|
|
I need help!!!!!
I have an opportunity to book Mnozil Brass for a performance in Plaistow, NH (40 minutes north of Boston) in March. I need to prove to the venue owners that Mnozil Brass would bring in a crowd.
Help me!!!
If you live around Boston, would you drive 45 minutes to see Mnozil Brass? Would you be willing to pay $20 for a ticket? I need to show that people will come!!!!
(BTW I have no financial stake in this, I just want to see these guys in person)
Please reply or send me and IM.
Thanks,

I don't leave anywhere near Boston; but I would drive much farther that that and pay a lot more that that to see Mnozil. |

When would the performance be? We live outside Philly, but the kids live near Boston. We could plan a visit to see them and go to the concert! |

I don't live near Boston, but if you can book them within an hour's drive of Pittsburgh PA, I'll be there! $20 is a bargain, BTW... I saw them at the ITG a few years ago and would LOVE to see them again!

Thanks so much for the response everyone! The community band I play in would be sponsoring the event, and the board is voting tonight for final approval. I am printing out your responses right now as evidence the demand is there. If they approve, I'll hit the ground running to get this done!!
Scheduled date right now is Tuesday, March 17th.
Thanks again for the help. I'll keep everyone posted.

I would gladly consider making the 12+ hour drive (or 2 hour flight) from
Detroit to catch them. And $20? That's nothing! _________________ "NEVER practice...ALWAYS perform" (Bud)

I have been working towards the same goal, getting Mnozil Brass booked while they're in the country in March of next year. If nobody else but brass players show up, the room will overflow. Thanks for trying to get this on and I hope you succeed.

I'll be in Providence, ~1.5 hours away. I'd happily go, and I'd bring friends. |
