Peace Fest 2005 Websites & Forum

YAY! We now have a Peace Fest 2005 Forum. It was created by I, Nathan. There is also a web-site about The Peace Festival, but it needs to be worked on.

Forums: Here
Website: Here

If anyone would be willing to write an intro. essay for the web-site, please contact me and we will get it up.

 

oh hey does the website load for you? its just a white screen for me.



ooo can i be a moderator/admin on the forums. i already registered and replied to a couple of ur posts

 

looking good so far!

 

the website isnt up is it? cuz i cant see anything on it unless its just a white screen

 

I think we're going to have something here. I think that we could start something that will be the first of many great festivals, or a 2nd coming of the 60's revolution. Either way, we're on to something.

 

I think you may be right, MB, but it is going to take a lot of work, and possibly money to get it done. Is everyone REALLY up for that?

 

go to the forums. There are about 8 people now thatd love to help make this festival great.

 

Seriously, my band would definitely travel to Ohio to play this event. How would we go about getting on the list of performers?


To play for an audience that appreciates the heart and soul that most modern day music lacks would be paradise for me.

 

for now, its in Bluffton Ohio. This may change though

 

aaaggghhh!! the website still doesnt load for me. It loads halfway and then it freezes everything I have open. Is this happening to anyone else? or am I just unlucky?

 

I posted this in the other Peace Fest thread on Hipforums but that was before I realized we had this one here. Sorry. I'm postin it again for people who didn't read it. I'm sure it's not that important of a breakthrough or anything....but hell, here it is. Also, I have relatives who own a conference ground in Ohio. Does anyone want me to check in on it? Like find out the available space/time/regulations things like that? My mom said it may be large enough for what we are planning....it has kitchens, cabins, things of that nature that I feel would be perfect for the volunteers and for guests. Also, ofcourse, there are the campsites,etc. I'll check into it if you want me to. Let me know. Loves.

"Okay.....So I'm just going to jot down real quick what I think the control topics should be....You know, like, the topics that certain people are going to work under....Tell me if I miss anything. Also, pretty much everyone has to work together at some point, the different areas and all that....BUT, only on a few aspects of ever topic. I also think there should be a team leader for every topic so that team leaders could converse with eachother on all plans, problems, etc.

1)Event location planning:
Put together a list of requirements for the event location, such as, how many people expected vs. acres/square feet; type of terrain vs. health/sanitation/security/weather problems; location vs. relevancy to the event itself.....does a certain location have a spiritual/historical meaning?... All those kinds of things. It's alot of work...Lol.
2)Sanitation/Food/Water:
That's self explanatory.
3)Music/soundstage/etc.:
We're certainly shooting for a certain type of music....SO, I think that whoever posted that idea about sending samples of the music and going over what can be expected/choosing who should be there, had a great idea.
4)Campsite manager:
How many people vs. size of campsite...any pricing information...rules on campfires/booze/etc. (work w/ security on that one). The rest is self-explanatory.
5)Product Vendor Mangagement:
Once again.....Self-Explanatory.
6)Security:
People who would be in charge of getting security information regarding the regulations of this kind of event....also, after attaining the said information, they could be the Peace Fest "Anti-Police" Security....not as a title, but in theoretical terms. You know what I mean, I hope.....Anyway....Also,in charge of basic rules for overall conduct.
7)This one is a maybe..... But a team of people who have other assignments as well, who could travel around and pick up the volunteers a couple days before the show until a couple days after for set-up/clean-up, etc.
8)Advertisement management....Ofcourse, EVERYONE will advertise but there should be a plan for when to release certain aspects of the Peace Fest details and how to go about it. Also, where the areas of advertisement should be...A main "logo" or "symbol" specifically designed for Peace Fest to be used and manipulated on all posters.......etc.
9)Volunteers to be placed where needed the most.

Okay.....that's all I've got for now. I hope I helped in someway. Peace, love, and freedom."

MMG, we would LOVE to have you come and play at peace fest!!! You can come over and talk to us at the peace fest forums. We have you down to play! We will talk more once we get somethings set in stone (li.e. location.) It's great that you guys want to play for the love of music! More power to ya!

 

Oh yeah.... About the music. IF I get a band together ahead of time, I'll send you some samples or something. IF NOT and we can't find enough bands to fill the time slots......Then, if anyone plays acoustic guitar/drums/bass/etc. than join me and we'll play some oldies that we can figure out ahead of time....I think it would be fun to improvise. LOL. Otherwise, let me know anyway and we'll just get together at a campsite and play or something. Peace, Love, and Freedom.

 

I've got some web design skill nder my belt (not that I wear one lol), and I'd love to work on that site for you. I think this Peace Fest thing is a great idea. I dunno if I'll be able to make it to Ohio, likely not actually, but I'd love to help out in some way, and I can sure do some stuff for your site if you so desire.

Peace,

dude this peacfest sounds groovy man! i'm starting a band (ImmIgrant) & we're all about making music how it sounded back in the 60's & 70's. so far it's me on lead guitar, jhared on back up guitar & jim on bass. but we're working on it i posted up fliers at local music shops so we can find a singer & drummer. i'm from pa so if anybody is interested go on our website. check it out & contact us. check it out!

 

omg! Youre really really doing this?!!? yayyy! Is it traveling around or just at one place?? Okay, so I should probably read it and find out....but...im just to excited! heh! Hip idea!!!

 

I just want to hug you! I am so happy that someone finally is doing something like this! I only wish it was a little closer to home, heh. We should have like...a couple differnet ones in diff. locations....

 

I'm still here people...if we're gonna do it's gonna take MONEY. that's a problem. i'm willing to help, how long will it be.....3 days . i dunno when you get people to come, fliers out, money & all that talk to me. i'll play there.

 

I think this is a wonderful idea! Like rainbow gatherings.

Hey, everybody should feel free to come visit us at our peacefest forums: http://peacefest2005.proboards27.com

See you there!

Peace, -Ana

 

Please, please, please, please, please make the date in mid summer.


I'm going into my senior year of high school and know quite a few neo hippies who wouldn't be able to make it up from Florida if the date was too late or early in the summer - I'm sure that goes for lots of people still in school.
