Live Music How much would you pay for a benefit concert?

[Jennifer Steele]

To build upon Kurt's question in the Jazz Festival thread, what would you really be willing to pay for the following scenario:

One day full day of music at a large outdoor local venue

4-6 local/regional bands with 1-2 headliners (the caliber of Bonnie Raitt or Willie Nelson - just an example)

Food & beverage vendors (diverse selection)

100% of the proceeds to benefit a major charity

Dread must be part of the line up!

Although the performers are not exactly my kind of music the amount I voted on is what I would pay for that type of music. If it was more along the lines of the music I REALLY enjoy that amount would go up alot.

I voted $75, but the amount would vary based on the organization -- I'd pay much more for a benefit for some organizations, much less for others.

Which Charity?

If I really liked the artist, I'd be willing to pay standard ticket prices ($50 - $100)...regardless of the charity. (i.e., even if it were to benefit George Costanza's "The Human Fund").

If I support the charity, I'd pay considerably more the nearer and dearer it was to my heart.

another idea, add local visual artists to the venue all under one tent, like a group showing, allow them to show/sell art and donate a % of sales to the charity.

Thanks for voting and thanks for the input. I do like the idea of the artist tents.

I'll give more information very soon!!!
