I've heard a lot of zines being created but never printed and continued due to problems with producing physical copies so my hope is to alleviate that problem by providing a DIY printing / publishing service. But we need zines to print yo!

Kind of in general; I've found contact for the Slowdown, & I'm familiar w/ 1% productions, but I wasn't sure how far a reach they have or if it's kinda venue specific

Yeah as far as I know, 1% has control/connections with The Slowdown, Reverb Lounge, Waiting Room, and The Sidney. Probably some bigger venues but that's out of scope. From there it's definitely venue specific. Petshop Gallery, The Breakroom, Church/Art House, Foxhole, Pussy Palace, etc, are all run independently and have their venue specific contacts. If you need some help finding those out you can talk to us through the 'message us' button at the bottom of the page.

Semi-Aquatic Ape Man & The Electric Help Orchestra is an open-to-all free improvisational experimental orchestra who's inaugural performance will be August 16th at 7PM in the Lake Zorinsky Park boat entrance parking lot. We will have a portable power supply and a battery powered PA, and will accept any instrumentalists - electric or acoustic. Anyone is free to show up and play, generators, power supplies, or battery powered amplification contributions are welcome and encouraged. We're hoping to build it into a regular happenin' hootenanny
I'll do my best to keep it updated as new bands join the page, but feel frere to notify me if someone is missing
Finally created an account, this website is very cool - very proud of everyone involved to create this
Also regarding the breakroom, since the venue is legal now with the fire marshall the address is public basically
Tower is cool but errr why is it called that when it’s just a house??

Hi! I have no clue if this is allowed in here but I moved to Omaha a few months back and have had a horrible time making new friends out here! I’d like to find some other girls to go to shows with because I’m far too anxious to go by myself and meet new people 😛 I used to go out all the time before moving and I have been excruciatingly bored l o l. My IG is @max1eeee if anybody is interested :D

Anyone know of any instrumental bands based in Omaha? I know a lot of the Lincoln ones but I'm looking for any flavor of rock or rock-adjacent as long as it's fully instrumental.

It was the Wild West of message boards. Basically unmoderated there were plenty of problematic things that popped up from time to time. But it was still a great place to form bands, meet friends, even future spouses in some cases. Now it's just a tightly sealed Facebook group with not as much music talk since most people on there have families and have moved on from music (or moved onto cover bands.) I'm one of the few on there still doing original music, not sure if that is sad or not but it's what I enjoy.
Pretty cool this site is here now though and I'm glad the music scene is still alive and well.

Thanks @Weatherford ! I have an idea for an instrumental event brewing and after a quick listen, The Sub-Vectors would be a great fit, so I'll reach out with a DM on Facebook with details.

Where might I find contact info for booking the Joslyn Castle Carriage House? Looking for an actual email address, not social media oligarch support, or phone number.
I would go to the music zone grand opening if I wasn’t out of town. They got some good ass bands playing that thing so don’t worry.
I noticed whoever puts the castle shows and venue on here put the contact in their profile.
I gotta tell ya,finding venues isn't a problem so much as trying to figure out how to contact the right person.
NOW the big question is if that's a typo in the email address.

The Blak Durt Experience on 97.3 posted saying they are looking for a band to fill a spot this Friday in Lincoln. It's a fundraiser for their station so there's no band payout but he's a great guy and will record an interview with the band to be played on the air.
It anyone is interested and available here's his post:

Hey, all. We are SUNGRAVE, a Post-Metal band from Denver. We're going on tour starting 11/7 and Omaha would ideally be our first stop, but we're having a bit of trouble gaining traction. Does anyone know any solid Post-Metal or Doom bands in the area who might want to make something happen?
Feel free to hit us up here or at sungravedenver@gmail.com.

My band, All Roads lead here, is post metal-adjacent. We haven't done any shows yet tho. Are working on getting around 6 songs ready, a 30-ish minute set. We might be down, not sure yet tho
We are all minors so it'd have to be some venue that's all ages
Soundwise our stuff is kinda shoegazey metal with some doom and blackgaze inspired stuff. We also got a post rock-ish song on the set
That's a bit from now so if needed we could probably add a few more songs to have a longer set

I checked out ARLH demo on Bandcamp. Good work! We might have a full lineup, but we'll hit you up in case we can make something happen.
