Rockshow Productions was founded in 2002 to give local bands another outlet to play (and me somthing to do to stay involved). Through the course of that time we have had some fun times, met some good people and good bands. We have Booked bands from the eastern Pennsylvania, Ohio, Massachusetts, New York, West Virginia, and Michigan. As well as well-established local and regional bands form all around the Pittsburgh and Erie areas. We continue to strive to bring you, the fans, or other bands looking to network some of the best music around. While we mainly focus on hard rock, metal, and hardcore, we have booked ,in the past: ska, punk, jam bands, blues, and acoustic acts. We support anyone who is out there working to make them selves better and trying to bring the best music they can to the fans that continually come to and support the local DIY shows.Since we mostly focus on the harder genre's music if you are from a genre not near metal we will eagerly listen to your material but it is harder to book you on one of our shows. But we will work hard to send you to one of our affiliates and friends to try our best to get you a show.Now I bet you guys in bands are wondering how we work. It is rare that I will book a band I haven't heard or seen. so usually no demos=no shows unless of course I've checked you out before. Please try to make a quality recording, unless you are amazing and have the recommendation of Ozzy himself you more than likely have a real shitty chance of getting booked, it is extremely unprofessional to try and get your band booked with the disclaimer "sorry for the shitty recording". There are studios that are as cheap as $20.00 an hour for a half decent recording, if you have even a minimum wage job their is no reason for a shitty recording.Right now we primarily book at the Monaca VFW in Monaca Pennsylvania(45min north of Pittsburgh). We are not affiliated with them we just rent the hall from them.Payment, based off of what we make at the door. Keep in mind we are trying to keep the shows cheap for the kids and music fans alike so on top of that we have to pay the VFW their Rental Fee and the sound guy his fee. What you make is based off of what is made after that. Email for further questions.
thanks for your time and i hope to see you at our next show whether you are a fan or in a band!
