Festival of Musicians on a Texas Beach March 12-14

Festival of Musicians is a 3 day music festival created especially for musicians.
Multiple stages and performance areas are scattered over 200 acres of gently rolling land just minutes from the white sandy
beaches of the Gulf of Mexico. Right in the midle of Spring Break for 1.2 million college students.
Performers share music around the camp, or shine on the big stages in "The Guantlet" Multi Stage Showcase Competition
Competing Bands/Singers/Songwriters will "Run The Gauntlet" performing on a series of stages.
Performers share in Festival of Musicians revenues. 25% of gate proceeds from ticket sales go back to the PERFORMERS via the audience in the form of VOTING TOKENS called "Kudos"
Giving "Kudos" is how festival goers show appreciation for acts they like.
Performers trade "Kudos" in for cash and each "kudos" equals 1 vote.
Acts with the most "Kudos" advance to the higher level stages of the "Guantlet" and Big Star Status.
The TOP ACTS become the Festival of Musicians Headliners and perform on the giant mainstages for the entire festival crowd.
You may employ "Kudos" collection teams to help you collect "Kudos" from listeners. In fact, you can collect "kudos" just
about any way you can. For instance, you can perform as a band in "The Gauntlet" and perform on a singer/songwriter stage as
solo acts, pooling your band "Kudos" You can even gain "Kudos" playing around your camp.
Ticket amd camping fees have been kept low to ensure that everyone can participate. Tickets are 12.99 or $30 for a 3 day pass. Camping is $15 and includes a space for your car. Motorhomes/Campers/Trailers and other large vehicles are $1 Ft per day.
Festival of Musicians was created with a lot of love and inspiration by it's participants and we are all working together to make this a spectacular annual event with a world-wide draw.
There are about 130 confirmed acts so far with more confirming every day. We have room for 420. There is no sign up fee.
I hope will join us.
Sincerely,
Rick Shell
