Thread Name: How much room for a House concert?
Subject: RE: How much room for a House concert?
I am not sure our artists expect to make a profit on concerts. Usually they are on tour and looking to cover travel expenses for the night and maybe sell some CDs. We have had as few as 6 and as many as 40 here. 20 is plenty big, I think depending on the artist. I too have one bathroom - it is a problem especially when someone "misses". Don't ask.

Janie, it is a lot of work but I promise it is worth it to have your home filled with beautiful music and good people. Try one. See if you enjoy it.

Jacqui handles the arrangements for ours and publicity. I provide the place, some beds, a breakfast, and sine/beer. But food and drink are not the norm. Some offer coffee and tea and some snacks. Ask for help if you need it and donations of food, plastic and paper plates and stuff. They add up.
