Jamez, you want to organise a gig in school? what is it for?
well, basically the cost will mostly be in the sound system + musical instrument (MI) department.
let me do a fast calculation for you.
PA + MI = $1500
Say, you got 5 bands. Each band has 4 members. Initial investment = $1500 / (5*4) = $37.5
To break even, you need to sell 300 x $5 tickets.
Maybe you are in a school where they 'promote' entreupunership. Ask them for SEED funding, say $1000. ha..ha...
Then your investment is $500 / (5*4) = $25
* to recoup individual investment, you need to sell 100 x $5 tickets. :lol:
[Jamez, when you said, "Can you help me?" What help were you asking for?]
