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
