Notice to bands:Please use the booking email (ELBevents AT gmail DOT COM) for all booking requests. Myspace is not for booking(seriously, Mr. Myspace has nothing to do with booking!), it is unorganized and unsearchable. Email please. If you don't, I will likely just delete your message
The ELB is Emmanuel Lutheran's basement (ELB, we are clever aren't we?).
It is kind of hard to miss being a giant church. It, however, is not a strictly Christian venue. It is for all bands, you may have to hold back a bit, but not completely.
A portion of the proceeds from the shows go to the ELC High School Youth Program.
NOTICE. Please be aware there is no drinking or smoking allowed on the premises, keep it off Emmanuel Lutheran Property please. These shows are in conjunction with the Youth Group and are all ages, so keep it safe and friendly for the young ones. One person can ruin a good thing for the many. Don't be that person. Oh and please also note, some one has ruined it for gum chewers now too, so please don't bring gum into the church
We just want to let people know, if we asked you to be our friend it is because we thought we have something to offer you and people you know may enjoy. It is our goal to spread the word about our shows and sometimes other people's. The best way to do that is lots of myspace friends. We are always around so feel free to message us, or leave comments, we respond to dang near everything sooner or later. Now, you may look at our list of bands and think "gee nothing here I care about" and dismiss us. Well, the thing is, we can't get the bands you want without your opinions. We are staying small now, but we have the experience and means to bring in touring bands, as long as we have the room for them.
So you should probably go look at the last comment you left me. haha. I honestly never saw it until today, and it sort of made me laugh. Although I'm in a coffee shop so it was more of a smile, because if I would have laughed I would have looked crazy.
