Contact the venue you wish to play at, see if you can get into a "battle of the bands" show. When you book a concert, that venue expects whoever booked the concert to pay them. If you expect enough of a turnout that you'll recover that cost, it's all good, but if you're not established enough, you may want to reconsider your approach, and see if you can set up a show with several other bands (to split the cost), get into a "battle of the bands" setup, or get in touch with people who normally book shows and see if they have a lineup they can add you into.

Most concerts are set up either by the venues themselves, or by a third party. In the case of the third party, they'll have to pay the venue, they'll have to pay the bands, etc, and they'll use this and the anticipated turnout to determine what the cover charge will be. If you're a no-name band and can't produce much of a turnout, then the venue might expect to charge a $20 - $30 cover fee, which simply isn't going to work out well for you and an unknown band.

So you're much better to try getting in with a show that's already set up, rather than try booking a venue exclusively for your band.
