Hello everyone, hi Shannon and Jamie!
We recently played a Sofar Sound show in our hometown and our friends wanted to hear about house concerts and now we have some people who are interested in hosting a house concert themself.
One person owns a business and she was thinking of doing a concert at her business location which is a great, open space. But she is worried about insurance and what happens if something happens and what if people want to bring their own beers or two...
We have another person who is worried about their private home and what if people get drunk and drive home and have an accident etc.
What do you tell people if they worry about these type of situations? And how can we protect ourselves from being sued just because someone knocked over a vase or tripped over a carpet or....
Any tips on how you and other handle this would be wonderful.
Thank you for sharing all of your house concert wisdom with other musicians. It is greatly appreciated!
