Can anyone here recommend a booker/promoter/venue outside Victoria that's good for Sunday and Monday shows? We're looking to fill a couple dates in September for us and an LA garage punk band.

the queens only has R&B cover bands,if your not one of the 5 bands that plays there good luck getting a show there. as for the cambie I've played the cambie over 50 times, it used to be a good place now it's dead, ya don't get paid and mgt is a little weird. - Sat, 26 Jun 2010 10:52am

Played a Sunday night all metal show at the Queens to a decent crowd, just over a month ago, made $200, a few pitchers, and sold a fair amount of merch. Same night Vancouver eliminated the Kings.. at the Queens.. - Sat, 26 Jun 2010 5:14pm
