<font color="#cc0000">I'm definitely interested in performing and coordinating music as part of a Noisebridge Fundraiser (I've updated the wiki entry here[1]), especially if it is in April. I'd like to hear of any past experiences with music in the space, or if anyone strongly supports/disapproves of the idea. I want to state multiple times that nothing is confirmed at this point unless others feel live bands are appropriate.</font></blockquote>
</div><div><br></div>No previous knowledge of bands playing live in the space but I think it sounds like a magnif idea that could draw in the masses. One night only for both bands & art auction (if the auction happens—Kim & Dan's idea), no danger of space devolving into bandstand/art gallery. Looks like we have enough people for a music wing of the planning group now. What remains is more interest/discussion from the communit@. We @ <b>ZiP</b> (whose <a href="http://zine.noisebridge.net/zip/ch3">3rd chapter</a> was recently released online) can commit to having print copies of all 3 chapters of ZiP + additional goodies to sling @ the event. Let's have other zines, Tshirts, stickers, souvenirs as well. We will staff the merch/swag table. I posted a lengthier response to the wiki <a href="https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Art">benefit planning page</a>. We need to set a date asap for those doing promo/PR. Let's make this happen if we want it. The inspiration came strong during Aaron Swartz's memorial/hackathon, which seems a good augury.<br>
