Are performers required to fill the rest of the bill?

I prefer this. We like to keep it at 3 bands total. 2 is fine, just no more than 3



Are performers directly required to sell tickets ahead of time?

No



Is there anything else folks should know about the process? Anything we missed?

Performers must be 21+ including any friends or merch people.
