Many people have asked this question.  As of today, no one knows.  However several of the Palookas will be happy to converse with you about the band, music, or the possibility of us making large sums of money for doing what we love....hum....well, maybe even moderate sums of money! Contact either Jeff or Dave and they will try to answer your questions, and if they can't, well hey, you're no worse off than you were before.       

You can (Now!! Wow!!) email us at bookings@emilandthepalookas.com because we finally figured out how to get the buttons working on this website thing!!! We check our email everyday so we'll get right back to you.......you can also e-mail Emil(himself) at emil@emilandthepalookas.com, but we don't know how this gets to him!

Emil and the Palookas uses its own sound and light system.  For standard set up, staging area must be available for band's use at least one and one half hours prior to performance.  Exceptions and considertions may apply.  We love private parties and special events and will work with you to fulfill special needs or music.  Please call or email us for our current hourly booking fee. For business establishments or public pay events, we may consider playing for the door, or a portion thereof, depending on conditions, and size of the event, but normally, our MINIMUM charge is for 3 hours, and possibly a set up fee, depending on time, distance, and location. We do a number of charity events each year, for which, you may also inquire by email, or like the Palookas say, "go to da' horses mouth ta' get da' facts", call or Dave

Posters, media pictures, and picture files are available to our contracted cilents and the news media.  Just call Dave, Thanks!!
