Vision: My name is Dan
Bawinkel, otherwise known as the Fatcalf. In the year 2001, in an
effort to help my own son's band I began a generator stage at Cornerstone
Music Festival in Bushnell, Illinois. Since that time I have been
constantly helping young people who would not normally get
to play the larger stages, play a great smaller stage known as
the Fatcalf Stage.
My interest peaked as
I was managing my son's band, and I realized that there is more needed
than just a desire to play music. With limited funds, how in the world
does a small independent band make a dream become a reality?
Other challenges have
challenged me over the years concerning band management and the
business aspects of the music industry. With all this facing me I
began to collect information from the professional music
industry. As I learned more I realized there is a right and a
wrong way of doing things. I have gained many friends, and now my
passion is how can I help the independent band???
With all this said, I
have developed this web-site along with the help of my good and
trusted brother Josh Osborne from Pahrump, Nevada. The web-design is
beautiful and I want it to, again encourage the independent band. I
hope the site is a blessing to you and your band. Please leave your
blog on the blog page and let me know your thoughts.
May the Good Lord bless your hard work and keep rockin' for Him.
