I don't think this is something you should worry about. This is 
going to be an event where a big part of the audience will 
consist of musicians, friends or partners of musicians, or at 
least people who like music a lot. Again, it's not going to be 
Woodstock. If you ruin the atmosphere, and everyone runs away, 
chances are 5 minutes later no-one will know or even care who you 
are ;-)

Also, I will make it very clear in my invitation, that it's not 
going to be your standard indoor "music festival" with "festival 
bands". There will be a warning that some of the music might be 
experimental. As far as I'm concerned this will be a party where 
everyone can play what he or she wants. Even classical, blues or 
jazz - or just one oscillator!

A couple of examples: at the moment we have a Peruan band, a 
singer songwriter, a "shoe gaze" duo and a guy who has vowed 
never ever to play live again, even if he would be payed a 
thousand euros.

I hope it's going to be a diverse crowd, and hopefully the music 
will be diverse as well. Personally, I'm not interested in a 
"theme" festival. Every next act should be a huge surprise :-)

There should be enough options for sitting in a corner, escaping 
to the bar part of the venue, or even going outside for a walk. 
If, after 5 minutes, you're left with an audience of only 2 
people, well, I guess it's up to you to figure out if you expect 
and want that ;-)

Most important thing: FUN!

Cheers,

Gert
