The Elusive Concert

First off, the record company executives, tour managers and the band/performer(s) have a power lunch to discuss the possibility of a tour. Appetizers, entrees and the whole bar lateR, dates, range (ex. A tour of Europe? South west Aasia?...), price, venues and every other aspect of a tour is battled and finally decided upon. Mind you, this decision (assuming a concensus is the ulimate goal) takes more than a few lunches, powerful as they may be. Big questions need to be answered, expensive decision need to be made. The size of the tour, has to be thought out, is/are the performer(s) going for an intimate club like feel, or is a multi million dollar world wide arena tour preferred? Venues need to be confirmed and booked, then lighting, sound, transportation, caterers, drug dealers, pimps, advertising reps, and the rest of the

Will you be able to see and hear adequately from everywhere in the venue?

Now the last question is especially important, relating to where you’d like to be in the venue, location is very important, it can make or break the whole show. Now being an avid concert goer myself, this time is crucial. if so, will they end up dying pretty soon?, Are they popular?, Do you know a lot of people who like them?. A few more things to keep in mind, money, transportation, plans before and afterwards, will you be sober for this particular concert? Some concerts I couldn’t imagine going to sober, others need nothing at all.

Finally (after selling your soul to satan), you have obtained two tickets (seeing as you can only stand one other life form other then yourself), and we will assume that you are pleased with the seats you got, (3rd row, centre. hmm nice soul) this is the time to relax and laugh at others who don’t have tickets(at least they still have their souls). free world has to be chosen (within a set budget) and ultimately booked. Scalpers are now selling tickets for (if your lucky) six times the original prices. Flyers, newspaper articles, radio/TV announcements fill the air.
