There's one truth you'll discover soon enough if you just opened a bar, if you're having a wedding, if you're holding a block party, and that is: Where there is live music, there will be people. There's no better way to boost attendance than to hire band to play a show for the crowd.
How many times have you gone to see a band that you knew you weren't a big fan of, because what the heck, it's a rock show, so why not? It's not just the music, it's the culture surrounding the music. Even if the band isn't really playing your type of music, you know that you can go to a concert or a local show to meet new friends, to hang out, to have a few drinks and not feel like you wasted your Saturday night. Simply put, music puts butts in seats.
Music has always been an integral piece of the development of the human race. Ever since the dawn of man, we were using music to commemorate successful hunts, to mark rituals, to call the troops to combat or to sport, and today we still use Rock and Roll to get ourselves going in the morning, we use soft songs to get to sleep after a stressful day, we hire bands to mark the occasion at weddings.
If we haven't made ourselves clear enough yet, let's put it this way: Don't you think Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley deserve just as much credit for the Baby Boom as post-war prosperity? The social aspect of music is the number one reason to consider hiring a band for your public event.
A live music show is what a marketing expert might call a great lure. It brings people in. From there, it's up to you to keep them interested. Obviously, a car lot that brings in some Rock and Roll to draw the crowd isn't going to make so many sales if they don't have good deals to go along with it. But the fact remains, a live show does bring'em in.
If you're running a business, hosting a promotional event, or really, doing anything where you're trying to bring in the public, you can read this in a different way: Where there is music, there are customers. Nobody ever went broke or saw a disappointing turnout for a public event or party while providing the people with beer, Rock and Roll, and a place to just hang out and socialize.
Now, of course, the better the band, the bigger a crowd you can expect to see at your event, but the fact remains that any music at all will bring more people in than a few fliers and a face painting booth. Music drives human culture, with no music, there are no parties, with no music, there really is no event in the first place.
As far as great lures go, the advertising and public relations industries have yet to top the drawing power of live music.
