The Rock Factory

Update for June 2014 at The Rock Factory …

Welcome to www.therockfactory.net/about-us  – Our June update. Mark and I have colds… and our little toddler (almost 2) coughs through the night right now  – I really hope your health is better than our family’s at the moment… to banish the June blues, I guess we could write and record a wicked as song complete with 2-year-old whining!! The Storm from the night before and the resulting power cut had us on Wednesday night seeking out the closest place with candles and matches for sale and a food court with power, lights, cheap warm food and heaters! Luckily when we returned home later that night, power was blissfully restored! 🙂

Did you know that The Rock Factory just turned 10? We want to celebrate, but with the weather cooling down, we know school production, touring, and band recording season is just heating up! Plans are afoot for a belated birthday party at some stage; we will keep you posted!

New Pricing Options:

Thanks for your requests and feedback! We are adding these options for hiring sound equipment, lighting, stages, band backline and DJ gear…

  • A weekend rate (2 to 3 days) of 1.5x the day rate…
  • And we are also adding a weekly hire price of 2x our day rate! First-day full price, 2nd and 3rd days half price, the rest of the week free!

This will help bands on tours, touring bands, recording artists needing gear for a week in the studio and event organisers running multiple-day events such as school productions, theatre productions, multi-day festivals, expos etc…

We have some new babies to introduce to you since last year:
