Is there a place to rsvp? I want to make sure I’m not just missing it. Thanks!!
Nope, no RSVP — when we’ve done RSVPs in the past, we’ve been overrun with RSVPbots and had no idea how many people would show up. The Wednesday and Sunday shows are at large outdoor venues so we should have lots of space. For Friday’s Bowie tribute, total capacity is about 500. I’d recommend getting there early-ish.
