I’m thinking of organising an event in Manchester but first want to get some feedback as to what different people are in to and what they would like to do.

It will definitely have a musical element to it, but what kind of music would people like to hear?
How would a themed event go down? – Any takers??????

If you were to go to an event in the middle of the summer, what would make you go? How could it be different from the rest?

If you have any ideas I would love to hear them, if you could also tell me a bit about your self, your age/occupation/likes and dislikes etc. Then that would really help me in my quest to bring something new and exciting to Manchester.

Thanks

Water Babe

I would probably go if it was a very warm day/evening, and if it was something unusual, I know it's very expensive to have major celebrities there (usually the most popular) but easier if linked to a charity cause,  then again you could contact a few "stars in their eyes" performers just to give it a bit of bounce.

Take That could be asked, whether they would do it is questionable, but for a large crowd, possible.  I'm a carer and that's all I'm telling you ! Best wishes anyway :)

Alas I am involved in a show in nantwhich for the August Bank Holiday - one of my civilwar re-enactment japes.  Shame there's something cool going on in Manchester  at the same time - good luck with the project.
