It is exactly the same concept as his http://www.mickarcher.com/dueling.htm

dueling pianos, but with a quintet.

Visit Mick’s website now, to find out about him and what he does  . . .

http://www.mickarcher.com/ , and THEN read on.

To quote Mick:

" There will be a huge tip tank in the middle of the stage, request slips and perhaps a menu,

and we will play anything they want for a minimum of $5 ( and we will stop it for $6, etc.).

If someone wants to sing it costs 20 bucks.

We can have guest artists sit in, but this is not an open mic!

We meet once, probably at Curtis Hall in The Fine Arts Building.

We rehearse for an two hours and then Mick starts the video camera rolling.

Each of the three singers should have 5 tunes that, combined, represent a huge spectrum of music

(i.e., Sinatra, Elvis, Beatles, disco, new wave, 80′s hair band, hip hop, Irish, blues, C&W, etc.).

Mick will have the video edited into an EPK and put up on a page on his website/facebook.

We’ll be playing for chump change on off-nights rock clubs to start,

but then Mick will pitch it for actual money gigs.

Mick will be responsible for booking and providing the P.A., lights, etc.,

and will take leader cut, but members who create work for the band will

be compensated. Like all of his bands,

whoever makes the commitment to take the time, make the video,

and put their name behind the project

will get first call. He will NEVER put a member in the position of

having to turn down a better paying gig as long as they are responsible

for their own subs. He expects to be about 3 deep at every position,

so don’t worry about your calendars. This will not be a crappy cover band,

but rather a humorous extension of our various solo careers.

It’s an easy sell, he already has clubs and agents interested".

Penny Road is a total rock club with two stages: The Main Stage & The Underground. We will be playing the Underground Stage. This is where the original rock indie bands like us perform. There is a cover that gets you in the club for the whole night but please mention at door that you are here to see The Rick Weeds Band. If we have a good turnout we could get a Saturday show with better time slot.  Come on out & have a good time & meet the band & enjoy some music. They serve food & also have a beer garden where you can smoke. We will be performing the album “It’s True” in its entirety.

Penny Road Pub, 545 Penny Rd., South Barrington, IL.
