Don't jump the gun only ask for ticket money after we hit $1000, and then start planning - we are in the ideation stage now, so all ideas need to be voiced.
For escrow services maybe ask around in the market threads.

Just checked the first page (the first time since I read it when I first saw this thread). Big red letters say something about reservations? I don't know if I reserved, but yeah, I'll be coming, and will have a +1. I'm bringing my spouse. No, that doesn't mean an increase in boobies.
reserving takes place by posting in this thread, but it is of course no obligation. more a protective measure in case more people want to attend as there will be tickets.
soon tm we will open ticket purchase. we plan to assign a unique 4 digit ID to any attendant, this will be sent via pm and kept secret. the attendant/buyer sends 1 btc and includes his/her ID in satoshis to the transaction. (for example member ID # 1234 will send 1.00001234 btc to the public party-adress) this will keep us from explaining how to sign a message to 1000 people. credit for this idea goes to sebastianju.
Who will be holding all of the BTC? And why do we need to buy tickets now?
Pretty sure we are going to need some sort of escrow on this.
we need to know that people are attending for sure, best thing to nail that is via payment (imho). we need to start contracting with all kinds of companies/services (venue, security, promoters, caterers etc.) it will be kind of hard to get contracts with no specific date down. but it will be impossible with no date and no money down. pretty soon we will need to cover minimum costs. escrow seems a good idea, but some of the funds will be needed before it hits 1000 $. of course we would need to only spend the very very minimum possible before it reaches 1000, since it will be like throwing away coins for cheap money.
this will be crazy to organize. but fun.

you might want to think about escrow?
Does anyone know anyone trustworthy who has a reputation of holding other people's money?

Now you're just deliberately confusing people

Is he our man to dj the Frankfurt $1000 party? 
That reminds me I still haven't put my name down...
That reminds me I still haven't put my name down...Did you hear that? "The Frankfurt Party"
I'm still very much for Frankfurt
Ah, I wasn't following the thread since I first read about it. Is there a strong voice for elsewhere? Maybe I should go back read the OP for a catchup! I like Frankfurt but won't object to elsewhere if that's the way it's going.
I don't think it's been decided, but the initiators and likely organizers are from Frankfurt.

I am very doubtfull that we would be able to afford even one big musical act for just the $1mil that this party will supposedly raise. The cost of the venue and everything else will likely be enormous.
Not really, Europe while fucked up in many ways, is extremely affordable when it comes to partying.3 stage party would run below 5k, provided they sell their own drinks.
I meant that some of the top tallents that were thrown around here (Robbie Williams *drool*) would probably want close to $100k if not more for a private gig like this.

Someone should make a poll of when this party will take place.
Speculation call it...
