im pretty sure garry oak is like 25-30 bucks an hour for the show then an hour or so for set up then same time for clean up.
and big fernwood is..im not sure probably hundred something or 2 hundred.but yeah if you couldent find a headlinder you should just get a bunch of smaller bands.shes like lately theres alot of news band getting formed and looking for shows i know of 5 bands that are looking for shows.maybe that could work or something.yeah but its sorta expensive.but worth it - Wed, 29 Mar 2006 8:09pm Edited: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 8:14pm

Gary Oak or Big Fernwood is a good choice. Adding Bitchfork to the the bill is also a good choice....lol http://www.myspace.com/bitchforkmusic - Wed, 29 Mar 2006 9:13pm Edited: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 9:15pm

is this tyler and mark beaty...beatie...aslkfjsldakf?


cause i want to see your band if it is.

i think gary oak is 60 an hour. and i think fernwood is 200 for the night.

with damage deposit on fernwood...i've never gotten gary oak though.

you should try to rent a church or something. - Fri, 31 Mar 2006 7:27am Edited: Fri, 31 Mar 2006 7:28am
