Ten!

Hey Fest Fans, I need your input. As you may or may not know, the upcoming Kansas City Irish Fest (Labor Day weekend, 2012. Just 295 days away!) will be our 10th. Which to us is a big deal. Hell, in this business it's a huge deal. It's a tough economy for the fest bidness. We've been very lucky and we've worked very hard to be successful. So yeah, our 10 year anniversary is a big deal. And we want to make it big party. A gigantic party. Which is where I need your help.

Tonight myself and some of my fellow festival founders and past board members will meet to brainstorm ideas for our 10th birthday. And as usual when it comes to creative thinking, I got nothing. So I figure if you kids give me a bunch of great ideas, I'll present those as my own, I'll look like a genius, won't have to pay for my drinks, and might be able to sneak in the one idea I do have (Saturday night, Boulevard Stage: Gaelic Greatness-A Concert For Dan Regan). And I don't have to worry about getting found out because I know none of those old timers I'll be meeting with tonight know how to turn a computer on, let alone find and read this this blog.

So if you have an awesome idea for our 10th Kansas City Anniversary Irish Fest, lay it on me. I'll give you full credit, silently, privately deep in my heart, as I take my bows. Thanks, kids. XOXO.
