Here's a crazy idea: we choose a dozen or so urban or semi-urban locales in our [Southeast] region - where active JPF members reside - and organize JPF Showcases! I'm not sure how difficult it would be to arrange everyone's schedules, but I've booked enough shows to know it is possible. We could do large cities (like Nashville and Atlanta) on weekday nights (read: not-as-busy nights) to avoid venue-rental fees. The more rural showcases could be held on weekend nights (it's easier to reserve a Friday night in a rural town then, say, Nashville).

thoughts anyone? would you be interested in performing?

hello? anybody?

I'd be interested in something p.m. me with more info please

done!

You would still need a headliner to sell tickets. Bob is popular in Cincinnati so maybe he could draw a crowd. Otherwise, you'll need a street team.
