Alex and Jackie handle all booking through Alex's Bar Booking Application. Our fabulous new Alex's Bar Booking Application is hosted on Google App Engine, so you will have to login to start, which protects your information & privacy.
:: Do ::
- Log into Google, register, and a request a show at Alex's Bar Booking Application
- Come down to Alex's Bar and see what our venue is like (21 and over only).
- PROMOTE YOUR SHOW! Myspace | Facebook, your website, flyers, posters, local papers, word of mouth. See our Media Resource section for help with promotion.
:: Don't ::
- Don't send unsolicited CDs/Press Kits - it is a waste of your time and resources and they will most likely become ninja stars or coasters.
- NEVER call us with your booking requests. And please do not email us, we only work through Alex's Bar Booking Application.
- Don't ask to play here unless your whole band is over 21. Come back and see us when you all are of age.
Alex's Bar has shows Thursday through Sunday nights. All shows are 21+ only.
We will do an occasional Wednesday show, but don't count on it.
