Are you thinking about a possible series of events Jay or one big 'see how it goes' affair?
If you think there may be more to come then a free party could kick things off nicely with the vision of taking the idea forward.

What timescale are you thinking Jay? This year?
Also what could the event be called?

For me, that decision would be made after the first event. It wouldn't necessarily be based on "Did enough people turn up?", but a combination of - did the preparation stress me out too much, how much money have I lost, was I buzzing my absolute tits off when everyone was having a great time?
In short - definitely open to a second or further event(s). But, I wouldn't say I was approaching this with a "Let's make a top event brand and see if we can really do something here" attitude.

No estimated time whatsoever yet mate. I don't want this to be rushed. But, equally, you need to put a date on these things to give you/the group something to work towards so people don't become idle.
I think once we have a definite core of people that are ready to commit time and money to this - then we can say "Right, let's aim for February 2015", for example. Then as we formulate a line-up, contact DJs and hunt for a venue - a date will naturally emerge.

I'll come play pretty much anywhere for a flight and a bed and a promise that I won't die either en route or on location (plane crashes withholding).

So, we're starting to get an idea of who is seriously on board now.
Deano, Ben, Ken, Olly, Rowan, Jamie and Jay.
Sound about right?
Everyone PM me your e-mail address and mobile numbers!

I remember you having words with Darts about "HappyHardcore.com" appearing on a flyer.

I think international bookings are a bit beyond us for a first event mate!

ahh I don't remember the specifics on this sorry, but is all good, in general if you want to call anything a "happyhardcore.com <anything>" you need to ask... Just the same way you can't make an HTID event without asking :) You also can't say you're from happyhardcore.com as a DJ credit unless your a mod or higher :) Same deal you can't call yourself "DJ ABC from Raverbaby" just because you play the records :)
Logos are cool, community events are all good... I'm just trying to avoid any legal issues (I have had people try to sue me because as you all know I create all happy hardcore music in the world apparently!?) plus I don't want confuse official things with community things for people that are unfamiliar with the forums and the members :)

I have a background in events (have run several), with helping to run AWF and am completing a 3 year bachelor degree in entertainment business management in six weeks which part of has been running ACTUAL events in all scopes.
If i lived over the pond i'd be ALL over this like jay on a woman with a dong - but ANYTHING i can help with - just ask! I can be especially helpful with the business side as i've been doing this for a while.
An interesting thing might be to start a kickstarter program for this kind of thing. Maybe a lot of people in the local area would be willing to chip in a couple of quid to get this going? A few quid from a couple of hundred people could make a HUGE difference.
If you want my skype or email or phone number just let me know! Be glad to help.

Depending on when it's on i could help facilitate with projection mapping/lighting/stage design
I've done stuff previously for a fair amount of festivals and events in Europe and the UK.

Thank you both very much lads. Much, much appreciated.
We're looking very low scale (150-200 capacity venue) and financing isn't an issue. Certainly very grateful for both of your offers for assistance though - I'm sure we'll need help from a number of people!

I, too, am in the London area, Jay, so I'd be happy to help if needed. I helped run a do in the East Mids. many many moons ago where we used to get one mainstream headliner per event but the aim of the game was to have as much fun as possible.
Edit: NB: I knew it was a Wayne's World reference before I clicked in to the thread.
