"A Place For For Happy Feet"

Question and Answers
 
SETUP

When and how Will the band setup?

 We always try to set up before the event begins and people arrive. Some­times the timing of the event prevents this but usually as soon as the room is open we are there. We move our gear on wheels to prevent damage and never leave a mess behind. If there is no elevator or dock access to the hall we may have to charge an extra costs if the load-in and load-out is espe­cially difficult or the event requires unusual load-in or load-out times. This is pretty rare and we usually know about the tough places in advance so you can be advised well ahead of time

TRAVEL

How far will be band travel?

 Anywhere that THE TRIBUTE SHOW has been contracted to play. Traveling out of the area can be arranged but of course, we would have to in­clude all accommodations, equipment rental if necessary and other travel charges in our fee
Our SPace

How much room and power does the band need?

We need a space that is 15 feet wide by 10 feet deep minimum. In a big room we need at least three good 10 amp circuits if you want an uninter­rupted show (no blow fuses). If additional sound and or lighting equip­ment is required we'll need more power
Equipment

How good is your equipment?

Top of the line. Our equipment will easily cover most average size rooms. For a very large room or outdoor events, if the venue doesn't supply professional sound, we will make arrangements for a professional sound company to provide additional coverage. Although we take care of our gear and make sure it is properly connected and tested, all equipment is subject to certain environmental conditions. If the supply is weak, poorly grounded or noisy (neon signs or cheap light dimmers) it can affect the sound by introducing buzzes and noise.

SONG REQUESTS

Can we make requests?

Yes. If you would like us to learn a specific tune for your event we can usually do it. Obviously we can't perform something from an opera or classical work but most swing and R&R can be arranged. Due to the fact we only have a limited amount of time to work up music for performances every weekend, we need at least 45 days advance notice and a copy of the score or a tape/CD of the music. Too often people are stuck with a CD playing instead of us because they called us too late and left us no time to prepare
FEES & CHARGES

How much do you charge and when can I book the band

 Like most businesses, we are subject to market forces, which mean some days of the week are more desirable than others. This also means that our rates are different. Typically Friday and Saturday night events attract the highest rates (other than new years eve). Overtime is per half hour which may be arranged at anytime before the last song. If you would like to know what we charge feel free to call Chris Bond on 02-4965 7236 or Mob 0412 786846. Please book as early as possible to avoid disappointment
hidden costs

Are there any other charges?

 No. Everything will always be completely documented in a contract for our mutual understanding and protection~ If you request lighting, sound reinforcement, DJ services or anything that requires additional personal, rental fees or travel, accommodation etc. this must be contracted and ar­ranged in advanced.
