Description

We are extremely excited to have Lucas Sacks, Director of Booking of The Brooklyn Bowl, joining us as our guest on No Simple Road this week!
Lucas is a live events industry professional with over 10 years experience. Beginning as an intern at the Bowl in 2012, Lucas now books and oversees multi-departmental coordination of upwards of 700 concerts & music-related events per year for a space ranked annually with Pollstar's top 10 global club-sized venues.
We had a blast talking with Lucas about:

The way he got his start in the industry.

Learning how to make bands offers they can't refuse.

Blurring the lines between 'work' and 'life' in order to stay plugged in.

Navigating the 2020 shutdown while working at a venue like the Brooklyn Bowl.

How they figure out where to put new Bowls.

Ways he goes about staying excited about his career in the industry.

What it feels like to actually be working his dream job.

What it has been like for him to have such an incredible mentor in Peter Shapiro.

... and a whole lot more!
