Reply #16: In between bands we'd have a speech from the stage.

At the concerts we'd have information tables set up where we'd hand out literature and sell stuff like books and T-Shirts.

We'd use the money to pay to have a booth at the State Fair, among other things.

We also kept trying to pay for a billboard, but they wouldn't rent us one.

What the hell are you talking about?

You got something against fund raising while informing people and having a good time?

On edit, I forgot to mention that of course we charged admission to get into the concerts.
