Frequently Asked Questions |
|
| How much time does the band need to set up? |
| |
| Set up times vary depending upon the package you have chosen, access
to the venue, space etc. Allow approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour
to set up and complete the soundcheck. Whilst set up times are approximate,
rest assured that all these important details are discussed beforehand
so that there will be no interruptions to speeches, meals, or the
general smooth running of your event. |
| |
| Where are the band available to play? |
| |
| Athena are based in the North West of England. We will travel anywhere to play, but charges may be added to the overall cost depending on the distance travelled. Please contact us for an accurate quote. |
| |
| Can I see the band live before I book them? |
|
| Obviously we recognise that your event is special and you will want
to be as certain as possible that Athena is the right choice for you.
Athena play regular live public gigs in addition to private function
work. Please contact the band for the best
available date and location for you. Remember that the set list at
a public performance may vary considerably to what the band would
play at a function type event! |
|
| Why is there no 'fixed price' to book the band? |
|
| Each engagement is unique. It is very important to us to discuss
exactly what you would require before we can establish the price.
This is due to tremendously variable costs incurred by distance to
be travelled, access, and the time the band is required to be at the
venue. These factors affect the overall price. |
|
| My Fiance and I have a 'special song' not on your set
list. Can you play it for us? |
| |
| If it's possible for a five piece band to do your song in a "live" context, we'll do it!! |
|
| Why are there different packages? |
|
| This is so the band can be as flexible as possible to meet our client
requirements and different budgets. You can be confident that Athena
are committed to a high quality performance, no matter which package
you opt for.....after all, our reputation depends on it! |
|
| Is it possible to hear the band? |
