need benefit show advice[views:4825][posts:3]______________________________ [Jun 19,2007 8:03pm - rhys ""] hello, i live in the middle of nowhere and i really want to set up some shows but there is nothing but vfw halls in my area and i don't have the money to rent them. i've heard that they will let you rent them for free if the show is for charity. does anyone know if this is true or have any advice about setting up benefit shows? |
