The
Union Sports Annex has a couple
of opportunities for you band to
play at our facility.
We offer regular Band
Nights on
Friday and Saturday evenings during
the Fall
(September to early-December) and
Spring (late-January to early-May)
semesters in the Sport
Court.
All of these shows are 'door gigs'
where the band gets a portion of
the cover
charge. These shows traditionally
begin at 9 p.m. or 10 p.m. and run
until about 1:30 a.m. We have a
good sound system that can
support
a
large
band and lighting.
In addition,
we
have one of the largest stages in
Southeast Wisconsin (24'x16' or
32'x12').
We also offer Annex
Acoustic Lunches. Acoustic soloists,
duets or trios perform in the restaurant
between noon and 2 p.m. on select
Fridays
during
the Fall and Spring semesters. Since
there is no cover charge for these events,
we usually offer a small guarantee and
a meal to performers.
To be considered for
a Friday or Saturday night gig
or a Friday Annex Acoustic Afternoon performance,
please mail a press kit (should include
a recording, photo, bio, etc.) to the
address below. Please note that
we don't accept electronic press
kits at this time.
