jake User Info... | CALLING ALL PUNK, METAL & HARDCORE BANDS!!!! John from Whitebird has given the green light to let me book punk shows at The Jungle Room...with great sightlines, a decent stage and it's closest neighbour being Monty's, the place is just begging to go punk! Starting May 12th, THE CONCRETE JUNGLE will be delivering killer shows with low door prices, great drink specials, skate-vids & classic movies on the big screen and door prizes as well...it all starts proper-like on May 12th with Vancouver heavy-hitters, The Excessives, plus local rippers Friday Night Murder & Laying Waste. Bands need to be treated well for the effort they put into playing. The Concrete Jungle will ensure all bands who play get what they deserve and are treated with some fucking respect....a breakdown of all expenses and ticket sales will be provided for all bands. Local bands will be given a healthy guest list and additional drink tickets in leiu of money when an out of town band needs that extra money to get back to the mainland. We all know what it's like to be paying to play, but having tom travel on the boat kills you...local bands can suck it up and wait until the y play Vancouver. The favor I hope will be returned. This is just one of many ways I want to try and make this venue the best place in town to see to see live punk rock! Please contact me through my email ONLY....

_Griphin_ User Info... | Awesome there's a new venue, now lets hope they don't plan to rip off bands, this town always needs a new venue. (I honestly don't care what people think, Victoria venues are fair in what they pay out, though I've heard a few bad stories). - Sat, 8 Apr 2006 10:39pm Edited: Sat, 8 Apr 2006 10:40pm | ||
jake warren User Info... | nobody's getting ripped off. a breakdown of costs vs. tickets sales will be printed for each band. guarentees or other deals will be made prior to show date for touring acts. bands from Vancouver, up Island etc...will be given more $ for the extra travel. it's a pretty simple process. - Sun, 9 Apr 2006 4:20pm Edited: Sun, 9 Apr 2006 4:25pm | ||
_Griphin_ User Info... | See that's what I like to hear. But can you still do what your saying and survive financially?!? - Sun, 9 Apr 2006 7:17pm Edited: Sun, 9 Apr 2006 10:29pm | ||
jake User Info... | I don't plan on losing money or going hungry. with proper planning and knowing when to just say 'no' to a show, I should be ok. - Mon, 10 Apr 2006 12:35pm Edited: Mon, 10 Apr 2006 12:38pm | ||
