[QUOTE="1111111:404346"]"Those kind of headliners want that kind of money to pay for all their expenses such as food, gas, etc. The problem is that if that headliner doesn't atleast draw 200-300 worth then they shouldn't get that much." 200-300 dollars worth is exactly 20-30 kids in the door with an average door cost at 10 dollars...even so, lets say the band draws 15 kids, so youre saying that they dont deserve 200 bucks? That is NOT alot of money. The promoter took them on, he should live up to whatever the deal is. "Sorry I enjoy doing math for some reason. If you'd like to go in depth a little more if a band tours 30 days making 300 a show and an estimated 50 dollars off merch sales a night they could pull in $10,500.00 for those 30 days; divide that by each member and each member could make $2,100.00 a month. " Lets say best case scenario, that much money is made....cut half of it for gas/travel expenses....also factoring in the probably 2 oil changes you will have to get while on the road for 30 days, and the fact that because of murphys law, no touring ever goes smoothly, expect some sort of van problems or a flat tire. if you make that much money on merch, youll probably take home a quarter of it or less, unless you, and not your label put up the 3000 it would cost to produce 100 hoodies. on top of this, that little thing called "your label recouping what theyve spent on you." Those cds you sell didnt come out of nowhere, so expect half or more of that to go right back to the record label So with whatever you have left, you might want to spend 2 out of 7 days a week at a hotel to be able to shower, and then the ocassional value meal at McDonalds. In the end you take no money home and if there is 5 bucks left, it goes back in the bands kitty. this wasnt an insulting post, its just reality...no band will ever make that money unless you are on quite a larger leve.[/QUOTE]
