I'm going to be a freshman at IU this fall and I'm wanting to organize an event this fall near Bloomington, IN as there is still some (small) interest in EDM at IU, but being one of the biggest party schools in the country I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to draw in a crowd. Everyone I've talked to has been supportive of the idea, but I have no idea how to organize this. I figure our best bet would be find a large building out in the country (shouldn't be hard, Indiana is 95% farmland), and I know a few people who could hook us up with sound equipment/lights. I'd have to find a few DJs in the area who could spin for the evening, but my main concern is, is it legal to hold a huge event like this and do I need to get some kind of permit? I really think this could spark some interest as I'm sure a lot of students from IU (as well as TAs on here!) would come.
So what are some other concerns that I should know about organizing something like this, and am I getting in over my head trying to do this? :conf: |

I think it might be better to organize closer to the city, not on a farm. See if there's a large hall, or some sort of auditorium that isn't being used. (I just dont want to get lost in Indiana somewhere and get picked up by the 5-0 on a dirt road at 2 am trying to find a barn)
We would certainly be interested in playing something like that. |

| PM Phreek. TA Addiction @ Purdue was a blast. Good luck with the event, I think you should definitely go for it. |

Good call, I'm sure there is a building somewhere on the campus that could be used. I was thinking about the farm idea because it'd be farther out where playing music till 5-6am wouldn't be much of an issue. Then again, people who aren't familiar with the area would probably have a hard time finding the place.
Where was the TA event at Purdue held? |

Yeah, the only reason I brought that up is that I attended a bunch of outdoor psy-trance events held out in the boonies back in 2005 and i got lost plenty of times. plenty. |
