Sounds good , if its free people will turn up. Also give localbands some publicity.
Local bands have good followings but they wont pay£20 odd quid to watch them and andwhat they will see has some old farts, who they have never heard of.

Hate to say it but this isnt something new to this generation. It has been happening since schools began. Life is what you make it.
