your best bet it is probably getting it at a local venue, because getting it in a park or some otehr public place renders you with a whole otehr bunch of problems, like council permits and noise levels and picking up litter after and all sorts of stuff, getting it in a venue means all that stuff is covered when you place the deposit etc, you just have to worry about promoting the thing.
good luck, good cause  |
I figured if we had a charity behind us it wouldn't be such a big deal to get permits. Our town has this noise level law where it'd have to over before 11 PM which isn't so bad. I also figured that if I can turn this into a large event I can have even local places sponsor basically doing the majority of the concert day hardships for me while I focus on my job as an organizer.

As of now somewhere on the south shore of Long Island. It's still only a little past the talking/planning state. I'll keep you updated.
I'm sure it wouldn't be a big deal bands to give up a day next year. I doubt anyone has gigs a year in the future that aren't huge. I can plan it around the most ideal date for bands.
This might be thinking too far ahead but we could certainly have an SS.org booth and I pictured Elysian having a booth with his a few of his guitars.
