Q - How much space does the band need to set up all of the gear?  
A – Please click to see our
stage plot.   There are five musicians in
the band and we prefer an area that’s at least 20’ wide and 15’
deep.  We also need space for our sound system board (see the stage
plot).

Q – Does the band have its own sound system? What about lights?
A – We do have our own pa/sound system.  It is suitable for most
indoor and outdoor events that have no more than 300 people.  An
outdoor event with more than 300 people may require the services
of a professional sound company.  We have several
recommendations if a sound company is required. We do have our
own LED stage lights.

Q – How long does it take for the band to set up and tear down its
equipment?
A – Once we arrive at a venue it takes about 2 hours to unpack, set
up and sound check our equipment.  At the end of an an event we
can usually tear down our equipment and be ready to leave in about
1 hour.

Q – What are the power requirements?
A – We bring all the required equipment but at the venue we will
need access to at least 8 electrical outlets within 20’ of the stage for
the band equipment and if stage lights will be used we will need an
additional two outlets.  We will also need 2 outlets for the
equipment at the sound board.  

Q – How much does the band charge?
A – The price for booking the band varies depending upon several
factors. Please call Bob at 925-813-9353 or email us at
sixstring@sixstringband.net and we can give you a customized bid.
