Hey, if I were to put together a benefit show for runaway girls and victims of domestic abuse, would any other musicians be interested in performing?

Edit;
{Performers} Full disclosure, guys. Starlight House is a shelter my sister and I set up, back when she was here. So I guess you could say I'm involved, special interest or whatever. I try not to advertise that I'm directly involved with Starlight House too much, because I don't want my fans showing up at the doors and getting in the way of people who really need help.

I swear I would never do anything that would stop the money from going to the people who need it, but if it makes people more comfortable, we can pick a different group to donate to. Or we could put some funds into starting up a new shelter.

I could come out of hiding for that, I think. A lot of my fans send me some really depressing letters akin to that.

Don't say I'm on the list, though, or the mall goths might, you know, storm the place. This is for a good cause.

Great! Thanks.

Might give the mall goths something better to spend their money on.

No problem, sport. I'm a pretty big advocate for runaways and abuse victims, no matter if they're women or not. I could actually fund the set-up and get a decent venue if you wanted.

True. Never thought of it that way. Personally, I'd be more concerned about the mix of concert-goers -- you don't want this show to wind up a riot, or any of that crap.

Actually, this got me thinking. Hm, you really don't hear about boy's shelters or any of that. When I ran off, I had to stay in my van, or seedy motels if I had the cash. Tough stuff. You hear about Women's shelters, homes for girls, but there really isn't enough focus on the 15-17 year old runaway boys demographic. I'll have to consider doing something else for them after all this.

If you want to help with finding a venue, that would be great. I have a couple ideas and was going to put some money into it, but the more help we can get from the performers means that the money we get from the fans can go straight to the shelters.

I have some pretty good security. I think we can bring everybody together for one night.

You should. Back where I lived before there was Haven House. The had some boys there. The biggest problem now is just finding enough space and beds, especially when the weather's so cold like this.

That would work. I'm thinking if I can get a couple of my tattoo clients to cough up some funding, maybe a performance, you'll have this thing set up in no time. I'll see what the other guys say. I'll give my contacts a call, see who I can lasso into this. I'm on board with funding. The money I've got is way too much for me, I never had this kind of cash before, so I've been wondering what I'd do with it.

Alright, I'll take your word for it, sweetpea.

I hear you. If there were more places in more locations - especially in the more northern areas - That would be great.

I would, but nobody knows who I am. And really, one dude playing cello doesn't make a concert. If you need any studio musicians or anything, let me know.

Well...I would, that is if you can stand having "Miley Cyrus" perform. :-) Since I took over for the girl and all. Let me know.

Yeah, that's fine. The more crowds we bring in, the better.

Then yes, I will help out anyway I can. Just let me know when and where.

You put this together, I'll get you a big pile of money. Hell, I'll pay for the whole shindig, just so all the proceeds go where they ought to.

I did have plans to shoot guys and sex up this redhead I know, but I suppose I can put them off for you.

Do you want to go on a trip somewhere? I'm sure you can find bad guys and redheads everywhere.

What... what's the word... genre should I play?

Whatever you like doing best. We have different types of performers signing up already.

I can sing, and I can kinda play the guitar. I'd love to help.

I do musical theatre and rock'n'roll. Pick which one you want.

I can do a little of both. I could probably fuse a few of the musical songs with a bit of rock'n'roll too.

Outrageous! We've got several other performers too if you need another person in a musical number. It sounds awesome!

Rockin'. I'll go through the songs I know and play around with a couple.
