Newer Nanaimo band considering settin up a gig at Evo but not so sure if it is worth the while. Need two Vic metal bands to play with (3 optional dates in May), but unless we sell a bunch of tix ourselves, we're screwed for $$$
Any bands wanna play or advise, let us know.

So, three bands playin get 100 people in there, that will cover the sound, leaves about a couple hundred to divide by three? We definetly want to play there but if it end up costing us $100 to play then its not worth it. Anyone need a opener at Logans! - Sun, 21 Feb 2010 10:50am

I dont think you get charged for the sound guy. Honestly i think everyone has a misconception about evo. all the door sales go to the sound guy. Once that is paid off 100% of what is left the bands get divided between them. Plus you can sell your own ticket 100% profit - Sun, 21 Feb 2010 7:54pm
