We’ll make this as easy as possible for the hosts. All you have to do is let us borrow your living room for a couple of hours and in return you’ll get 5 free tickets for friends and our eternal gratitude.
Here’s how it works.
1. You have a house or loft space that can comfortably and safely host 35-50 people. A place with a big living room, finished basement or other indoor residential space would be ideal. (sorry, we can’t do outdoor shows). There needs to be enough parking nearby and your neighbors should be cool. It would be a huge bummer if someone called the cops because of all the extra cars and people coming to your house. You probably shouldn’t do this if you live in a small apartment with a bunch of uptight neighbors or a cranky landlord.
2. The shows will not be open to the public and no tickets will be sold at the door. We’ll pre-sell a set number of tickets for each show on our website. Be realistic on how many people your place can hold. We need to know how many tickets we can sell in advance. Ticket prices will be $15.
3. We’ll provide you with a detailed list of everyone coming to the show. This way the host won’t have to deal with money and only needs to check people off the list as they arrive.
4. The host gets 5 free tickets for the show. If you have other friends who want to come to the show you can direct them to the link to buy tickets on-line.
5. We’ll ask people to start arriving around 7:30pm. The shows usually start at around 8pm. It should be over by around 9:30pm. We’ll make it clear to everyone that they should be out of your house by 10:00pm.
6. You don’t need to provide any sort of sound system. All you need is a chair for Will to sit on while playing and some kind of ambient lighting like a floor lamp.
7. Your home address will not be published on the web and will only given to those people who purchase tickets.
8. We’ll need your help to spread the word to your Facebook friends and Twitter followers.
We’ll review all requests. Once we have a routing figured out we’ll be in touch.
Thank you for your interest and support.
Bob
