Anyone know of a venue with a function room and stage?

So that we can test all our gear and play with our sound in a mock gig environment?

Hey guys/Gals
We're looking for a pub/ club that has a decent sized stage that we could use on a monday or wed night in the next couple of weeks to start getting ready for gigging.
Wanna sort out who's got what gear and start working on the sound so that we can hit the ground running.

cheers

Scott

going back in time a bit i remember doing a gig at the ridgeway in addlington upstairs in a funktion room over the pub with a stage. and scott, we rehearse on wednesday at the pluckers but not this week. so its free to use 23rd this month. the downside of the ridgeway is the carry in and up.

Frankies Bar in Darwen....we rehearse there every tuesday. Great room with stage and you get left alone even though the bar is in the next room and punters can see ya through the windows.
Frankies Bar are on Northwestbands

There's the Bitter Suite in Preston, or the Last Orders on Church St in Preston as well.
