So, the plan was:
All ages concert
6 bands for 6 bucks
Safe environment
Raise some good money for the league and gain more local attention
Can't go wrong, right? I mean, 3 of the 6 bands have a decent following, and one of the bands is young enough that they have high school friends still in town! And nobody ever does anything for young people around here!
Despite flyering, Facebook bombing, and being in a few local gig guides- including a "pick of the weekend" in a free newspaper....
12 people who were actually there to pay admission showed up.
I'm officially done having fundraising ideas.
The good side of the coin? What I'm now referring to as "Halftime show audition night" went really well. We did have fun and the bands rocked as though they were playing to a stadium and didn't seem bitter at all.
