Note: Artists approaching venues on this list should be aware that CMEAS and participants have spent                          
four to five years establishing some of the contacts below. We request that you do not use our                          
organization as a reference unless we have agreed to represent you. We should also caution international                          
acts interested in booking in the UK that most venues book at least 5 months in advance and                          
often as much as a year (this is why we plan our events a year ahead) CMEAS is willing to advise bands                          
interested in playing in the UK, but we would expect some collaboration in return (for example, US gigs for UK bands)
