How much does the band charge?
We will be delighted to give you a quotation if you email us information such as: date, type of event, location, performing times, number of guests and your contact details. We will normally ask for a 10 % deposit. This gives you confidence that Old Dogz...New Trix are committed to play at your event.

How long do you play for?
We typically play for two one-hour sets, starting 9.30 pm, ending midnight. As no two events are the same we are happy to adapt our play times to suit you.

How big should the stage be?
Our usual minimum stage requirement is 6 metres wide by 3 metres deep. If you have any questions regarding this then please email us.

Do you provide your own PA and Lighting?
Yes. For all except large venues we provide our own lighting system and a state-of-the-art PA at no extra charge.

What power supply do you need?
We need a minimum of two double 13A sockets in the stage area.

How long does it take for the band to set up?
For venues where we use our own sound and lighting equipment it takes 90 - 120 minutes from the time we arrive to be fully set up and sound checked.

Are sound checks noisy?
Yes!

Are you Insured?
We have public liability insurance and our electrical equipment is tested for electrical safety (PAT tested).

Does the band need changing facilities?
The band members appreciate somewhere that is private to change. Please discuss this with us if it is a problem.

Are you loud?
Since when was live rock 'n' roll quiet?! By modern standards Old Dogz...New Trix is not particularly loud. We play at an appropriate volume for those who want to dance (not necessarily for those who want to sit and talk!!). We have a sound level meter and always perform at safe volumes.

Can you do outdoor bookings?
Yes. We are happy to do outdoor or marquee events. You will need to provide adequate protection against bad weather, particularly driving rain, and electrical supplies should be fitted with residual current devices (RCDs). A dry stage is important as it is unsafe to place our electrical equipment on damp ground. It is surprising how far sound travels outside, so we suggest that you seek agreement of anyone who lives nearby.

Can I request songs?
Yes. We are always keen to learn new numbers, so if you have a particular song you would like that is not on the playlist, we will do our best to rehearse it for your event - please agree this with us at least four weeks in advance. If there is a song you do not want us to include, then please let us know in advance.
