We book our national concerts through Hunt Industries our of Lawrence, KS. We will occasionally book a show by ourselves depending on the size of the band.
For any booking requests, email Ryan Kelley at ryan@popsrocks.com
Out of town bands : I get tons of emails from out of town bands everyday. These bands are usually looking for little money, usually $100-$150 to help them get to the next venue. Unfortunatly, a band from several states away does not do very much for the club. We have tried this before and it does not work. Your best bet would be to try a show trade with local bands. They can set up a show with a couple of local bands and put your band on the show in exchange for the returned favor. Sorry but we, as a club, have no interest in booking these shows.
Opening spots for national acts:We occasionally get an opening spot for a natinal band. You can direct questions to Ryan Kelley at ryan@popsrocks.com. We only accept local bands for consideration. Our deal with the agents is that we will have the local bands sell tickets and help promote the show. The local bands can sell the tickets and keep a portion of the ticket sales.
We are looking for cover bands that are available to play Friday and Saturdays from 12am to 5:30am.
