Be a part of the team that is building The September Concert into the world largest peoples' concert. Our vision is to envelope the globe with music on September 11th every year.

All September Concerts are expected to adhere to our three basic principles:

• Freedom: All venues, musicians, and organizers are free to design and organize their own concerts;
• Equality: All music and all musicians are treated equally, regardless of genre or background;
• Accessibility: All music is offered free of charge.

Time your concert to best suit your venue. As September 11th 2006 is a Monday, many concerts will be held between noon and 2.

There will be a 2:00 p.m. nationwide sing-along to "All You Need Is Love". Lyrics and chords will be provided. If this time does not work for your event, we encourage you to include this song at any time. Additionally, statements that explain our mission-to fill the skies with music every September 11th-are to be read at intervals during the concert. A sample statement will be provided.

1. You Will Need
     Musicians
     Venue
     Volunteers
     MC (volunteer or a performer)
     Sound equipment, if needed
     Banner (In TOOLKIT)
     PR materials (In TOOLKIT)

2. Receive Assistance If you know of an organization or venue that regularly has musical performances enlist them to create a free concert for your community on September 11th. Or approach community groups, schools, libraries, city government, etc. to see if they will sponsor and/or participate.

Places to begin include:
     Mayor's office
     Arts Commission or Arts Council (or similar name)
     Music schools
     Universities
     Performing arts groups (orchestras, youth orchestras,
     choral groups)
     Churches
     Public Libraries
These groups can assist you by providing a space and/or sound equipment, promotional support, musicians' contacts, financial help, and volunteers.

3. Determine Time/Duration of Your Concert
(September 11th 2006 is a Monday) Think of your venue and the most appropriate time of day to attract an audience. If it's an outdoor space (e.g., City Hall plaza or a park), a lunch-time concert would attract more audience than a lateday/ evening performance. Schools or libraries might prefer a mid-afternoon concert. An evening concert might be more appropriate at a church, etc.

4. Provide Details
