About
Minutes to Midnight is a rock band for hire in Perth, WA.
Five pieces, loud, and no apology for it. Minutes to Midnight play Foo Fighters, AC/DC, Aerosmith, Kiss, INXS, Billy Idol, Lenny Kravitz and The Romantics, and the set list is long enough to be rearranged around whatever your night is. Everlong, My Hero, Rebel Yell, Basket Case, Blister in the Sun, What I Like About You, Land of 1000 Dances. They bring professional sound and lighting to every show, running their own mix off a digital desk. Pubs, clubs, parties, functions and corporate events. Give them ample power and somewhere near the door to unload. Perth based.
The show
Loud, tight and no pretending otherwise. Five players, professional sound and lighting on every show, and a set that keeps its foot down from the first song. They mix themselves off a digital desk, which is why the sound holds up in a pub room as well as it does at a bigger function. Expect a proper show rather than background music, and expect the volume to match the songs they've chosen to play.
On the day
Ample power for a five piece band with full sound and lighting, so check what your venue can actually deliver rather than assuming. They also need parking close enough to load in and out without carrying gear across a car park. Sort those two and the rest is theirs to handle.
Performance options
How they run sound depends on the size of the crowd. For a smaller room they mix themselves off a professional digital desk, and it holds up well. Once you're past a couple of hundred people a dedicated sound engineer comes along to ride the mix through the night, which is what a bigger room needs. For anything larger again, tell them the numbers and the venue and they'll work out what the show requires.
