next event
spaxton village hall - Friday 2nd March 2012 8:00 PM
You know you want to come out to play!
What to do on the night for a slot
Things get going from 20:00 so its good to get there early to book a slot, they can go fast!
Find the big Drywipe board and write your name in an empty time.
Find a stage crew member and have a quick chat about what you need. Questions will be -
How many performers? What instruments? How many vocals?, Do you have a 'jack out' on your instrument? Do you want to sit or stand? etc. Ask anything you like now. Make sure if your guitar takes a 9v batt that its a goodun!
Get ready to come up while the act before is on - that means tune up and have all your stuff. You don't need leads and you only need an amp if you really must use your own.
Come up when its your turn and get 'plugged in'
Get introduced and enjoy yourself,
When finished PLEASE WAIT on stage to be unplugged! (no wondering off still attached)
If you would like some of the house band to play along just let us know, we can add drums, bass, guitar, sax, what ever you fancy. Even better to give us a heads un in advance of the material
