sorry, I don't know where to put this thread. but I think this section is the most suited... anyway.
a friend of mine is having a wild Idea of setting a wold record for longest concert (15 day's non stop) but, as far as i remeber, he's never set up a gig b4, yet alone a big ass one like this, he's planning to get some big stars to play (like billy talent) and a shit load of Indie/unsigned bands.
anyway, other than "give up" what kind of things would you sugest he do to prepare for such a thing. so far I was thinking.
how many watt's/decibles will you need to cover the area
(he already knows where he wants to)
how much pwr will you need, and where will you get it from.
what kind of stage?
where will you keep the bands? behind the stage?
where are you gonna keep the sound guy?
who is going to be the sound guy?
lighting?
advertising?
sponsers? who?
those are a few things I was planning to ask him, you guy's have any sugestions for him to think of or do?
thxs
(don't get your hopes up. his mouth is usually bigger than his actions.)
