 BOOKING DOS

​

​

 

♦   DO check out our calendar to see if the dates you want are available.  Check out what we have scheduled and see if your proposal is too similar to something playing the day before or after your proposed date.  We like to have a good variety at Monk's

​

♦   DO send a detailed email booking@monksbarmt.com with your band information (social media and website links) and provide us with the date(s) you want to book and what type of show you want to do.  The more details about the actual show, dates and cost, the better.  Do keep it simple and to the point.

​

♦   DO send links to your social media.  We appreciate the links so we can easily find you and listen to your music. 

​

♦   Are you a local band?  DO come down to Monk’s and see what our venue is like.

​

♦   DO consider pitching a full bill (2-3 bands) if you have bands you want to play with.  We like this!

​

♦   DO respect all decisions made by the Booking Staff.  They discuss and consider each and every event very carefully.  Repeated emails or calling the Booking Staff will NOT change their decision.

BOOKING DON'TS

​

♦   DON’T send us generic Press Kits – it is a waste of your time and resources.

​

♦   DON’T send us a 20-page email listing every venue or show you've ever played, awards you have received, food you ate on your last tour.  We just don't have time to weed through all that information.  Keep it to the requested information from the BOOKING DOs Section.

​

♦   DON’T call, text or message us through social media with booking requests or to discuss event details – you will be referred to our email.  Don't call Bodega - you will be referred to our email.  Always email:  booking@monksbarmt.com.

​

♦   DON'T approach us during a show, while we are working, or even on our day off to pitch an idea or event.  Send us an email with the requested information (read above).  You will be referred to our email.

​

♦   DON’T send repeated emails, please give us time to check out your band and check our schedule with the dates you have provided.  Sending repeat emails just takes us longer to respond.
