form a band, write some tunes, convince your mates you are the next big thing, spraypaint your name all around london, put out mock press reports saying how much peel loved your stuff (he can't exactly dispute it now), get someone official sounding to ring up the garage and ask if its ok to do an a&r showcase gig there, and watch them pull your arms off, or simply ring them up and ask them?
