Venue wanted !!

[PCwiz]

hello all, I am looking for a place for my band to play (I manage it and am not part of it) Band consists of 15 year olds however and so I am not sure wether this will limit the places they can play. Any information would be appreciated for venues around burnley (will travel to blackburn,accrington and other places etc) Thankyou very much, Brannan Coady

[Swinny]

What type of music do they play?

[PCwiz]

They play a lot of nirvana (this seems to be there favourite at the moment!) but they play some "lighter" stuff aswell. You know a place?

Thanks for the responce!

Hi PCwiz, I've just sent you an e-mail, but seeing as you're here, what are they called? Do they do any original stuff?

[Swinny]

I know hellbound allow bands to play on a saturday if you use neals link to there website on the main page you might be able to find out more the only other place I can think of is the carlton but these might be a bit much for 15 year olds hope Ive been able to help.

I don't live in Burnley now PC, but I know there used to be a few church halls like st,marks st,matts etc that used to let bands play,it may be an idea,hope they find someplace

Just to add PC we've been running a thread about young trouble makers,so it's good to know about youngsters doing positive stuff in their spare time! By the way you lot any good?? :) :) :)

Hi PCWiz, I think Hellbound sometimes have an under 18's night - not sure if they've had bands on those nights, but it might be worth asking on the hellbound board. I presume pubs are out because of the band members ages Swinny. Wonder if Quazi might have any advice?

hello there, i help run a club in Burnley if you want to send me an e mail will see if i can do anything for you, had a band down last week and drummer was only 10, so you are getting past it i think!

[PCwiz]

Thanks for responding everybody! This board is superb! Ill have a look around the church halls and I have sent hellbound an email! I have emailed you ollie about the club and hope to hear from you soon! Thanks very much everybody! anymore information greatly appreciated (and yes I think the band have a real talent and have recently won the "talent contest" star for a night at gawthorpe high school !)
