Potential artist as of now.

My main goal is Cypress Hill - They aren't on tour then, not sure if they'll take that date, but I'm making the offer and hoping they take it. I'll throw in a little more then their usual to get it done if I have to. They're around $50k to $70k if they take it. My numbers include their airfare and extra costs for hotel rooms, etc.

Snoop Dogg - was the original goal, but he's $100k, which is a good deal, but I can't be sure I can raise that much quick enough. So I'm not pursuing it as hard until I hear back from a few others that will save our sponsors money and still give us a huge artist.


George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars - My second choice as of now if Cypress Hill doesn't jump on it. They are the best band of all time and will tear the roof off the mutha sucka! And they'll be around $50k plus rooms and stuff. Great deal if you ask me and the crowd will be super happy, everyone loves a good live band with tons of hits.

Busta Rhymes - Also in the running, easy to get a deal done with him. $50k to $75k. A for sure crowd pleaser, can't go wrong with him.

LL Cool J - wants around $85k plus rooms and airfare. Too much if you ask me.

Ludacris - Perfect artist for a pimp and ho party, around $75k. Lot's of hits.

Kid Rock - Is asking for $150k, not worth that much. He's out of the running unless he decides he really wants to do it for half the price.


The opening acts will include a big DJ, and Digital Underground with a live funk band behind them. If George Clinton performs, they'll jam together as well. That would be sick!

Anyway, shoot your suggestions here. I'm open to all kinds of music. Rock bands are usually more. Even Alien Ant Farm wants $25k to $50k, just so sponsors of Eroticafest understand, that is a real big price, they're not cheap either. I also wouldn't do that act, not that there's anything wrong with them, just not my pick and htey just played a party.

I'm giving numbers with the artists in the running to give you webmasters a good feel for why my sponsorships are a great deal. If you only pay $20 for a main sponsorship, and it costs $60k for the main act alone, you can see where the money is spent, then add the other venue costs and artists.


Any other artists you'd like to see?

50 Cent and G-Unit wants at least $250k by the way.
