Who's On Offer

We get lots of e-mails from people who want to appear at the Barrelhouse. Sometimes we get e-mails from people who think we are a venue, such as "Colin somebody's Hypnosis Experience" (don't they read the website?) but many are from established and aspiring bands who are worth hearing. So we thought we would list some of them for your consideration. Let us know what you think of any of them if you are one of our attendees, albeit occasional. We would like to hear from you.
