Theme & Mood Ellipsis

Theme	Rheme
it	will be basically (‘as follows’)*
a lot of like-minded people	get together
	meet
	inspire each other
	bring a little more culture to this world

* The above analysis treats it will be, basically as a textual strategy — introducing what follows — as suggested by the information distribution and the simple present tense; cf basically, the thing is… .  Treating the instance as a single possessive attributive clause downplays the function of a lot of like-minded people both as point of departure (Theme) and as the carrier of modal responsibility (Subject), as well as the cohesion provided by its ellipsis in the final three propositions.
