we don't do it here.  i'm sorry.  you absolutely have to go through TRANSMISSION ENTERTAINMENT.  don't be scared... they're good people.  i'm telling you all this because i wish i could personally respond to all the messages i get here about booking at MOHAWK, but i can't.  and even if i could, i don't do the booking, so i wouldn't really be of much use to you anyway.  so please, please, please direct your booking inquiries to TRANSMISSION ENTERTAINMENT.  i hate to leave bands feeling ignored when they write to this site...

thanks for reading this, spread the word, and i'll see you all at KRS-ONE.

We are now scheduling interviews for our door staff (and bartenders). We are adding more people for the fall, to help handle a load of great new shows. We are a laid back group, work as a team, love what we do, and love the folks who come here. If you want to be a part of that, come by the bar between 5-9 on Wednesdays and Thursdays and ask for Marc. We will go from there.

To those of you that purchased Pinkertones tickets, ticket alternative will be refunding your money today. For those of you that had the vision to stay and dig on Astronautolis and then experience some White Denim, cheers to you. We would like to issue a special thanks to the boys of White Denim for jumping in last minute and playing some songs. You are scholars, gentlemen, and viking warrior kings. And we love you.

Cheers to all,

Yo. This is a note and special thank you to Gary "152" Meyer, Outlaw Attorney and Rock and Roll Negotiator for the Mohawk Austin. You see, Gary is like the wolf. He comes in, fixes shit, books sweet shows, and takes off in his mazarati to go catch a bocci ball game in Prague. We dont know where we lives...or even where he is from..we just know that he rules.

Right now, hes in a chopper somewhere, talking on a sat phone trying his best to get Megadeth back together. Gary, when you come back, we will have a whiskey waitin on you at the bar. And a half smoked pack of camels. The Mohawk would not be the Mohawk without you.
