posted in a Forum, and it has been deemed to be an Advertisement.

As of September 2019, Eccie no longer permits advertising in its Forums.
While Providers are challenged now by the Eccie guidelines, many are trying to pique interest by use of the Eccie Forums.
Providers have always been able to post ThreADs to promote themselves and help to secure interest from the Hobbyists.
Hobbyists have also been permitted to post ThreADs to promote visiting Providers.
There is a fine line between a ThreAD and an AD.
By posting any of the items listed below, you change a ThreAD (as way to indirectly spark interest in you) into an AD (directly seeking appointments by announcing any of the following):
- availability/dates
- services (including activities that you do not participate in)
- rates/fees/specials
- Seeking an Appointment
