DCxPC Live - Sunday, November 8 - A Benefit for L.O.U.D.
Thanks so much for playing the Sunday, November 8th show at Snapper Magee’s! I’m stoked to see each of you play and to work together to make this night a banger. We’ve got a killer lineup.
This show is a benefit for L.O.U.D. (Latin Outreach, Unity and Development), a Kingston-based nonprofit organization that empowers the local Hispanic and immigrant community by connecting people with resources, offering advocacy, and celebrating Latino culture.

Timing: Please stick to your scheduled time. DCxPC Live prides itself on putting the punk in punctuality.
Running on time keeps the night smooth for everyone, and it’s always better to leave people wanting more than wishing you had played one song less. I’ll have a timer onstage.
If you break strings, bring a backup guitar. String changes won’t extend your set. If your amp catches fire...that’s another story.
PARKING & LOAD-IN
Street parking and several nearby municipal lots are free all day Sunday. If you can’t find a spot close by, feel free to double-park in front while unloading. We’ll help carry gear.
GEAR / BACKLINE
The following shared backline will be available:
Drums: Tama 4-piece kit with a snare stand, two boom cymbal stands, a ride-cymbal extension arm, and a hi-hat stand.
Even with a shared kit, drummers must bring their own breakables:
Cymbals
Snare
Sticks
Throne
Bass drum pedal
Guitar / Bass: Two Peavey 4x12 guitar cabinets and one Hartke 4x10 bass cabinet are available. These are cabinets only, so bands must bring their own heads.
If you need to use your own gear, such as a combo amp, please let me know in advance.
All cabinets and drums will be mic’d.
MERCH
I’ll provide one 8-foot rectangular table, one 6-foot rectangular table, and a fitted wood surface that I cut to play over the foosball table. There are also two Snapper tables I can put together, plus shelves in the window bay.
HOSPITALITY
Each band member will receive a $5 food ticket toward any food at the food truck outside, or if there is no food truck available, I’ll order a buffet of Chinese food. Please let me know if anyone in your band has are vegans or have any allergies.
I’ll also have a case of room-temperature bottled water.
Each band member gets one drink ticket, good for a beer, a well drink, or a nonalcoholic option.
Each band member also gets a free DCxPC Live T-shirt.
Rough Draft, a coffee shop, is a couple of blocks away.

PROMO
I’m printing:
11x17 posters
8.5x11 flyers
Handbills
I’ll post them around Kingston, New Paltz, Rosendale, Saugerties, Woodstock, Poughkeepsie, Newburgh, the Catskills, and surrounding areas.
If you’re local, or have local friends, DM me a mailing address and I’ll send some out.
Please tag all bands, the venue, and DCxPC Live in your posts. Instagram only allows five collaborators, so I’ll likely alternate among the bands and venue.

Savannah, DCxPC Live’s Production Manager, will design several IG reels for me to post in the week leading up to the show.
