The stage is about 10 by 10 feet, on the floor, in the corner by the patio door. There is no backline: bring your own drums, amps and instruments.

Load in from 5:30 on show nights through the patio door. Sound check at 6. We can run the FLOW 8 from the bar if you are a duo or solo.

How booking works

We run shows from a small console instead of email threads.

We propose datesand send you an offer with set time, pay and gear notes.
You confirm in one tapor counter, or decline. No email chains.
The show publishes itselfto the public calendar the moment you confirm.
Staff shifts get scheduledfor your night, so door and sound are covered, and staff confirm them.

What you get

A set time and pay in writing before you say yes. One tap to confirm, counter or decline. The show on the public calendar the moment it is confirmed, with a page you can share. Staff booked for your night so you are not waiting on the door at 7.

Live demo with sample data. Confirm the offer, claim the open shift, propose a date. Nothing is sent anywhere.
