The Five-O is located directly across from the campus of NC State. During the school year this is a great stop for touring bands to stop and do an exposure gig for the thursday night 'free' showcase.

We will not book shows on Wed., and we prefer to book rockabilly and swing on Fridays, but the other days of the week are negotiable. Saturday night is traditionally Goth-industrial night, but a variety of bands could be booked.

On weeknights, we believe in the early show. Most shows will start by ten and wrap up around midnight. Mon. and Tues punk shows have been successful and we look to build a solid showcase tradition on thursdays.
