Rock legend Sebastian Bach is coming to Oroville for one unforgettable night at Feather Falls Brewing Company!

With a voice as powerful and recognizable as ever, Sebastian Bach has left an indelible mark on rock music, Broadway, film, and television.

Beyond the rock stage, Bach made history as the first heavy metal singer to star on Broadway in Jekyll & Hyde, with additional leading roles in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Jesus Christ Superstar. His television and film appearances range from Gilmore Girls and Trailer Park Boys to Robot Chicken, SpongeBob SquarePants, and The Masked Singer — a testament to his versatility and lasting appeal.

If your “business plan” is still living in your head (or on a napkin), this workshop is for you. In just two hours, you will shape your concept into a clear, focused business plan that speaks the language of banks, investors, and serious partners. We will tackle the real-world pieces that make or break a plan - packaging your funding request, breaking down capital expenses and working capital, defining your ideal customer, standing out from competitors, and showing that you and your team can execute - then connect it all to the numbers with sales projections, margins, and a simple digital marketing model using conversion rates and cost per click to build a believable marketing budget. You will walk out with a practical framework, filled-in notes about your own business, and the confidence to finish a plan you will be proud to present to a lender.
