Venues
In this section the venues where Zak's Lab operates will be featured.
For now, these are just some snapshots of the past.
There are several prospects at the moment and these will no doubt develop into venues soon.
First some pianos need to resurrected and refurbished and brought back to life.
Then the right equipment must be installed.
And then there will be music, piano music, the way it should be made.

Venues in sight
There are various venues in and around Cairns that have shown interest.
Zakslab first had to attend to a finalising the RSPCA upgrade in order to finance a proper vehicle keyboard and PA.
This holiday season might see some of those engaged as well as perhaps in Brisbane as there is a possible project for that area.
MOVED TO THE GOLD COAST
Yep, that is right. Just last week in fact. Venues approached to develop thus far is the Sheraton Hotel. Their baby grand piano is sadly tucked away and sans company. Also spoke to the son of a legendary entertainment agent. Someone with enough experience to understand what is set out on this site perfectly. What a shot in the arm. Thank you sir!
Moved to Gladstone
Yep COVID 19 certainly had its impact. Moved here to start Mobidoor Pty. Ltd.
Did some entertaining for a local political candidate and have prospects at the GEC and Herron Island.
Bororen Hotel will see a performance once restrictions are lifted.
Resident entertainer at Heron Island for January and February 2021
Open mic for Flavours restaurant at the Gladstone Marina.
Show at Calliope Bowls Club.
Music for Rotary / RSL function in Gladstone.
Appearances as keyboard player with Rob Hopkins Clyde Cameron, Wayne Dunnet and others for the Gladstone Country Music Club at the Queensland Rail Institute,
Booked as piano bar entertainer on Wednesdays evenings at the Gladstone Bowls Club.
Several private functions in between.
Prospects on the horizon include two Hotels, a Yacht Club, Entertainment Centre as well as some music festivals and talent quests.

Residency
In this scenario Zak's Lab is resident in one place or on one Island and therefore the attraction becomes localised as an institution. This either services new groups of tourists or it builds a regular clientele that results in contingency income.
|
Circuit
In this scenario Zaks' Lab creates a following that visits different venues and experiences their different offerings with regards to cuisine, cocktails and ambiance. A social media following is augmented by others attracted by advertising.
|
Phenomena
In this scenario, the idea becomes a cultural phenomenon that replicates and spreads beyond the immediate boundaries. If this approach can instil such a revolution in approach to entertainment, then Zak's Lab would have succeeded as a laboratory which produced a step up in the appreciation of music.
