Well! So you're interested in booking the band, eh? OK then. A few things you should know. (They call this a "Rider" once your band is REALLY cool!)

1.) We do this for fun, but we like to get paid. The more the better. Let me elaborate. We're a cheap band, but even cheap bands cost money. Look, a crappy friggin DJ is gonna cost you about $800. That's a crappy one. Call around if you really want to.. So ask yourself "would I rather have Kip the high-school drop out with the mullet and really, really bad rented vest do my party? Or, would I have a bunch of semi-successful musical type lads with a whole bunch of cool equipment and lots of talent do it?" Yeah.
2.) We're happy to accomodate most requests unless they involve barnyard animals, and even then, you can still ask. You supply your own insurance on that one.
3.) We're happy to travel pretty much anywhere within reason. Reason is generally determined by utilizing note 1.), above.
4.) We'll supply the band, the gear, and the dudes to run it. We've got quite a nice, really, really professional sound system. It cost more than most peoples cars. We've also got lots and lots of really nifty lights that do all sorts of spinning and flipping and lasering out of eyeballs. I actually used to have a big long list of it all, but two things - one - who cares (but me)? Two, it needed to be updated, so I just said "F it."

So, like, we've got that covered, so you just need to supply the beer.*

*Our singer also appreciates Red Bull (Sugar Free, of course, at least 3 cans per hour we are on-site) and Stolichnaya Razberi Vodka. I (sorry, "our singer," right) really can't stress this stuff enough. Again, see number 1.), we do this for fun. You want me to suck? OK, then forget about the SUGAR FREE Red Bull and Stoli Razz. Oh, and also Ambien if possible, for after the show. And 3 bottles of San Pellegrino or Voss (Sparkling). Must be <34 degrees F, served with plenty of ice. No, seriously.

Hey, you know what? It might also be nice to have plenty of ashtrays available, as the band does like to smoke occasionally. We learned a while back that it isn't polite to put your cig butts out on the floor. Oh, and let's not have a lot of extraneous "stuff" mucking up the stage area. We'll need some space to set our teddy bears and prayer books. Wait, this was 5.), wasn't it?

SIX.) And power also. TRUST ME, there is nothing quite so anticlimactic as the power going out just as we're about to blast into the chorus of "Shook Me All Nite Long." It SUCKS. So better be safe - 3x 15 amp breakers will be excellent. 2x20 should also work. Here's a general guideline: if it has a room air conditioner, 12 sets of Christmas lights, 2 neon beer signs (the big ones with or without palm tree), a jukebox, Golden Tee ("Fore," or an older model, it DOESN'T matter), and the ditzy bartender's cell phone charger plugged into it, that's probably not going to work out.

VII.) One last thing - as long as you're going to be rounding up some things, now might be a nice time to check on the status of your mens room. Can you, yourself, Mr. Bar Owner, go in there without breathing through your mouth and just PRAYING you don't have to do #2? If the answer is "no," or you just laughed all too knowingly, then for God's sake, clean it up, man. I know, I know, I hate cleaning my bathrooms, too, especially after all my buddies come over and, uh, well, "spritz" all over the seat, but PLEASE. We're NOT in a third-world country here, and we'd really appreciate you doing your little part to keep it that way.

Ate.) Thank you.
