Hi, y'all.
A Brooklyn art-rock/spoken-word band called Witches in Bikinis (six women dressed as witches in bikinis, backed by a four-piece band of blokes) contacted us (Mister Neutron) about playing at the Coney Island Surf Festival on the boardwalk at Coney Island on Saturday, Aug. 11. We're totally doing it -- mostly so we can look at the witches in bikinis.
They want to know if anyone else is interested in playing. There are a few slots open.
Let me know, and I'll pass you on to the head witch.
This event is not to be confused with the Coney Island Rockabilly/Surf Festival, which takes place the following weekend. We couldn't play that one because my bro is in Indiana visiting the in-laws. Poor bro!

What's the pay? We are planning a trip to NY, and are trying to book enough shows to make it worth the trip.

hi there.
no pay. there might be some tips, and there's always merch sales, but that's about it. the usual -- at least around here.

hope you can make it, ironmaiden! beastie boys, huh? i've been thinkin' it might be time to check out one of their cds -- finally.
and, as for web sites for the two events, not really. these seem to be low-budget, spur-of-the-moment jobs. however, the aug. 18 rockabilly event has a myspace page:

very cool you guys are doing a surf show there. I was just at the hotdog eating championship over the holiday. I will contact my friends band from Levittown, NY. Maybe they would be interested in auditioning. They are older fellas, but they kick ass.
