rob User Info... | Alright heres another question, do you(bands) play request a certain amount of money or do you just play for whatever is offered? Bars shows? all ages? - Thu, 8 Dec 2005 12:43pm | ||
H User Info... | Most bands around here go for a cut of the door, but if you consistantly bring in a good draw you could add in a cut of the bar sales, or just go for a pre-determined flat rate. I'm pretty sure my band goes for a flat rate for most of our shows, but sometimes we just get a jug of beer and the like. And once you start dealing with bigger numbers remember that contracts are your best friend. - Fri, 9 Dec 2005 12:38pm | ||

duncan User Info... | i can't remember the last time we got paid well for playing a show. matt at bosevus is really good at paying bands, usually enough to get drunk with. i'd rather play a show and not get paid a dime than not play a show at all. blair street, rah! - Sat, 10 Dec 2005 1:13pm | ||
