If you are interested in getting involved in a new bands night and a chance of regular gigs please get in touch. We are looing at Wednesday or Thursday nights for new bands and Friday or Saturday nights for regular work.

All you need to do is send me a message.

Jason.

Cheers mate. I have been asked by a pub in Burnley whose regulars love the magazine to, to set this up for a pub that has not really been holding live music events.

I am hoping to find brand new talent... especially student bands, so we can get regular nights going. For now I will keep the name of the pub silent, just to add to the mystery but hopefully there are a few bands out there who would like to try out their first ever gig or those looking for regular work.

Where do you pick up the mag then? Thanks for the kind words about it. Its been hard work setting up but found it to be fun too!

Jason.

Hiya Jason, just knocked you an email across.. I'm pretty sure I was given a copy of 100mph in the pub in lancaster on Friday night by the guy who organises mobile chaos rally - he was singing its praises!

Hi Jason, please consider us when you start booking bands for Fri/Sat nights. We pretty much play all over NW but not been to Burnley yet, that is if this venue will suite a loud Punk band.

Dean.

Hi Jason,
Are you looking for covers bands on weekends? If so I'd like to offer our services for Saturdays next year. We have played Burnley before but on a Friday it's a long way to get across after work from this side of t'Pennines.

Hi Jason,
If you think a Soul/Motown band with a Female singer would go down well, we would love to do it.
Singer lives in Colne, so not far for her.
cheers,
Stuart

After speaking to a few people the pub in question has now said they want the bands to be Thursday and Friday nights.

100mph magazine will review all bands that play their too and put photos, write up and link on our website and in the magazine.

We will also be inviting bike clubs along so potential of future gigs at rock nights and rallies of bike clubs too!
