shane, first off....great idea. you and amanda are always very gracious hosts and your pad is such a great place for a show like this. i love the idea. cars, bbq & music on a warm summers eve....who could ask for anything more?
1) we need a name (every good show needs a name)
"cowboy constants gears, beers, and ringing ears summertime round-up."
or if you dont want beers in the name, replace the word beers with steers (as in bbq).
or if you dont like "cowboy constant", go with "buddha boys....".
2)we need a couple more bands ( Gary is in, and will be the headliner)
my little brothers band might be into something like this. for a sample, check out...

you could have an open grill where people bring & grill their own....or you could include the cost of a burger, chips & pop in the ticket price for entry, or maybe find a mobile food vendor that wants to make a few bucks.
i honestly dont mind paying extra for food or bringing my own.
I want to pay the Bands so I am thinking Ticket sales....
anywhere between $10 & $20 seems fair to me. the cost will reflect the number of bands playing, food, etc.
good job & good luck.
