You
can book us, Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby that is, for a house
concert. It's very easy - you just need a living room - though a
shed, village
hall,
garage,
greenhouse
or other outhouse might work just as well.
We've done a lot of these events ranging from a garden party at a
French chateau
to a ten foot square living room in Norwich where we had to squeeze
in between the TV set and the three piece suite. They've all been
a great success - no disasters as yet and some of our hosts have
even
gone on to staging regular house concerts with different artists.
Some house concert hosts gather together a group of fans, people
who are already well aware of what we do, and ask for donations or
a set
ticket price to cover our fee. Others cover the fee themselves and
invite friends who they think might enjoy it though they may not
have heard of us. The fee is negociable depending on distance, day of
the week and stuff like that. We always manage to sort it out to everybody's
satisfaction.
We've played for as few as ten people, all avid fans, and as many as
a hundred (some of whom were drunk and falling into the sherry trifle,
but that's another story).
We bring all the equipment we need, you don't have to supply anything
except electricity, a space for us to play in, some people to play
to, and possibly something to eat. Apart from that you might just have
to move the sofa.
And we even do requests (as long as we get a bit of notice).
