I am here for Networking

About Me

Oi Oi Oi!

I'm a promoter (sort of) who likes putting on ska bands and punk bands. skater punk, hardcore, street punk, dub, reggae, old/new style ska, skacore, etc. i like political stuff but its not essential.

My plan is to keep putting on smaller gigs around the south-east London area with the aim of improving the reputation of South London music. Theres fantastic bands and great venues here regardless of what people say. I work with other promoters sometimes but i'm only interested in working with bands and promoters who are in it for the music, not the money (there isnt much anyway).

For touring/out of town bands:I have and will continue to put on bands from outside London but dont be offended if i cant offer you a gig, i take a risk everytime i put on a gig and i often end up out of pocket so its difficult for me to put on a band with no local fanbase.

For the London bands: I want to get some big touring bands in to headline bigger venues and have the local talent in support. Me and my fellow promoters will be picking the support based on the smaller gigs so bare that in mind.

I only want to put on bands who are willing to be co-operative and respectful to the other acts, I dont want greedy bands and I want people to be willing to share equipment and do a little bit of promotion aswell. Its not too much to ask is it?

No Racists or homophobes either!

I dont think running order has ever been accurate to the flyers so make sure you get there at the start so you dont miss the band you came to see.

Anyway If you are interested in playing let me know and I'll try to sort something out init.
