My 2 shillings:

If you are in the US, there are ADA (Americans with Disablilities Act) laws and requirements about accessibility.

I think you should access your school related resources, and also the ADA itself. Maybe there is already a precedent, and you don't have to stress out over solving this.

How much is it realistic for him to expect, and what is realistic and proper, considering he wants to try to play music with your group, to enable him as much as possible?

A helper for the chair, 2 buff guys to help him up the bleachers, if they are willing, and a platform to sit on don't seem unreasonable. I think thats cool.

A handicap-ready bus is not your problem. That should already exist. Other wise the powers that be/$ that be should provide that.
