BACKLINE

We supply drums and a bass speaker cabinet and head! Please use our drums and bass setup to make load-in and changeovers easier. Feel free to bring your own breakables (cymbals, snare, etc); however, we have all of that if you prefer to use ours.

Drums: We have a 5-piece Premier Resonator kit plus hardware, Stagg brand cymbals (14" hi hats, 16" crash, 20" ride).

Bass rig: We have an Acoustic B410 4x10" bass cabinet, hitting 300w at 8ohms with a Gallien-Krueger Backline 250 Bass Head on top. The solid state GK 250 pushes 125W RMS at 8 ohms, and has a direct out (XLR) with pre/post switch, effect loop, and tuner out.

Guitar amp: We have a vintage combo amp for use, a Univox Stage 400. This solid state amp has 2 inputs, volume, clipping, bass, treble, reverb and master volume controls.  The spring reverb is nice and lush, creating washed out surf sounds.  The clipping controls a built in fuzz/distortion circuit, great for lofi drive tones and psychedelic 60's type leads.  This all runs into 2x10" speakers with an option to connect an 8ohm extension cabinet.

Keyboard: We have a Yamaha P-45 Digital Piano. With a weighted 88-key setup, 64-note polyphony, and 10 built-in voices, this is an industry standard stand-alone digital piano.

​

PARKING

Directly behind the shop/venue there are spots indicated as "INDY CD & VINYL EMPLOYEE PARKING ONLY" which, if available, are where you should land. PLEASE be sure you are not parking on the other side of this small lot marked as "Bazbeaux Parking Only," as these belong to our neighbor. If you park in the surface lot or alley next to the venue please be sure to pay for parking, as well as if you park at a meter. THEY WILL ticket your vehicle if you do not pay. If you have a van with trailer or bus PLEASE advance with the venue on arrangements for large vehicle parking. Once parked behind our shop please call our shop main number 317-259-1012 and let us know you have arrived, we will let you in the back doors for load-in unless it is already unlocked for you. Normal load-in time for a show with 8pm doors is around 5:30pm, as that is when our sound pro arrives and starts setting up. PLEASE ADVANCE WITH US, especially if you are needing an earlier or more complicated load-in. Normally we do reverse sound-checks, with the headliner checking first, direct support checking second, and so on. If you are the headliner we would expect you load directly to stage. If you are the local opener, we expect you to hang out and wait and high-five us. We would also appreciate you storing your deads and extra gear in the back hallway near the back 808 entry door - we have metal shelving there for you. PLEASE do not block the doors to the storage rooms - we put all the retail shelving for the record store in there and would hate to interrupt your sound check so we can wheel our stuff away. 

​

ETC

The 808 expressly forbids the use of AI-generate flyers, posters, and artwork to promote the show or as video backdrops. Please, hire a designer or send us your hi-res logos and photos and we will happily make you a poster.

If your event is a paid, ticketed, after-hours event keep in mind the earliest we can open doors is 8pm and our all-ages event sound curfew is 11pm. It is normally an impossibility we open doors before 8pm or advertise we will be opening earlier than 8pm, and this is in your best interest as an artist: we want to ensure you are given ample time for setup and sound-checking so that your event is set to be as good as possible.

If your event is a free in-store performance our hours at the record store are 11a-7p Mon-Sat and 11a-6p Sun. 

Indy CD & Vinyl carries Ernie Ball brand guitar and bass strings of all varieties, as well as guitar pick packs, guitar straps, guitar cables, instrument cables, patch cables, tuners, and more. No need to run to the nearest Guitar Center, we may have the emergency item you need here.​

We also have multiple cameras mounted through the venue that livestream shows on our branded YouTube channel, with synced audio via the sound board, ceiling-mounted Rode NT1 studio condenser microphones, or both. You can direct fans to https://www.youtube.com/@indycdandvinyl and have them click the LIVE tab.
