SKB ENTERTAINMENT

S K B . E N T E R T A I N M E N T

SKB ENTERTAINMENT was established in 1998 by founder Jimmy King.



We book anything from Hip Hop, Deathmetal, Punk, Grind, Hardcore and anything inbetween. If you need a date booked, write us and we'll see what we can do to help.



I do not enjoy booking bands with bad attitudes. So if this is you, do not bother me.



F . A . Q ' S



(Q) Why should we promote?



(A) Simple, no one will come see you. If you don't bring anyone to your shows. You're pointless to me. Im not looking for Americas best unsigned talent. Im looking for bands that can & will try to bring a crowd. I want to atleast see you try, and if no one comes for youat least you tried.



(Q) We're a touring band. We just booked a show with you, but we accidently listed the wrong venue. What might happen?



(A) I will send you as many emails as I can about this. maybe even leave a couple rude comments if I see you've ignored me, but you NOT promoting your tour as well as you should lets me know you dont care as much as you shouldso why should I? If your guarantee means as much as you say it does, then promote each and every show like its your last.



(Q) We're not going to play your event because so & so said not to.



(A) Thats fine, but when something big rolls my way, don't email me asking to play it.and you know I always get good shows. I don't care where you play and I don't care who you book with.



(Q) We're a touring band from the other side of the U.S, can we have a 10 person guestlist?



(A) I ONLY allow 1-2 guest per touring band. Most of the time, your band doesnt do as good as you thought you would, so I need every person that goes through the door to count. I work too hard on these shows to just let every cute chick in for free. If you want a ridiculous guestlist, then lower your guarantee. Or, just focus on what you're supposed to. The guestlist should be the last of your touring thoughts.



(Q) Why does the _____ show cost so much?



(A) Because the band is asking for a high guarantee. In other words, every touring band has an asking price. More than half the time its waaaay more than what they're worth.



i will not tolerate bad attitudes. if you dont want to be in my citythen dont be in my city. I can't stand a lazy band. I hate to hear the excuse, "i would promote, but I dont have time". Im severely diabetic with neuropathy. I work in the construction field from 6am - 6pm. Im married with 4 kids, and still have time to book, promote and run my shows. So dont tell me you dont have time.

And to the local bands, even if you know you can't bring a crowd, I like to see you bust ass. All i ask from you is that you try.
