I've decided with a few friends to start a benefit concert outdoors to take place sometime next year. Of course any SS.org bands are welcome
. In fact I'd love to have you guys here. (Shannon and Noodles keep your calendar's open for one day next june
)
Has anyone ever created a successful benefit concert before?
Of course I have plans, but how would you guys go about doing this? (Obviously I would need a permit, stage, bands, sponsors, publicity, etc. I'm talking about the small things in order to get these major objectives complete.)
I'm hoping to have a huge event with various styles of music to appeal to the greatest number of people I possibly can. I'm not doing it for profit. I'm doing this to either fund for cancer research, or to bring music to schools. It will all be decided shortly.
Anyway, any advice would be great.
