ever heard 'too many cooks ruin the stew'
that would be bound to happen if it were in MD
yeah but to do a float will be need financial help and there are a lot of TAs... a little contribution from many would be good. this kind of thing is not cheap.

i dunno, but you figure we have to rent a truck, build the float and rent the soundsystem for it... it'll be a lot.

I suppose they are not going to let just any joe schmoe enter a float, are they? A friend and I who are bedroom DJs wanted to rent a truck and spin (www.brianfriedlander.com if you are interested, I just started mixing really, so don't hate on my demos ), but I'm thinking banding together with fellow TAs might be the way to go to participate.
I quote from the LP site:
DJs - Please note! - We are getting a lot of requests for DJing at this event! At this time we are not handling the music programming for the Parade and Festival. All music will be provided by music collectives/groups/clubs who enter a float in the parade. We are currently compiling float entry requests and considering all applications that seem to be a good fit. The number of floats and logistics is currently being worked out and more information will be posted on the website soon.

If they have more float requests than slots, they will obviously started with the big groups and work their way down.
Why don't we get like a big sound rental/sound retailer to sponsor us...
hear me out
1.) there are so many companies especially in sound that would be willing to do this considering this is basically a music festival
2.) we'll get all the sickest equipment free! (well for the day atleast)
i'm gonna research some more. If i'm not mistaken even like a Nation wide company would probably do it... perhaps JBL? Technics?
