Steelin' Thunder, A Maine Steel Drum Band

1) How much room, and what accommodations, do you need?
Steelin Thunder needs a 20'x20' footprint from which to perform. If the performance is outside after dusk the host or sponsor must provide lighting for the musicians. If lighting is not sufficient the band will stop playing when they can no longer see their music or at the appointed time, whichever is first. No other utilities are required unless the host wants the band to provide an instructional aspect. In that case a microphone and sufficient PA system will be supplied by the host. If there is a threat of rain or inclement weather, tenting or other reasonable cover will be provided by the host.

2) What do you mean, "instructional aspect"?
We're happy to talk to your guests about how the pans are made, the various voices, and other interesting tidbits about steel drums. We need the PA so your guests can hear us.

3) What's the cost involved for booking your group?
Our 2008 pricing is $700 for a 2.5 hour performance. If your group is an NPO, we charge $600. And we say 2.5 hours, that's 2.5 hours of music! We rarely take breaks. If you need us for a longer time period, we can factor some breaks in to accommodate you.
