A Herculean task.

Trauffer on his three concerts and income
It's still chilled out in the catering area, but the main hall has been hammered and carpentered since 5am. The big stage is being spruced up for the Heubode party - all designed and built by Trauffer and his team.
Trauffer performs for his fans big and small. Who is the more demanding audience? Not an easy question: "The children's concert is a black box," says the 46-year-old.
Trauffer has big plans for his concerts - including with musical guests on stage. He is still keeping all the acts involved a secret. And the income? Will Trauffer be able to go on vacation for three months after the three concerts - with his family?
He talks about this and much more in the video above.
