1: Please do not send in un-solicitored demos. Although we are a venue we are also a pub. We seldom have time to listen to our own cd's yet alone yours.

2: The best way to go about getting a slot is to email us with the dates you feel you can make. We will then put you in touch with the relevant promoter for that particular night.

3: If you wish to hire the venue for your own gig (headline + supports) we are very happy to do this. Out of town bands must bring a coach party and pay a deposit up front. PA hire etc can be discussed during a phone call.

4: DO NOT SEND MP3'S OR MP3 LINKS! WE HATE THIS!

5: Another way to acquire a gig in Derby is to visit www.therealderbymusic.co.uk. This is an open forum where promoters and bands alike hang out and do gig swaps organize events etc. Leave your details, sit back and wait for the offers to flood in. You can find our online forum here.
