ALL OF US ROCK — the audience picks the setlist

The show

The band walks on without a setlist.

Everyone in the room ranks the songs from their phone. Ranked choice, live, results on the screen behind the band. Whatever the room picks is what gets played.

It's ninety minutes of arena rock — Van Halen, Queen, AC/DC, Springsteen, Toto, Elton John, Stevie Wonder — played by a full band who can genuinely play it, with music direction by Lance Horne — Emmy winner, Juilliard, music director for Alan Cumming and Rufus Wainwright. The ballot is why the room is loud: people fight for their song, and then they hear it.

Nobody watches a setlist they chose the same way they watch one handed to them.

And there's a turn in the second half we don't spoil on a website. We'll walk you through exactly what it is before you commit to anything — we'd just rather your students find out in the room.

The first-round ballot projected behind the band — Round one on the screen behind the band.

Ranked-choice results updating live — Round two. Rankings redistribute live as the room watches.

What the band played in December.

In December 2025 we put on More Unites Than Divides at the Lincoln Theatre in Raleigh. Eighty people came.

The room worked. Nearly everyone in it took part, the band was excellent, and every review that came back afterward was positive. What didn't work was how we filled the room — we bought radio and mailers and learned that the only thing that actually brings people out is somebody they already trust telling them to come.

That's the entire reason this page exists. We'd rather work with a handful of campuses who each have a real audience than spend another dollar advertising to strangers.

Two ways to work with us

Same show. Two completely different deals.

Which one you are changes everything about the conversation — the money runs in opposite directions. Pick the door that fits and you'll get straight numbers instead of a brochure.

Campus programming boards

You buy out the house.

You pay a flat fee and the show is free to every student who walks in. No ticketing, no box office, no cash handling. We route several Triangle campuses inside one week, which is what makes the per-school number work.

Free admission for your students
Headcount and engagement reported back to you
We price against your cost-per-attendee target

For programming boards

Student organizations

You make it your fundraiser.

The show is ticketed at a venue off campus. Your organization gets its own link and keeps half of everything it sells through it, against a guaranteed floor. It costs your organization nothing either way, because your members aren't the buyer — the audience is.

50% of every ticket your link sells
$500 guaranteed minimum, paid regardless
$0 cost to your organization, ever

For student organizations

Not sure which one you are? Student organizations can also co-sponsor a campus date instead of running the ticketed version — same show, no selling. Say hello and we'll work out which shape fits you.

Why we're doing this

So you don't have to guess.

We're building a show we want to tour. To do that we need two things a campus can give us: evidence that these rooms fill, and footage of a full house.

We're not raising money off your members, we're not collecting your membership list, and nobody gets asked to sign up for anything at the door.

Partners keep half of what their own link sells. The other half goes into the production budget, which the door doesn't come close to covering — the difference is funded out of pocket. The band and crew get paid; the people producing it don't, yet. When a partner sells more, we both do better.

Eighty seconds from the last one.
