Q:WHY WOULD I WANT TO PAY $15 FOR A BAND I CAN SEE WHEN THEY'RE PLAYING AT THE LOCAL BAR FOR NO COVER?
?
?
A:THERE ARE lots of reasons! HERE'S JUST A FEW:
1) OURMISSION/ CAUSE IS PASSING ON THE LEGACY OF FALLEN MUSICIANS TO ASPIRING MUSICIANS.
YOUNG MUSICIANS CANNOT GET INTO A BAR (where the music is) UNTIL THEY ARE 21. STUDENTS ENTER AT A DISCOUNT RATE OF $10.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE KIDS! OUR WINTER CONCERT SERIES SHOWS ARE ALCOHOL FREE AND GEARED TOWARDS INFORMING LOCAL STUDENTS ABOUT MUSIC AT A SAFE VENUE.
2) RAISING AWARENESS FOR THE MAIN SHOW TO RAISE FUNDS TO COMPLETE A WALL OF FAME AND GATHER MONETARY DONATIONS TO PLACE IN A PERPETUAL FUND. WE ARE PUTTING INSTRUMENTS INTO LOCAL STUDENTS HANDS FOR CENTURIES BEYOND OUR LIFETIME.
?
3 ) YOU GET TO SEE A SHOW LIKE NO OTHER.! THESE MUSICIANS BOOKED WOULD'NT NORMALLY PLAY ONSTAGE TOGETHER. SOME HEADLINERS ARE FROM OTHER COUNTIES, AND THE LEGENDS ARE FROM ANOTHER GENERATION.
4) We are all about KEEPING IT LOCAL! If it doesn't come around full circle, we aren't interested. Does your child play an instrument? Lets put more instruments in schools! Many students have the talent but cant afford it.
5) THIS IS A GREAT COMMUNITY MOVEMENT FOR A GREAT CAUSE!
6)We'll send you home with a shirt on your back!
You wont get an 'X' on your hand or a wristband to put in a memory book. YOU GET AN AUTOGRAPHED SHIRT AND A UNIQUE MUSICIAN MIX ONSTAGE. VENUES DON'T GENERALLY OFFER 3 EXCLUSIVE MUSICAL ACTS per night WITH a keepsake T-SHIRT AUTOGRAPH.
