Geno's Rules and Information for bands that have a gig booked at Geno's Rock Club!!!!! Congratulations on your gig at Geno's! We are looking forward to your set. Here is some information about your gig that you may find useful. PROMO The club will send out a press release about all shows to all local outlets, so please send us your press releases and we will them and include them in our weekly mailings. We will post about your gig on our Facebook page and promote you online but we need you to do your part as well! Of course its always important to SEND FLYERS or drop them off at the club. Don't be lazy and send them a couple of days before the show. We would like them at least 2 full weeks before your gig. All dates are subject to change! Because there is cost involved in hosting a show, if there are no flyers and no promo by 48 hours before a show date, this may result in a show cancellation. Failure to confirm a final lineup 48 prior to show may also result in cancellation. BE PROACTIVE & COMMUNICATIVE, the contact staff at Geno's are happy to help if you encounter booking hurdles. MAIL: PLEASE SEND ALL POSTAGE TO: Geno's PO Box 4055 Portland, Maine 04101 FOR LOCAL DROP-OFF: Drop offS at the club can be made at 625 Congress St. Portland, Maine after 5pm (do not mail to this address, we will not get them!)

If you need someone to design a flyer for you please message us and we can give you the names of some local designers who make flyers for bands for a cheap rate!

After parking please make check in with Geno's staff to make sure that you are parked in the correct place and let them know which vehicles are yours.

A short sound check will be done right before your set. COVER SONGS We are a bar that enjoys original music.
