The following information is provide to give helpful background data to visiting artists: Contacting The Mersey House Although we have links to all the normal networking sites, FaceBook, MySpace, Sonicbids etc we normally conduct business with email to our normal address; merseyhouse@hotmail.com because of the volume of messages. Thank you for this. Cover Charges We almost never arrange door charges regardless of whether the artist thinks it appropriate. On the one occasion we did, the artist forgot/did not tell those performing with them. We will not make that mistake again. The artist concerned escaped back to mid-Canada never to be heard from again. We will always agree a fee before hand and this will be guaranteed Fees Any approach to the Mersey should be accompanied by a fee expectation. Size of Site We have a pub/restaurant which has held many parties up to 150 or more. Our theatre/recording studio holds approximate 100 and we have another private area that holds more than 30 for buffets. Hostel Accommodation We have accommodation for overnight backpackers/musicians at $20 plus tax per night. Overnight We welcome all our artists and provide a meal and accommodation for you as part of the package we negotiate. Sound Checks On all normal show days we do a sound check at 7.00 p.m. On other day time shows we will advise you of the sound check time. Performance We usually start at between 8.00—8.30 p/m and do two 45/60 minute sets, sometimes more when the night is hot and customers are enjoying. We are very relaxed and informal here, as we must be rural Nova Scotia and most if not all seem to enjoy it that way. Open Hours In the Winter we open at 11.00 and during the Summer we open at 8.00 until late.
