DUDE since its a "rave" and underground and everything. You should print off like 500 fliers. Then invite all the kandi kids. Then have the event called PLUR. Then after that play happy hardcore and say how E changed your life......

I'm just giving you . Scout local talent, make sure if you need a permit for it etc. If its going to be a public place your doing it at. Ummmm make sure u have lasers. Test the sound, where is the best place for the speakers to be. Could make the event themed if you want Pajama night. 3 ways to approach the cost.

#1 Charge the near exact amount it will come to for all the equipment.

#2 Make profit, you know how to do this

#3 low low cost, charge 7 bucks for wata

print out loads of flyers and go promoting at parties as much as you can beforehand. Just go to clubs or events of the same genre or type as yours and distribute flyers to as many people as possible telling them about your party, plus its free, so you will be able to win over alot of people.

do about three times the amount of promotion you think you should do!

make sure the amps power add up to double the speakers power. then you know youll be driving them well. if you cant feel the bass nicely on a test then get more sound equipment.

you can have the test lights and venue ever and a wicked sound rig will make up for it!

then just make sure you got decent dj's and music.

and a lazer / strobe /smoke / u.v setup...

1. Make sure you have a good fog machine and good lighting
2. A good DJ
3. Use something more hands on other than computer mixing (Turntables, CDJs... ect.)
4. Good sound System
5. Good tracklisting/music
6. Drugs (if it isnt the greatest rave people won't notice because they are all trippin' out, just get dealers to go sell it or something... blah)
7. PROMOTE THE OUTA IT!!!!
8. Ignore #6
9. Last Resort: Pull a 'WHAT WOULD TIESTORZ DO?'

Use all the money to rent walls of EV speakers.
