Greeting Everyone, How large an event is this going to be? And is this a family event? Charity? Just wondering as it is generally easy to convince radio stations and local businesses to advertise for you when everything is organized and professional looking. As the sponcers grow, so does the ability to put on a larger event. Jamie Anawaty www.myspace.com/guitarkeyscom

Welcome to the forums jamiea..I think it is just going to be an informal event among the members of the forum here. I am not really sure if Rusty is going to advertise on radio stations etc. Maybe he will come along and answer that for you. And I am sure it will be a family event. If you have any more questions feel free to ask ;D

Well that is too bad Robo,depending on how many acts sign up there might be time for more than one set each. Just depends.
Welcome jamiea,glad to have ya.This is still in the planning stages,we really don't know how many acts are going to perform.In a few days we will have all the details worked out,and then I will post it on a bunch of sites,make some flyers and pass them out,and I can prolly get the events manager to do the same there in Springfield.And we can contact the radio stations,I don't know if they will do anything for us,but it won't hurt to try. This is a family event,as is this site,it's not for charity,it is to promote live music ,and a chance for area musicians to get together and meet and have a good time.
I agree organization is important,and we will get it together,this is the only way I can work out what is best for everyone.Once we work out the details then we can organize how it al will work,that is why we slated it for may to give us time to get some intrest.

I talked to my music minister, ran it by him first, because it is on a sunday, we'd need a slot that didn't conflict with him being at scheduled church services, but other than that he was in favor of it

I'm all for anyone and everyone coming, but I think we're gonna have to figure out just how many slots we want to allow. There are only so many hours in the day and the place we're going to be at is only so big, so we're gonna have to put a limit on how many bands can play and for how long. I've noticed by reading from page 1 to now that this is going from a local gathering of forum members to an all out party! Rusty, i may call you later today to discuss some things. Lots of great idea's everybody!!!

I hope this comes together! Sounds like fun...I'm still working on the band deal but I don't think they are going to do it. If I took my drums would I get to play? I might try to drive there and back...just have to see! I could bring my guitar too. I have some original music I wrote. I'll think of something!

Samuel I doubt I'll play any, so I'm sure you could sit in for someone. I'd say when the groups get tired of playing or when were eating or something, there will be some down time so just grab a playing partner and play some covers or something.
