Band Policy

IT'S ALL ABOUT. . . .YOU AND US!

  1. ALL-WE HAVE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY -No drugs or alcohol on the property!

  2. PERFORMERS-NO SWEARING ON STAGE . Replace the swears or bleep yourself. (Don't forget we are a "family friendly" venue) Also do NOT encourage moshing or else you jeopardize your performance. Ask KIDS to stop or we may shut you down. (our insurance company looks unfavorably on moshing-who knew?!)

  3. PERFORMERS--Load in is 6:00-6:10 . (IF YOU ARE LATE-THEN WE DECIDE THE ORDER YOU PLAY) Please drive around the back of the building and enter through the glass door. Before unloading equipment, please come to admissions to get your hands stamped, fill out a quick paper and to say hey. (Ask for Linda--If I'm not around Donna will help you out) *NOTE-only musicians in the back room/hallway area. Everyone else enters through the admission door.

  4. ALL-Shows generally start at 7: 00-ish . We usually have 4 or 5 bands a night. (exception-winter hours-on Sundays we start @ 4:00 ) Crowd size varies greatly--WISH I could figure out this one-it depends on the local bands added, popularity of these local bands, how well bands promote themselves, the like-ability of the bands, the weather and who knows what else! The least is usually 25 “fans” and the most-200. We ask that bands promote themselves because we pay the bills through admissions. (ADMISSION is usually $10.00-I KNOW $5 would be better)

  5. PERFORMERS--Set length is approx 35 minutes (+ or - 5 min usually-some exceptions) We encourage you to bring merchandise to sell of which you keep 100% of the sales. You may also qualify to recieve a QUALITY CD OF YOUR LIVE PERFORMANCE BEFORE YOU LEAVE! (Conditions apply)

  6. PERFORMERS ONLY -You can write on the wall AFTER you play-I'll find a space for you. You should include Band name/date/where you're from and then sign your names around it.

  7. PERFORMERS-Phone # is 603-382-8893 (let it ring-press 3 to leave a message) Call back. It does get loud in here. On show nights, no one is in until about 5:45 . If you are going to be late a call is required.

  8. ALL-There's no hanging out in cars or out back . If you are of age you can smoke out front in the designated area or step out for some air. (we found that this avoids a lot of temptation on your part and head aches on ours!)

  9. ALL -Please keep the noise down outside (esp. after 9:00 ) Neighbors have no problem calling the police. (OH-NO-O-O-O-O!)

PERFORMERS/ALL:
If you want to LEAVE A CD for us to play at other shows or

MAKE A DONATION

YOU ARE SERIOUSLY. . . . VERY COOL AND WILL BE APPRECIATED FOR THE REST OF YOUR ROCKIN' LIFE!
