Double Or Nothing - Live Showreel
It was a pleasure to mix this band for the first time and also one of the very bands who all use my in-ear monitors. What a great bunch to work with. As usual, better if you listen through headphones and HD settings on Youtube. Enjoy.

Jason Dale - Live Elvis Showreel
And here it is, tag and share away folks. Thank you to Jason Dale and Julie Pomeroy and all who came out for another fantastic night at the club! It is a must to listen through headphones for that full sound immersion and to set Youtube settings to HD. Enjoy
Jason Dale - Live Elvis Showreel Recorded at Ystrad Rhondda RFC on Friday 1st October 2021. Jason is an accomplished tribute to the late, great, king of Rock N Roll, Elvis Presley. Jason als...
A taster of last night before Elvis (Jason Dale) performed. The audio is of Jason. Full video to follow at some stage today. Don't forget tonight, we have a first time band, Double Or Nothing, FREE entry
[09/30/21] If your a tribute band, who's guitarist happens to look like Slash, then good luck when large venues and theatres book you for the fee you told them, as tickets sales will and should cover the 'top of the food chain' in bands costs. However, dont expect to ask a small 120 max venue to pay the same as a 500 to 1,000 seater or standing venue on a one size fits all fee as ticket sales wont cover the cost. Cut your cloth, even if one of your band menbers does look like Freddie. You're just a covers band that plays one bands songs all night plus VAT. A mere observation and not a rant. π

[09/10/21] If you are picking up tickets for any event, you need to pay, 2 years ago was a nightmare with the amount of IOU slips I had to go through. Hope you understand. πβ€
[09/07/21] Tickets are in for Devious 11th December Β£5.00. Boxing Night, Mr Hate Β£5.00 and NYD Β£8.00 for The Big Guy and The Strip Lights. You will note prices have not gone up and we are one of the least expensive venues if not thee least expensive for that time of year for entertainment. Don't leave buying them until the last minute (you know who you are) the last minute brigade. This year once sold out thats it, no favours. β€π€

Our Story
The branding will belong to Ystrad Rhondda Rugby Club. All people are welcome at our venue, there is no exclusiveness as we try to set ourselves apart from the rest.
Bands that wish to play this venue, please bear in mind that under our licence there is a STRICT restriction on the use of external PA systems used by bands because of non controllable dB levels by the manager/licencee. This will be reviewed by RCT in future providing we have no complaints about noise pollution. This was strictly enforced by the HSO at RCT, a copy of which can be seen on request, this was due to complaints from some neighbours in the past.
However, you will be pleased to know that we have an in-house dedicated band PA system with a very experienced sound man who will mic up vocals, drums, back-line amps, line out for keyboards, click and backing tracks, any other instrument is catered for. We have FOH set up of 2 JBL PRX800 3 way active tops lopped to 2 Mackie 2 wayβ15" speakers. Behringer X32 digital desk with 18 ins and 8 sends. We have seven stage monitors if needed plus the use of Sennheiser top of the range in-ear monitors, 12 ceiling speakers around the venue plugged into desk. Shure mics, AKG clip on mics, overhead mics, DI boxes, mic stands, lights, lasers and haze machine. This in house PA service is NOT optional but compulsory as we wish to keep our licence, so if we book you or you request to book a gig, bear this in mind. If you read all the reviews from bands you will see that we have a great sound and set up notwithstanding that we know the sound acoustics of the venue better than gigging bands.
We have a discretionary budget for cover bands and anything over Β£250 has to go through the committee as we are a free to enter venue and do not charge our patrons. Tribute bands we will have now and again and because of their hierarchy of fees in the food chain, they will have to be approved and ticket only if approved. Bands always get a very good welcome from the promoter and club. These are the terms and can be updated once certain restrictions are removed, so please don't insist on bringing your own.
Please enjoy the venue and respect us and our neighbours as we aim to make your experience a good one. Feedback is always welcome.
