:: Do ::

• Send a myspace message to Brando at MySpace.com/BrandoVonBadsville or Email Von_Badsville@yahoo.com
  
• Send us your myspace so that we can hear your sound.
  
• Come down to Spike's Bar and see what our venue is like (21 and over only).
  
• We always recommend Touring bands to have at least 2 local bands on a bill (which we will choose).

PROMOTE YOUR SHOW! Myspace, your website, flyers, posters, local papers, word of mouth.

:: Don't ::

• Don't send unsolicited CDs/Press Kits â€Â" it is a waste of your time and resources and they will most likely become coasters.
  
• NEVER call us with your booking requests. We only work through MySpace email.
  
• Don't keep emailing us over and over about your band. Once is enough. Badgering and over persistance will annoy us and you won't get a show.
  
• Don't ask to play here unless your whole band is over 21. Come back and see us when you all are of age.
  
• Don't contact us if you suck and you know that you suck, save both of our times and practice more before you hit us up for a show. Also, don't tell us you have a draw when you don't and then you clear the room.

All shows are 21+ only.

Mondays: 50s, Rockabilly (Neo/Trad), some Psychobilly, Surf, Garage, 50s R&B, DooWop. (No cover-$5)
Tuesdays: No Bands
Wednesdays: 80s night. OCCASIONALLY bands but dont count on it.
Thursdays: Ska, Punk & Reggae night. OCCASIONALLY bands but dont count on it either
Fridays: Touring and proven local bands 9pm-2am (cover varies)
Saturdays: Available for Private Parties,  Call for info (626)288-4366.
Sundays: CLOSED.

We prefer to not do more than one touring band on a bill unless they are a proven touring act.

If you have ideas for a bill let us know and we'll try to find a spot for you on our calendar. If you are an out of town band and would like to play Spike's, just ask a few local bands to contact us and jump on the show with you. That way everybody gets paid!
