cool....all the best.. one sugesstion.. plz have a bunch of beanbags along with normal chairs.....I hate most cafes for not having those :beer:
i dunno ... a cafe with live music sounds plain crazy, but should be try to explore the idea, i am sure we wont fail. it should only be bi-weekly - on days the crowds are the biggest and one day will be no-pay-no-fee scheme. that is if some amateur band wants to play covers for publicity, they should submit a tape for audition and then if they are good could get a slot. bangalore's The Club, does precisely that. i have friends who have ppayed in the club - no pay but no fee either. but a cafe with band is still plain crazy !!
So instead of starting some.. Its better to tie up with some local ones and standardise the products..
i am sure there are lots of "cool" types, who'd love to talk music over 30-60 bucks... without getting into boose (ie.pubs).
the details are for HIm to work out, as are the decisions are for HIM to take. we can only suggest. but look at the date for cafe igt - we have time yet. and rockshow by 2012 lol - gir sucks.
