Thumb Down over 18 to play in the tunnels?!?!?!

Hey there. Does any one know if it is true that all members of a band have to be over 18 to play in the tunnels?!

I wouldnt imagine this is true, however, if a person is under 18, are they restricted in gigs they can play?

Cheers

Steve

I wouldn't know about that, you'd probably be best to call the Tunnels though, rather than relying on this thread, which will most likely be full of speculation rather than fact.

Depends on the night, depends on the promoter.

The only place that has a blanket 18+ for all bands with no exceptions is the Malt Mill as far as I'm aware.

I'm the assistant promoter at the Tunnels and I can safely say that is bollocks!

I've seen under 18s playing at the malt mill. Also someone from the malt mill posted in another thread that they let under 18s play there.

Yeh Cloud, I am afraid you are wrong.
I did hear of O' Neils nto letting a band play because one of their members was under 18, but I think that is it. Maybe drummonds on the weekend.

Yeah im not too sure about the malt mill situation, I used to work there, and i seem to remember a band having a bit of trouble getting a gig as the were <18. I think they played in the end though, maybe their just not too keen on it.
